So who's singing Thriller next week?

On Xtra Factor, Brian (the choreographer) said that someone will take on one of the most iconic music videos ever. Being Halloween, I think it is a given that he meant Thriller.

So, who do you think will have this song? I don't really think it will fit in with anyone really. They need someone to do the dance and sing... I would have said Fleur for the dancing, but I would have thought they would get a boy to do it (and not Andrea because he did a MJ song in the first show and will probably keep getting the same old ballads). So, Paul, Ben, Jack? I doubt Jay would get it.

Or for visual effect, I can see Stereo Kicks do it, as it would fit in with the amount of people in the video doing the choreography?

    Probably Stevi

    It's not going to be Andrea, Paul, Jay or Ben as they are basically bland ballad singers.

    Similarly Lola and Lauren have done nothing but slow songs either.

    Really it can only be Stevi or OTY or stereo kicks; although again the latter haven't done anything upbeat either

    Nah, Stevi needs something that is more of a joke...

    I hope no one does Thriller because would be too cliché

    This show is pretty good at cliche song choices though...

    Dressed as a zombie, massive crowd of backing dancers, copying the iconic dance - I can't see it being anyine else.

    Brian pretty much confirmed that they will be recreating the Thriller video so someone is doing it

    I'm wondering what Andrea would do for Halloween?
    Please, please I hope he does not get something like Phantom. Rhydian's version in 2007 was amazing and can never be matched (imo) :)

    It probably will be stevi done in a jokey way complete with jackos corpse linked to some strings so they can operate him like a puppet

    I'd go with Stevi, too. Although he has promised us a ballad on Halloween week - but that was more than a week ago so they're probably hoping we've forgotten.

    The only other person who could realistically do it is Fleur.

    I think Fleur or SK will be doing it. It won't matter that it's associated with a male singer. After all, they gave Paul "Ghost" which is associated with a female singer and Andrea gets diva ballads. I can't see Stevi being given something that iconic plus he's been harping on about doing a ballad for Halloween.

    Maybe OTY in a mash-up with Heads Will Roll glee-style?

    I would love to see Andrea take on Thriller. This could be just the kind of upbeat song he needs to prove he's not just about ballads. Plus, I think he has an MJ-esque tone to his voice. Yes, I know he did Earth Song but they're still 2 very different songs so I think it could work well.

    He should do Monster Mash.
    It was a graveyard smash.

    Ben isn't a ballad singer!! He is much more versatile than that?! Nor is Paul to be honest. Jay - I don't know what he is..

    I think Stevi will do Thriller or if not he could do what somebody else has suggested on another thread: The Time Warp complete with the cheesy dance routine

    I think OTY will get Monster Mash considering how well their version has gone down!

    Im going with Stevi or possibly Fleur!

    Have you ever watched the X Factor? The whole thing is a cliche.
