    Remembrance ?

    I'm doing my best to forget her tbh .

    Overrated and a first-class b1tch !

    Have you ever actually met her or are you just assuming this? Because I've read numerous reports both on DS and from a friend of mine who has met her who say that she is far from the way you paint her. And is it really important what you think of someone on a personal level on such an occasion as Remembrance Sunday? :confused:

    I've paid my respects personally as I do each year , I lost close relatives so it's a bad day all round in our house.

    As to the woman in question , I disliked her all through the series and my impression of her wasn't helped when she did spots of guest judging on the last series . She's simply arrogant and obnoxious . Not surprised she wasn't invited to be a judge.

    Its a really great performance, not Alex's best vocal imo but still great.

    She can be loud, but where's the arrogance? That's the meaning:

    'making claims or pretensions to superior importance or rights; overbearingly assuming; insolently proud: an arrogant public official.'

    I've not seen that tbh. She couldn't be a judge that year, she was busy. Your timetable has to be free.

    The negative feedback from viewers meant she was never going to be a permanent judge , as I understand .

    The negative feedback being from the same people who just love to hate her for some reason. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Alexandra, but lets be honest, the majority of the UK are skets anyway so, they'll be having a lovely time insulting a young woman who has done nothing wrong. There is no place for a confident black woman in the UK, that has been made very clear.

    Was there much of an uproar about it apart from on here where it seems to be a crime to do anything unless you're an inoffensive mid-tempo singer.
