Could Dannii be our voice against Cher?

I'm rewatching Jedwards performances from last year to get in the X Factor spirit, and she says this is a singing competition not a rapping competition, so what will she think about Cher?

Will she be the one to force Cheryl's hand into making her do a straight forward song and see if she can actually sing?

I don't even mind Cher, I just don't want her to be getting all-out praise for being different when all she's doing is a more polished (and therefore less fun) version of Jedward.

It depends how often she's rapping, and how good she is. Last year the judges were very positive about Graziella's (Miss Frank) rapping.

We'll have to wait until Satuday evening to see if that is proved correct or not

I never understood why she didn't get through on her own. She was a good singer and she was pretty good at rapping. So Cher isn't new to X Factor at all.

They've got you hook, line & sinker. How can you believe the words that come out of these people?

Her first audition song was sung pretty conventionally, I thought, and was pretty self evident that she can hold a note and sing well without needing to mix it up to the extent she did with Viva La Vida.

I'm sure it was in the Sun, but Simon apparantly said, 'it's not just a singing competition'. At the time I took it as a dig at Dannii, but I don't know. This was sometime before the show started airing.
