    She's great. You can see where she's succeeded and others have failed.

    Well, I always thought she was good. But you're right, she has improved a lot. But what the hell is up with that presenter-robot that looks a lot like Khloe Kardashian?!! (ps: I know it's Khloe Kardashian herself, but seriously; she sounds like a robot while talking).

    Oh I hate her squeaky voice, there is no depth to it, she looks the part but the voice is weak.

    Her voice hasn't improved or deteriorated which is good but she's a great performer. What I find it funny is that after she found some success in the US people are suddenly jumping on the bandwagon. :)

    Standing ovations don't necessarily reflect the truth over anything as they are persistently given to any live guest performances. Apart from Cher's voice being americanized by the loathsome bubblegum pop genre; there has been no disparities whatsoever from those harshly weak vocal chords of hers prior to that so-called 'amazing' performance (inclusion of the partial auto-tuning and the miming).

    Modern Americans sure do have a bizarre taste for music, but I'm glad that they love any manufactured pop trash produced by Syco and that was very ingenious from Simon to ship her and One Direction over there - permanently I can only hope.

    This just goes to show no matter who you are, no matter how little ability you have, no matter how little class you have, you can make sounds, record them and people will buy.

    I saw Cher on the X Factor tour and that girl always had stage presence but now she looks so much more polished and wow can she move.

    Well done . Simon must be so proud

    I'mma call you tuna melt cause honey you pressed. Let me sip those salty, salty tears. Slurp slurp. Delicious.

    Cher will continue to make dolla' and detractors will continued be paid dust. That's the earl grey, children.

    She was miming to a pre-recorded vocal, so not that impressive.

    She's been massively Americanised. Can understand why she may have success there, personally I don't like her at all, but it's the sort of thing that goes down well over the pond.

    A lot of miming and backing track stuff apart from the occasional apparently sung live line. Not massively impressed. The group song by the finalists was great.

    Was never a big fan of hers (Apart from her performance of Stay which to me remains one of my favourite ever performances) but I really liked her on the USA X Factor this week.

    I think her last two songs have been quite good (compared to Swagger Jagger) kind of Disneyfied pop rap. She's doing quite well I think her team have got her image spot on for the market in the US now - they are obviously aiming her at kids rather than adults.

    I thought the performance was OK but it fell apart when she did that long note in the middle. Also, I loved the way they glossed over the failure of her album over there with no mention of it in the intro! It set the US charts alight with sales of 64,000. :eek:

    Hardly a failure. Carly Rae Jepsen - one of the biggest pop stars this year - had an album debut at 6.

    Cher debuted at 8.

    Cher has had 1 hit song, that went platinum. Carly had 2 hit songs, one of which is the biggest selling song this year. If chers album can hold its own up there with her. It really isn't a failure.
