They're obviously the biggest potential cash cow, and with the possibility of a repeat RATM campaign(we saw what happened to Joe) is he purposely trying to get them out of the competition? maybe he's hoping for a repeat of the JLS success? OR maybe he wants their music out asap, instead of having to wait and have their hype die down. What do you think

The biggest potential cash cows in the show are (regardless of my opinion of them) Cher, Rebecca and Matt. Possibly Aiden.
I agree with you there.;)
Actually, it you who is doing that. Boybands will never have long-term success anywhere except in the UK. The Jonas Brothers were a Disney phenomenon. They were always going to have their 15 minutes. Wand aren't creating anywhere near as much hysteria as JB in their day. Even then, they only lasted for a few years... Like it or not, Cher is being received very positively in America. She receives regular coverage on American websites and is already growing in popularity. Rebecca has a smoky tone to her voice, reminiscent of Norah Jones and the Americans absolutely adore that. Not to mention, she, too, has been received well. Finally, Matt fits well into the current climate of male singers singing outside of the normal masculine vocal range, along with the likes of Bruno Mars, Jason Derulo and Iyaz. Furthermore, a lack of talent is the reason Wand will not find success. They have Liam. Bravo. Meanwhile, Zain, Niall and Louis need their mics turned off (Harry, I guess, is adequate enough).

Perez Hilton LOVES her. Ciara, Keri and Soulja Boy all tweeted her audition and liked it

Regular updates on all of her performances...
Cher is the only current X Factor contestant who interests my American friends and co-workers here in NYC, based on her YT videos. When I invited people over for Sunday brunch a couple of weeks ago to watch a download of the previous night's episode they all liked Cher, Rebecca, and Aiden.
Matt reminded everyone of the buskers in the subway.
Perez is vile, nobody takes him seriously. She's hated by Americans in all the forums/blogs I visit.
Ok then :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
Don't roll your eyes at me, not my fault Americans can't be bothered with her:p
You must have some bizarre people for brunch then... Rebecca yes, she is very jazzy/bluesy but Aiden, I am not sure most Americans would even get the theme last week of him doing Jackson..
Oh dear and your mates think Matt looks like a subway busker, hell so was James Morrison and look where he is today... so dont knock buskers.
GG
think we may have locked horns before...
To be honest I cannot believe the Yanks are loving Cher, she is a poor mans rapper if you ask me, compared to some of theirs she is by now way even in their league.
In your experience. I have relatives on the East and West coasts and all are very impressed. Cher isn't really very liked on online forums anyway, I think DS shows that. Rest assured, she is popular on websites.
Furthermore, some of my :rolleyes:s were at your dismissal of Perez Hilton. Like it or not, his influence in America is huge...
Huge to whom his MOMMY...
I agree with this, I know people in New York and LA and they've said the same thing. Aiden's comments can vary widly, much far less complimentary, and more like an odd commodity:D but he is talked about.
So you are saying the Yanks are thinking him ODD do I get that much right? which would stand in sted with the comments from some of the people I talk to in America, both North and South by the way not just east and west.
Sorry don't understand your post.
What has he done to make you think he is trying to get them out of the competition?
^^^^^^^^Well said.
Yeah; he's not my favourite though, I don't really get him at all...
lol Perez Hilton has zero influence where did you get such a silly idea. He's upset some hugely influential people in Hollywood and don't forget Cheryl's man will.i.am punched him in the face. I'm shocked he still has visitors to his site.
Oh has he still got a site must go and have a laugh then.. Americans love Cher my backside most of their rappers would rap her under the table, she is good but not that GOOD and even I will admit how many rappers we have over here is few.. but I do remember one rap group, god I had to live with them for years.. via my silly daughter, I had to turn off the radio if Take That came on as she was an E17 fan.. and I will say Brian could rap... bless him.. and do alot of other things not to be mentioned or be proud of ..
I thought this thread was about One Direction by the way.. how did it turn into a CHER thread...
The only thing wrong with 1 Direction is hair: Liam's bouffant beehive Justin Bieber monstrousity, and Harry's curly-girly moptop.
The'd be better off coming second and getting a decent single out by March.
Although I have mixed feelings in Cher, I think people like her attitude and potential more than anything, they want to work with her out of interest. In some ways they respect her for plugging on through the negativity.
I agree though that people don't realise how hard it is to break into rap, you REALLY have to earn your position, everyone thinks they can rap for some reason, which couldn't be further from the truth. There are some real tough cookies she would have to get through to be truly accepted in that field.
