Did you ever hate a contestant after they knocked out a contestant you liked?

    I didn't "hate" them, but I disliked Union J before the sing-off with Jade, but afterwards they were my least favourite for the rest of the competition. My favourites have a record of finishing 4th or 2nd, so not much annoyance here. Lloyd Daniels v anyone was irritating as was Maria v Conway Sisters, but not many apart from that.

    I was raging when Misha B put out Sophie Habibis. Really could not stand Misha, her voice irritates me :P

    Yeah but at least you can say Misha was unique and original like Diana Vickers/Danyl Johnson/Cher Lloyd (the typical 4th placers). That's the reason the judges chose to save her every time.

    Oh yeah and Eoghan was useless! He was good in the first few weeks but like Janet he became incredibly repetitive and there was no actual improvement in his performances. Don't know how he got past Ruth and Diana (both of whom deserved to be in the finals).

    Also Matt Cardle winning when he sang Unfaithful horribly out of tune along with Rihanna's horrible out of pitch moaning...horrible performance that was and Matt still won??? Matt's beautiful and all but Rebecca should have won.

    I don't "hate" any of them. I was annoyed at Marcus Canty in the US X Factor though after both Drew (one of my favorite X Factor contestants ever) and Rachel Crow went home over him. They were both far superior in talent as well imo.

    I also got a little irritated when watching this season of the US X Factor again because I thought Emblem 3 were going to make the final instead of Fifth Harmony. I guess I jumped to conclusions a little that time :o I just didn't want a reasonably talented boy band with a pretty cocky attitude in the final over an amazing group of vocalists like FH.

    I can't recall ever being annoyed at a contestant on the UK X Factor. I was a little miffed that Chris made it to the final over Union J (partly because Union J making it would have meant they would have needed to hire some non-judge duet partners) but I wasn't seriously annoyed about it.

    The elimination of Miss Rachel Crow gave us the shining moment of Season 1. It's fine.

    Not particularly when someone was knocked out but when Louis called Ella the best female since Leona...

    Hello? Alexandra? Rebecca? Ruth? Diana? Even Cher is better

    He reaction was so OTT that it was a bit embarassing. Then Nicole's waterworks... what a mess.

    I did laugh though. :o

    I have. I still have a burning hatred toward Katie Weasel after she trounced Aiden. On X Factor USA, there was a group called Sister C (who I like to call Sister ****) and they got in over a far more talented group named Playback. Also, I briefly hated Rachel Hylton when she trounced Austin Drage back in Series 5. Anyone ever felt that kind of hatred towards another contesant? Feel free to discuss

    Wait Playback? The manufactured boyband who looked like they were have an epileptic fit? I thought they were awful

    After Union J beat Jade, I started bitching "WHAT?!?!?", but I went back to quite liking them again afterwards, it was mainly my reaction to my last favourite going, and she was bottom to be fair.

    I think still hating a contestant for surviving over a contestant you liked is very unfair. Perhaps Aiden's fans should have voted a bit more? It's their fault, not Katie's. :)

    This.

    Also was annoyed at Katie staying over Treyc, Cher stayng over Paije, Rylan staying over Carolynne/Kye and Lloyd staying over Rachel Adedeji

    I don't "hate" anyone but the following annoyed me
    MISHA B over Kitty & Janet (She got farther than she deserved EVEN IF Janet did forget her words the week she left...... Lol had Janet sung Chasing Cars instead of MmmBop she would have probably had a slight chance of staying)

    Jedward over Lucie (That was pathetic & Jedward are a freaking joke lol)

    Lloyd over Rachel A (uggggh don't get me started)

    Who's laughing now? Jedward are, of course. It's no joke they survive and continue to make music. Three albums and counting. What is pathetic is people refuse to recognise they were 17/18 during X Factor 2009 and have improved their performance amazingly well. Some people are stuck in the past, bless. There is only one act which can win every season, the rest have to hope they have enough to sell to keep up appearances in showbusiness.

    I hope Lucie is doing well too. :)

    wow.. so much hate for Union J here. I can kinda understand those saying Jade (even though I don't agree), but wow.. Rylan deserved to stay over Union J? I'm sorry, but no. I adore Rylan, but he should have left much earlier. Union J deserved to stay more, just because they actually did pretty well that week, and never should have been in the bottom in the first place. Maybe Rylan did sing better in the sing off, but Union J had much better performances that week and shouldn't have been in the bottom (Chris should have).

    I never got the hype for Jade. She has a good voice, yes.. but she's not all that. The fact is that she had two bad performances in a row and deserved to be in the bottom (ok.. maybe Chris deserved it more, but still). I agree that she sang better in the sing off than Union J, who quite honestly sounded like crap. But the fact is that Union J never should have been in the bottom that week. Their performance was good, and got a lot of praise from the judges. I understand why the judges picked Union J over Jade to stay.

    As for the question.. personally I'll mention two people: Rylan over Carolynne during the first week and just in general Christopher beating everyone all the way to the final. So many better and more talented acts left because he was still there.

    Nah, I usually save my "hate" for the voters and whispering producers instead.

    Sing offs that made me seethe the most:

    Chico vs The Conway Sisters- The show turned them into hate figures for ratings and Simon had to go and stick the boot in even further

    Lucie vs Jedward- Because Cowell had spent the entire series slating Jedward and now turns around and saves them because they weren't scripted to go yet. Really highlighted what a farce the show was becoming.

    Lloyd vs Rachel/Jame- Why did they want to keep him around?

    Cher vs Mary- For the total farce the whole situation was. A real 2 fingers up at the audience who they clearly assume are as thick as s...

    Misha vs Kitty-Because I loved Kitty

    Misha vs Janet- Because Janet was given such a hard time and uphill struggle by the producers once they discovered she wasn't the midnless puppet they assumed she was. Their tactics had finally worked and you could sense the sheer smug joy eminating from the judges desk- primarily from the producer that lies on the floor. Plus, we were meant to believe Rowland couldn't decide between Janet and Misha- lol no.

    Every single sing off in this year- Actually switched off after Jade went. Delighted I did. Awful series.

    They were a million times better than the totally untalented Sister **** and Cowell made a big mistake by not picking them

    Every single sing off last series had the wrong result, especially Jade leaving against Union J.

    Actually all bar one, Kye leaving over Rylan was correct

    Just came back from watching Jedward star in Dublin panto, Jedward and the Magic Lamp, where the show is basically written around them and they sing about 6 songs from their 3rd album. Met people who had flown to Dublin from UK, Germany, Sweden, Australia, Austria, Switzerland, USA, Canada and Singapore, probably people from loads of other places too, all there just to watch the Jedward show.

    It seems Jedward are one of those lucrative and successful "jokes" that they are well and truly in on.

    Meanwhile the 2nd series of Jedward's Dream Factory was on RTÉ all over Christmas period. The 2nd series of their BBC show Jedward's Big Adventure starts next week.
