yeah I saw that aswell.

"What??? Nooooooooooo. Arghhhh Mummmmyyy tell simon to put me on. Daddy i want a golden ticket!!!"

Well yeah it was obviously played up. She was nervous all through her song, but she decided to do the crying thing. That's not natural how she cried - it started out of nowhere, her face didn't display the emotion and it would suddenly stop dead.

Not planned but she's obviously a bit of a Squeem and Squeem Until I'm Sick kind of child.

I thought it was uncomfortable viewing too.

The temper tantrum might have looked fake, but before that she was obviously very distressed.

i hope they crucify that girl.

PRECOCIOUS RAT TRIES TO FOOL BRITISH PUBLIC

Turned over to HIGNFY. Couldn't be asked to sit through that 'performance' again

I'm a BP - dont think pushy parents should encourage their pushy kids to go through this sort of thing,

Do you mean for giving her a second chance ?

If he hadn't given her another chance he would have been criucified anyway. So if it was the press he was worried about he wouldn't get out of critiscism anyway.

LOL! harsh words mikey!

No in respect of letting younge children enter in the first place, or more for the fact the papers have been waiting for a live meltdown on one of his shows and now they've got it. This is not good telly and i bet offcom or whatevers phones are already in meltdown.

I would've pissed myself if Simon buzzed her after the first line

thats what they like though these papers

controversy

and so do i

ugh I feel sick

shes just trying to get into dec's pants. look at her

hussie

I was willing him too.

Bravest girl in the world

she just performed again; with a smug look.

Bravest girl in the world my arse

Guess who will be on the front of the papers tomorrow... at least it gives Susan Boyle a break

Blooming good for her. That was incredible and it took real guts to get back on that stage.

I really can't get over the nasty cynical comments on here. She's freaking EIGHT YEARS OLD and you're all calling her names - get over yourself and take a long hard look in the mirror. You are adults calling a CHILD names.

If she was that professional Amanda she wouldn't have fluffed the first time.

She's 10.

shes FREAKING 10 YEARS OLD

You all happy now there was very clearly tears?

It was all staged.

Hands up - got her age wrong.

Oh right - and you know this... how?
