Everyone knows there is no Leona or Alex this year, but there are several 'good singers' e.g. Danyl, Olly, Jamie, Stacey, Lucie, Rachel & Joe.

Lloyd is bland (sorry Lloyd). I personally love John & Edward, they are a breath of fresh air in an otherwise dull show. Of the 'real singers' I love Olly. I would like him to win with the twins 2nd. Olly & J&E are the 2 acts I most look forward to each week.

If J & E ARE voted out (& I hope they're not), well then which contestant will become the scapegoat for people (Simon) to vent their fury at, if Danyl is in the bottom 2?

For the record, I think Danyl is an amazing singer & he seems like a decent guy, but Simon is being so smug & arrogant about him that it's putting people off. His talent should speak for itself, Simon bigging up is not doing him any favours.

I'm gonna put a tenner on J & E to win. It can't do any harm, if I lose it's only a tenner, if I win - happy days!

i don't get why the twins are getting the blame . vocally, they're no worse than lloyd, but no one is blaming him

actually, i don't see why any of the acts should be getting the blame for danyl being in the bottom 2. danyl didn't get enough votes to be safe. simple as really. there was nothing wrong with his performance, but having simon repeatedly shove him in our faces is beginning to get on people's nerves. by j&e getting through safely and danyl being in trouble, simon should finally learn that he can't keep treating the public like idiots. he can't tell people who they can and can't vote for. he allowed j&e through to live shows (there's no way he didn't have a say in it) and now he's allowing people to boo them. it's just not on

anyways, back to your original question: if j&e go and danyl is in the bottom 2... it's simon's fault. like it was yesterday

Louis, Cheryl and Danii, in that order

Cheryl took the easy option last night in sending it to deadlock.

If J & E go, and I want to vote for someone else on future shows, I'm afraid it won't be Danyl it will be one of the others.

I didn't see anyone blaming the twins like it was their fault when other people have been in the bottom two either. I didn't see Louis blaming them as Miss Frank were there as well. I think Cheryl was more puzzled by the voting than anything else when Rikki left, but I don't think she blamed them at all. It feels like Simon is acting like a spoilt brat. And one thing I never do, is to let a spoilt brat have his/her own way as otherwise they'll never learn.

I can see Simon picking on every other act to blame if Danyl is bottom two again, and if the twins leave, except for Jamie and Olly.

There'll be some people still blaming John and Edward. After all, they're being blamed at the moment when it obviously isn't their fault; so what's going to stop people blaming them when they've left the show?

I think it's been missed that they are actually responsible for the recession and global warming.

Darn kids!

That is what so infuriated me last night when the morons were booing John & Edward for "causing" Danyl to be in the bottom 2.If the twins weren't even competing this year,he probably would have been in the bottom 2 anyway.Still there's nothing like having a scapegoat.

i'm a danyl fan, but i don't for one minute blame john and edward for it

It's quite daft ; any act that finishes in the bottom 2 can hardly claim "it's so and so's fault I finished in the bottom 2" (ie. one of the other finalists).But that's exactly what the auidence were doing last night by booing J & E.

I hate the bullying attitude of some people towards J & E.

These people seem to forget that even if J & E had been in the bottom 2 with Miss Frank last night, then Danyl would still have been in the bottom 3, & Mr Cowell would still not be happy about that.

By keeping J & E in, it just means that others are denied 1 more week in the show, not a recording contract. Rikki was never gonna win & I can't see him selling records, and that has nothing to do with J & E.

That's what makes me so angry . J & E are 18 year old kids having fun, no sob story, just having the time of their lives & entertaining the nation. But their sad little faces last night was upsetting, the boos are getting to them

were they? i didn't pick up on that, i assumed they were booing for the sake of booing... the whole pantomine villain thing.

you're probably right though, and i just missed the point. the acts can't be responsible for audience reaction though, it's not like danyl said he blames john and edward.

Well as it's a "vote to save" there will only ever be one person to blame.

Anyone else's fans can't vote Danyl out even if they wanted to.

It happened on The Xtra Factor last night misslibertine.Holly mentioned something about the twins staying in and was met by a cacophony of boos from what seemed like hundreds of people.Louis was so angry he shouted at them "Who the bloody hell do you think you are?".

I'm certain Danyl is not blaming the twins for what happened ; he said he voted for them five times last week

I wouldn't blame anyone if he was. It would be a matter of thanking

lol

i know, i watched it myself.

but the majority of the audience have booed the twins every week whenever they're mentioned, i thought it was just same old same old rather than them blaming the twins for danyl's low votes.

i know it's not their fault, so i assumed the studio audience would too.

Sorry I just don't get it - if Danyl is in the bottom two at this stage of the competition he hasn't got a prayer of winning so what on earth has that got to do with the twins? The fact is that, apart from Miss Frank, all the other acts got more votes than he did on Saturday so why blame J&E in particular? If they decided to drop out of the competition tomorrow it wouldn't save him - fact it is doesn't matter how talented you are if people simply don't like you ....

I completely agree with you, but while J & E are still there, certain people will point the finger & think how can they still be there & Danyl be in the bottom 2.

I am in agreement with you - these people are missing the point, Danyl didn't get enough votes, simple as that. People prefer the twins.
