Well, the press said he'd had a massive row with Simon, and then on the Saturday on TV we saw a clip of the pair of them, with Simon saying "We have to change your song, sorry about this" and Jamie replying "Oh no, don't be sorry".
This is what may happen to Jamie..... Not enough practice = disastrous performance. |

hmm...if we are not Danyl bashing we are Jamie bashing. I love Jamies voice, and i love the freindship between the two. Ive already said if Danyl goes i will support Jamie. I love them both

I'm an X Factor fan and I've never bought a single record by any of the contestants. None of them ever grabbed me before because they weren't my style of music. Here's a contestant with something I do like, so I wou buy his record.
FYI, I don't even want him to win. As if I'd want Simon controlling his every move. I just want him there for exposure so he can be spotted by someone who does have an eye for talent and not a replica of an existing artist. These people want to buy his work now. On xfactor they are asking please we want this song on CD.

I honour your opinion however it is not mine and I have always been a rock fan.
![]() Become more versatile is that you Louis. ![]() I'd love to know what this poster deems credible. Bet I'd hate most of it. It's all crap anyways, music is so manufactured these days whatever the genre. Unless you listen to some really underground undiscovered artists... which is what Jamie was before X Factor... o no... full circle

The Mirror headlines about the twins are no doubt cooked up by Cowell to get people voting for them against him.

The fact that he is on the X factor and not singing and writing his own songs, that apparently were not deemed good enough to be picked up for a record company before, just means he gave up. Being on the X factor is the end of his career as a rocker. So i see no point for him to keep up the act, it will lead no where.

However I do not shove my opinioins down anyone elses throat as I don't feel that is correct. ![]() I happen to like the way he performs and that is all there is to it.

I Getting pretty riled, as if this news wasn't bad enough having to go over and over the same rubbish with the Anti-Jamie brigade (which seems to consist of about 5 posters) is doing my nut.
I hope you are not talking about me, as you can see from my other posts if you do not believe me, there are people much less talented than Jamie and that i think should get out ASAP. But Please, it's clear he sees himself as a rocker when he's not one. There is no future for him as Rocker. Credibility is fundamental. Without credibility the rocker is nothing. |

Was it the end for Chris Doughty???? No he was a rocker who went on American Idol. He didnt win but was signed up by another label and has been hugely successful.

The way I see it is this: Jamie and Danyl are smart enough and old enough to realise that they are not pulling the strings. X-factor is a calculated risk which will bring them publicity and open up new opportunities even if they don't win.
I personally think these guys are amazing in their own way. they are natural performers and make what they do so easy. they give a lot to the audience which i love. |

Another is that he hadn't been spotted and so never had a chance. Simon asked him at his audition why he was there and Jamie said he had no idea how to break into the music business. He hasn't given up, he's getting exposure!! Any publicity is good publicity! You can get famous doing anything these days, and then the world's your oyster if you play your cards right. Also, Charlie Simpson went from Busted to Fightstar. I liked Busted as a bit of a joke, but my friends all laughed at me. Some of the ones who listened to crap from Kerrang! now like Fightstar. People don't care, music speaks for itself. Not everybody is so judgemental. Perhaps you shouldn't tar everyone with your brush. |

....but Chris Daughtrey was better, imo, and he shined on AI...but having a mentor just seems to ruin acts which is what is wrong with X Factor. I feel Jamie is frustrated.

Apparently Cowell wants Olly to win now but also ,mentions Joe as a potential winner. Article will be in Star and express.

People don't care, music speaks for itself. Not everybody is so judgemental. Perhaps you shouldn't tar everyone with your brush. ive actually seen Fightstar live a couple of times at Download festival and they were pretty good.Look, i love all rock music whether its heavy, soft or punk. I go to gigs all the time (2/3 a month) and i love Jamies voice and think there is a place for him out there. ALL the overs will have good careers whether it as at the top level or just earning a good wage doing something they love. The winners in X Factor are often NOT the winners if you see what i mean |

The set up on AI is more suited to someone like Jamie. The contestants not only choose the songs they sing, but they choose the arrangement and can play their own instruments. But unfortunately there isnt a show like this here.
