John and Edward vs Lucie vs Olly

I think these bottom 2 performances show the show's fixed.

john and edward killed it with rock dj against lucie. you could argue they were more entertaining than her, they had the x factor, so they should've stayed...

but against Simon's precious Olly?? they looked defeated walking out, they sang a ballad, they were shite, they didn't stand a chance. Olly could have snored his way through jingle bells and he'd have been better.

so why didn't john and edward do oops i did it again or she bangs or under pressure, something that would've at least given them a fighting chance? (cause let's face it, olly's sing off was quite rubbish)

i wonder who got the least amount of votes-if it was olly then it was proof simon knew, wouldn't let them go to deadlock, so made them change song (the twins admitted they changed their song in the last hour)

I think whatever they sung, they'd have been going home. Olly's one of those contestants who is just generally awful at singing and dancing, but because he was bookies fave, the judges are oblivious to that . .

& Jedward were constantly being moaned at 'to sing a ballad', so I guess they figured that this was their last time on the XFactor, might as well give them what they want.

EXACTLY what I thought. They threw it away on Sunday.

John and Edward shouldn't have sung a ballad in the sing off, it was the wrong song choice. But, they never had a chance anyway, all the judges like Olly. When Dannii asked if it was a singing competition even Louis was nodding at her as if to say "Save Olly."

The show isn't a fix, it's an entertainment show. It was in the best interest's of the show to save John and Edward that week. I'm sure Jamelia isn't the only person who doesn't want to watch The X Factor anymore.

I've been wondering for days now, what was the original song that they were going to sing? We don't know if it would have been one of the ones that they had previously sang on the show, it may have been that Back Street Boys song, in which case, it wouldn't have been half bad.

It wouldn't have made a difference. The judges would never have got rid of Olly.
