She was defo set up by being put on first, she should never have been first on, that was a disaster for a start.

They shouldn't have put anyone on while the programs were overlapping.

Simon stitched her and Dannii up good style.
[List][*]Admin Edit: This thread is a continuation of The Stacey Solomon Appreciation Thread[/List]

I wonder what the 'official' criteria is for the order in which the acts go on...really it should be rotational I suppose...or even draw straws...it does bug me to think that Simon is in charge of who goes on when and it's solely his decision.

She was definitely at a disadvantage by being on first, there's no doubt about that

welcome to part 2

...and the point of it was... ?!

Yeesh, I haven't been here in awhile (or anywhere on the net infact).

I was quite annoyed that Stacey ended up third when I thought she was the best performer on Saturday.
She had the best duet with Michael Buble, while the others were disappointing.
Joe was good as usual but didn't really shine as much as he can, while Olly was as tedious as usual.

Long may it continue! I hope there's a part 200

Anyone kno when the simon stacey moment was on xtra factor? sat or sun? and the stacey olly champagne moment?

sunday as it was after the results

what happened

[quote=tvqueen1905;37293327]sunday as it was after the results

Thanks

Well, I still say Stacey was stitched up

Stacey was never in any fear of being voted out by the public until in week 7 when Olly should have been kicked out but he wasn't.

That was the turning point.

Stacey had come 1st place in week 6, but because Jedward was kicked out instead of Olly in week 7 that meant Stacey would never get to the Final.

The whole course of History was changed because of an error by the judges.

They had been leaving in to the Public vote but didn't because they didn't want to lose Olly and couldn't believe he had the lowest vote score, so they kicked Jedward out and that was a big kick in the teeth for Stacey which meant she didn't get to sing the winners song and meant she wasn't in the Final with Joe, plus she may have won the whole thing if it wasn't for Simon making sure she didn't.

He only wanted Olly in because it was his act and he didn't want to be without an act.

This is only my opinion but the figures speak for themselves don't they.

Never mind Stacey, hope you have the last laugh on them soon.

X Factor: Olly Murs consoled by mum as results show he never came top in public vote... and was even beaten by Jedward

He now knows he wasn't popular all the way through and Stacey was.
He can see that because the Judges saved him he took the crown off Stacey.

Well him and the judges have to live with that disaster.

Guys, I just want to say that I agree that the final was not a level playing field and Stacey had many disadvantages but what's done is done and nothing can change what happened.

The facts are:

1. Stacey managed to come 3rd in the most-watched series of The X Factor ever
2. She topped the vote in weeks 2 and 6, came 2nd in weeks 1, 7 and 8, and overall was easily the 2nd most consistently popular contestant (after Joe)
3. Her audition alone has 8m views on YouTube and her performances continue to clock up more and more views every day from all over the world - her Buble duet is the highest-rated of all the performances across the weekend

All of the above should stand her in good stead for a very bright future - this is what people should be focusing on.

The rules state that the judges are to choose who to save based on the sing-off. Nobody in their right minds would say that John & Edward (with their sing-off performance No Matter What) should have been saved over Olly. It was right that he should have stayed that week. I like Olly - well done to him on coming 2nd. I'm annoyed and disappointed that she didn't make the top 2 but there's no reason why Joe, Olly AND Stacey shouldn't all have successful careers!

You are quite wise. Yes, that is what I want for Stacey. I am very proud of Olly and Joe. They are living their dreams.

Stacey is so gracious and happy. My nick name for her is 'happy go lucky'-hence the film.

I Keep watching the Buble/Stacey performance-brilliant and her other finals. Boy she will do well. Beautiful spirit. Lovely girl.

Regards

Babeth

According to The Sun, Simon is going to sign Olly - congratulations and good luck to him. I hope he does well.

But news about Stacey has been frustratingly thin on the ground since Saturday. Is it always like this with the runners-up after the final? It is right that the winner should be getting the bulk of the attention but I've seen NOTHING of Stacey - would be nice just to have the odd story to let us know what she's up to! However, I did see this one positive bit on the article in The Telegraph (last paragraph):

"Fans of Stacey Solomon, the 20-year-old single mother from Dagenham, need not fear they have seen the last of her. Although she was voted out on Saturday night, she has already been approached with offers of music deals."

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/t...umber-one.html

Hopefully that's true and the offers are excellent ones!

Accidental double post.

I hope that's true, I really want Stacey to get signed and bring out an Album. I thought Simon would sign her. Yeah good luck to Olly. I knew Simon would sign him.

oo thats good to hear that she has been approached... but i agree that its frustrating we haven't had any Stacey interviews...

http://www.anorak.co.uk/233816/celeb...ry-to-win.html

Of course it was rigged so that Stacey couldn't win.

Pretty obvious really, you've only got to look at the voting.

They didn't want a girl to win this year, so they made sure she couldn't and the only way was to get her out.

It had all ready been said by the vocal coaches that Stacey's version of the Climb single was the best of the 3.

So it's obvious they had to get her out, they didn't want her competing with Leona and Alex did they.

The comments are true - the odds were not stacked in her favour. But honestly, we can't do anything about that now and we are just coming across as bitter. Let's focus on the positives that lie ahead rather than the negatives which cannot now be changed. Please! I'm sure that's what Stacey is doing.

i agree....

roll on next year- the tour, single, album and a bright future and hopefully a performance on nexy years Xfactor...

i really do hope she gets onto twitter- which i doubt she will know how to use so she can keep us updated with any progress

It's going to take a bit for the injustice to wear off.

I like to see justice and I didn't, Simon did a remarkable turn around with his acts, pity he didn't give Stacey the same chance.

He always says he has to make life changing decisions, well he sure does, but they are biased in favour of what he wants not in favour of what is right.

Stacey has been left right in the cold, just as if she didn't exist, and that can't be right, nothing against Olly, but he wasn't even in the race until Simon starting pulling strings and suddenly he appears from nowhere, another bit of Simon's Magic.

thats one thing i deffo agree on, i would have preferred Sat night to be done more fairly, it was obvious 10- 15mins into the show Stacey way on her way out...

Simon did say all the duets were great on xtra factor, but then went on to say the moment GM came on there was a buzz- so regardles of how Stacey performed the fact is Buble didn't create the same atmosphere / excitement as GM and Robbie... this once again reflected in the votes

anyway...

here's a video of Dannii and Stacey talking after Stacey's elimination

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJJGkJ_D-IU

I was annoyed that Stacey didn't make the final 2, especially since I thought she really stepped her game up more than the other 2 at the final.

But since I've read that Stacey almost couldn't wait for the competition to be over so she could see her son again, along with her seeming look of relief at being eliminated on Saturday, I was slightly glad she didn't win.
Though I still thought she should have made it past Olly. If dancing is meant to be his strong point then I really feel sorry for him.

Hope everyone's voted for Stacey on this poll:

She's currently a comfortable third behind Jedward and Joe - not bad!
