Which judge has the strongest category this year? I'll bump this after next weekend's Judges Houses shows too, once each of them have chosen their final three!

I dont think any of them are strong, but the girls will do fine as it is an easy category and maybe the boys too

I don't think any of the categories are that strong...although I'd probably say Cheryl..just.

On paper you would say Cheryl.
In reality, I think its Dannii. |

In reality, I think its Dannii. Whereas in the boys there are at least 5-6 very strong acts, mainly Matt Cardle, Aiden Grimshaw, John Wilding, Nicolo Festa and Paije Richardson. |

Cheryl. Louis has the weakest category and might have had a fighting chance had they not changed the ages of the overs....

Cheryl has the strongest contested category, but Danii will win with Matt.

I think Dannii. Like someone else said, Cheryl's category looks strong on paper and yes all 3 girls will probably do ok but I don't think she has the winner. I think the 3 rumoured boys in which Dannii has chosen all have strong voices and I could imagine them singing anything. Whereas I don't think the girls are as strong. Cher is only the favourite because she has been shoved in our faces every week on The X Factor and every day in the newspapers whereas the boys haven't had as much publicity.

Considering the hype over Gamu, Katie and Cher in particular, Cheryl clearly has the strongest category. Her girls have had the most airtime so far and are best known to the public and so each girl (especially Cher who has a very large FB following) has a fanbase already, ready to vote in the lives. Treyc also has the "story" of being on the show before and will already have loads of people ready to vote for her.
However, Dannii's boys are also very strong. Some great voices in there and think it will be difficult for her to choose just 3. I think that the boys have more of a mass appeal than to select audiences. It's just a shame that they had to change the over 25s category - it may well have made the boys and girls categories stronger by adding Marlon, Matt, Treyc etc, but subsequently it's made the Overs category weaker, which I don't think was necessary. It just means we'll get a few crap Overs instead of 2 good ones and more good girls and boys. |

Cheryl has the strongest definitely no question about it.. but I'd rather someone else win it this year.. I reckon given the girls any of the judges could stroll thru to the finals

It makes me wonder why The X-Factor bothers to have an over 25 category because they clearly don't want anybody over about 22 to win it!!
They should just admit it & do what POP IDOL did & have an upper age limit of 26. Subjecting all these performers over that age to false hope, only for their dreams to be dashed is a little cruel IMHO, |

Cheryl's girls are the most interesting and they've provoked the biggest reactions from their auditions as well. But interesting isn't a winning attribute on this show. So I'll say the boys. Only 3 have gone out in the first 3 weeks since the show began and you'll always have at least one in the final even if it's only based on their looks *coughs* Eoghan.
What we can say for sure is that the girls have by far the strongest categories. Louis seems to have a rubbish category for the 4th year in a row and Simon for the third out of 4 (last year he had a strong overs category). However, Storm will get an anti-Simon vote and Mary could be popular as well. The groups are pretty much always the hardest. |

If Dannii chooses her acts wisely, which I'm sure she will, she has the strongest category. Hands down, no question about it for me.

You know this pisses me off. Those two always get the easy groups. Its such a skewed field their winning is beginning to become obselete.
Cheryl has had girls (Laura, Diana, Alex), boys (Joe, Rikki, Lloyd but arguably had stronger ones to choose from at JH), girls (strongest category again). |

Actually, the more I think about it, it's quite even. Cheryl doesn't seem to me to have anyone in her category who can give a 'WOW!' performance. Plus, Katie and Rebecca will split votes IMO. And Cher's a bit of a marmite performer.
Likewise, I think Aiden and Matt will split votes. Dannii could do wonders with Nicolo, but he's also got the marmite factor. Louis's only hope is Mary, but Simon's newly formed boyband are probably going to do very well. I actually think it's very open... |

I would say Louis. Its a marathon not a sprint. I can not see Cher being able to rap everyweek to big band and abba lol. I have not heard her sing very well yet. Gamu is well over rated and will annoy people with the crying. At the moment Matt seems the stand out performmer for the boys. Over all though i can see Louis doing well with Mary, John and Storm.
Bold prediction Storm Lee to win. There is something about him and i think he will grow on people. |
