Of course she doesn't the judges think we all live under a rock. Actually I take exception to the silent inference the X Factor viewers are too thick to know the difference.

I think a lot of people get annoyed at this, myself included.

The style is well over a decade old, she's a poor copy of artists such as Lauryn Hill, Missy Eliliott, Lil Kim...who themselves weren't original either.

Artists such as MC Lyte were doing this kind of thing 20+ years ago and a LOT better than "cher"....yep, it's so original

You're just jealous of her because she's putting a twist on it. Did I mention that she's putting a twist on it?

How could anyone ever believe a word SC/CC/ Have to say? This is beyond Pathetic it really is.
The only thing I can see Original about Cher is when she does that Leg Kick like she is trying to move the Balls she doesn't have out the way....

Oh dear

Even if she'd just added in a bit of "smash it", "yeah yeah", "gonna bring it", that would of helped her put a bit of a twist on it but that is word-for-word Oh shizzle Cher

I do like her though, i think i do anyways, still a bit undecided tbh

One hundred percent agree - three yesses, you're through. Though I think her twist clashes somewhat with her swag, she really shouldn't get both on at the same time! She must be roasting!

Not as happy as me as it is my video

1.7 million views, I thought I'd only get a few thousand. The emails i have received would make you keel over with laughter.

Original must mean that the artist has copied from another one in XFactorland, just like 'killing it' now means that it was good performance.

Cher would win it if it was the fake factor, but alas it's not.

Cher the fraud.

I think the forum needs a hallowe'en theme. I wish I could photoshop. What fun I'd have with their pics

Spill.

Did you do the other video as well? The one that makes reference to the... ahem... white stuff on her tonsils? Because if you did then you're demented, no offense.

This one is pretty good though and clearly makes the point. It's good to be able to get a direct comparison so that everyone knows the whole 'original' shtick is bollocks.

No I didn't make that nasty video, and I think the one you are referencing was mixed up with mine (and uses portions of mine) in a recent Daily Mail article where I was accused of launching a malicious online campaign against Cher. They mention those allegations but also cited the video as having nearly a million views which mine had at the time (and was the only Cher video with that number).

As I said, I only did it to show the Swizz Beats copy side by side as although it was old news no one had done it. After one day it had 2000 hits, after 3 days it had around 17,000 but I looked again a few days later and it was over half a million.

I've had a fair few people tell me I'm cruel for picking on a 17 year old (not put that nicely though) which is strange given that the X-Factor, by it's nature, destroys the dreams and makes money from the humiliation of thousands of teenagers every year.

Oh and I also had some guy wanna interview me for his web tv show (which I'd never heard of) and had lots of internet marketers asking to put their ads in my description.

I don't think there's anything particularly mean about the video you made, it's looks like she tried to take credit for those lyrics and if that's the case it was a stupid thing for her to do.

Still, I like Cher. I think it's obvious from her first audition she has plenty of talent. I'm sick of people saying 'Cher's trying to be black, or she's is just a cheap version of Cheryl Cole' etc.etc. She's a confident performer, just because she doesn't come on the stage all teary eyed and nervous some people hate her. But myself and many others like her charisma.

I think some of the hate comments on your video are vile but the video itself is fair enough. I will say one thing about it, She never claimed she wrote the Prof. Green verse so i don't know why you included that in it.
