ANY one else would get told off for never moving around the stage!
im sure EVERY week shes just stood there, sung ok, looked to her side and used her hands! Why wont they pick up on this! I really dont get the hype - the past 2 weeks I think shes been poor! |

Well obviously they like her vocal, it's not rocket science; and she looks fantastic. What does she really need to jump around and look stupid for?

Dannii mentioned it tonight.
The biggest flaw with her though is that she often hits bum notes, and her voice runs away with her but because she looks good and her voice is distinctive, they never pick her up on it. |

cos she is going to cover the market for those that like jazzy zstuff. jazz singers don't hop around, they sing brilliantly.
those that are crap throw 'rap' parts into virtually every bleeding song they absue. or burn themsleves by performing a song that was done far better by non-winning Jamie Archer last year.

Whatever Simon says about everyone else...she is the one he wants. That's why.
It's unfair, but I wish her all the best. I'm Wagner through and through but Rebecca is a class act. She's just not cut out for the whole XF thing. To me it's the penance she has to go through to get a deal. I don't know why people get so vitriolic though. She's just a young girl who wants to sing. Fine if you don't like her but why all the hatred? |

I mean i don't like Cher but I give her credbility for atleast mixing things up, eg rapping, doing a ballad, (even if she does rip other artists off)

They're all very predictable in certain ways. The fact is she does stand really out in terms of vocals whether people like her or not; she knows what she is and does, The problems she has for most people (that love to moan) in regards to moving around would be ironed out in no time when she gets signed. Most people are really terrible performing on this show anyway in terms of physical prowess; simply walking around a little is not really any kind of performance to me, and surrounding them with dancers and fireworks isn't going to fool anyone with sense.
I know what you mean and I know when she gets signed the moving around won't matter, but I just really feel she doesnt show versitility - she sings a good song every week and sings it well but I dont think she stands out whereas katie and cher (who i'm not huge fans of!) atleast do different things |

She has serious tuning issues but she is very likeable, classy and a different voice which masks her flat notes so she gets away with it. I am very indifferent to her. Apathy has to be more insulting that actively disliking someone, at least they evoke some kind of emotional reaction even if it is negative. With Rebecca I am just "meh". |

But the 2 backing singers were dancing very close to her in the 2nd song tonight - i think it was to throw some movement around Rebekka and stop the statue

Rebecca offers what she offers - take it or leave it - and I'm sure that she will go home with grace and dignity if or when the voting public deem that she should. Also, ask yourself this: why don't the judges criticise certain acts for not being aesthetically pleasing? Why don't they point out the ugly or average lookers? Maybe it's because they can't help it. Well, maybe Rebecca can't dance. Maybe she's tried and just cant so she plays to her strengths. Nothing wrong with that. |

I know Rebeccas main style is just to stand their and sing but people like Stacey got really critisized for that last year and Mary has done this year - atleast they moved once or twice! so the only thing that Stacey could have done was to put on a bit of a show. Rebecca OTOH has a thrilling voice and looks so bloody hot.

When people complain about acts being boring, it's the just lazy and easy to try and attack and act you don't like. I can say I find any of the other acts boring, and I do, but it just depends on what you're looking for when watching such a show. In fact people were slagging off the contestants on this show as selling out, but she isn't at all, in fact perhaps the only one that hasn't; her identity is still intact throughout this entertainment farce. |

She has had about as much criticism as she's deserved. She really doesn't need to move around. It's not the type of performer she is. I guess the judges judge her on her own terms because they see that her own terms are good enough. People with average voices need to dance well. People who can't dance well need good voices. Rebecca has a really good voice and isn't much interested in compromising herself. Matt can't dance but gives it a go. Good for him but I'd respect him if he refused to do it.
Rebecca offers what she offers - take it or leave it - and I'm sure that she will go home with grace and dignity if or when the voting public deem that she should. Also, ask yourself this: why don't the judges criticise certain acts for not being aesthetically pleasing? Why don't they point out the ugly or average lookers? Maybe it's because they can't help it. Well, maybe Rebecca can't dance. Maybe she's tried and just cant so she plays to her strengths. Nothing wrong with that. I think Diana Vickers had a very good voice - not as strong admitedly but a similar tone to Rebecca, and she admitted she wasn't a strong dancer but in the end HAD to do some moving just to shut louis up - i mean ok if she doesnt like dancing thats fine, I just don't think the judges give Rebecca enough criticism for that and also for One Direction who are REALLY weak singers and obv have a backing track with prerecorded voices on! |
