Is the best thing about Katie, the way she adlibs with her 'wooo' in a song?

Cruiseship? Get real. Katie would be lucky to get a children's birthday party gig.

She would be lucky to get a busking gig without being issued with an asbo!

Nought wrong with trying to get "Real" reaction from the audience instead of the fake whooping, cheering and screaming when One Direction, Matt and Rebecca are on.

Does anyone really think that the first six rows of "young" women are there by right? No, they are their for effect to further the dream final, just behind Simon and responding to his every request.

The trouble is, the public are soo willing to buy it and diss any other act struggling to get the unwilling audience to join in with them.

She was only trying her best. She knows she could be in trouble so was trying to get that performance which really gets the crowd appreciating her, a reaction she hasn't really had yet and other acts have. The way she has gone about the show since the beginning has not helped, sometimes she has come off as bat-s*** crazy desperate but she has calmed down a bit I think. She has dug her own hole with how people perceive her as well as external influences grabbing a spade but what is she really do but try and pull off a big performance to get the response she needs to survive.

In this situation though she really should have read the crowd, it was pretty clear that the crowd were not going to interact with her during the song and I would have expected her to realise that and left it. It was embarrassing to see her do it with the reaction she got, it would have been much better if she left it out.

Well clearly her best isn't good enough! It's not hard to work out what the problem with Katie is. She's rubbish!

I know and I agree. All I was saying really is that you can't blame her for trying something different.

Lol. X Factor is called crap because the so called artists are only really 'judged' on vocal ability. Most of the time they can't play musical instruments, a lot of them can't or won't dance and none of them posess song writing skills as far as I can see. So they are only judged on vocal ability... And Katie can't even master that!

Aiden and Paije were far superior to her for what the competition is supposed to be. But vocal ability has been replaced with who can get the most column inches this year. Good thing for the show right now... Not so great for the next few years as a lot of people won't care enough to re-invest their time in the show next year.

Anyone else think Katie looks like a hobbit? In fact she looks like a cross between Frodo Baggins and Bruce Forsyth!

As I have NEVER bought or READ a newspaper for over 20 years, your argument falls flat. I careless about publicity and more about vocal talent.
Maybe those that DO read the tabs are the ones that take great issue with her, not those that judge her on her performances alone.

Vocally, IMO, Katie far IS superior to Paije, Aidan and Treyc.

Some lead guitarists, drummers and bass players can't sign a note either. Does that mean their not musicians ? Bass playing isn't exactly difficult. Song writing skills can be learned after and some of the worlds most popular songs are for people by other artists.

A lead singers voice is their musical instrument.

Aiden was an good for one song and Paije was karokee or cruise ship, maybe Xmas panto if you push it.

BIB - Because of this sentence, your ability to make any kind of judgement falls flat.

Katie's adlibs are the worst thing about her. Except of course for "sod it", which was the best thing she's ever done.

I agree about a lead singer's musical instrument being their voice, but the X Factor isn't just about musicians it is about stars. To me, a star entails more than being able to sing well. Katie as far as I can see, falls at the first hurdle of vocal talent. She has a good voice that she can't control and therefore lacks as a musician. You can have the best guitar in the world, if you can't play it well then you cannot call yourself a musician.

The show is meant to be about who has the "X Factor" which is a combination of stage presence, vocal ability and talent.

It's already been shown that Katie can play piano, guitar and has wrote songs so by your own admission is more of musician than Rebecca, 1D and so.

Like her or not she has stage presence and actually performs the songs, Rebecca is a great singer but is very paint by numbers .

X Factor is really just the training ground because it's after that in which they'll learn how to work the stage, write songs and how albums are produced, just look at the difference between Leona then and how she holds the stage now .

Oh come on! Rebecca has an amazing voice and knows how to use it! She can't even be mentioned in the same breath as Katie!

Look, I'm willing to agree that this is a matter of opinion so I'll respect yours but I personally think Rebecca has 100 times more stage presence and doesn't have to keep jumping up and down or reinventing herself to maintain it.
