i can't stand all the booing for poor wagbo and the hard time everyone seems to be giving him.
How hypocritical of simon to say "you're not having a pop at me, you're denying some talented artist a chance", when they did the exact same thing when THEY put him through?

How are wand erection a serious boy band? There's two decent solo singers, they can't dance (running around the judges seems to be the most challenging choreography they can tackle - and even that seems to be too difficult for them), they can't sing in harmony or anything like that, even "manufactured" boybands in the past were perfectly capable of giving decent performances acapella, even JLS for gods sake. Yet they keep on hyping them up as if they were the new beatles or something.

Vote Wagner!!!

They're both joke acts but in different ways. My thoughts on Wagner are well known here, he is beyond a joke, but I do agree with you that One Direction are pathetic as a boy band and once Wagner has gone it will be time to get rid of both them and Cher.

Wand Erection, the fact that it's the quarter finals and we have still yet hear a couple of them sing beggars belief.

Well, if you consider the first two performances last night - Wagner came out, sang a serious song mostly in tune, without a big production or any jumping around; One Direction sang a song about a sex act that they picked out for themselves, with a ridiculously loud backing track and a whole dancing troupe, they spent most of the performance running around the stage like idiots, and they kept going offkey.

One Direction are the bigger joke act in my opinion. How any of the judges can sit there and give them high praise week after week is beyond me. If Cowell was not their mentor, my guess is that they would be gone by now.

i mean look at nsync (or take that, or backstreet boys, or whoever you like). The usual "oh but in every bband there's some weaker signers" are just ridiculous. Even though that might be true, they're still capable of singing in perfect pitch / in harmony (video as an example...), and they'd usually be the stronger dancers anyway. I really really don't get the hype.

And everytime she uses a 20-year-old Madonna throw-off style.

First we saw Material Girl rip-off, now were seeing a non-sexual brunette a-la Papa Don't Preach.

No one is really a joke out. Of course though, this is DS, and therefore One Direction (can't you just call them by their actual name? it's rude and super immature.) are mass puppy murderers who mime, steal money from charity boxes, support terroists and therefore should be made to cry, leave the competition etc.

I dislike Wagner, but he's proved that he can, to some point, sing. I'm not going around saying he's a joke act, am I?

To be honest every act is a bit of a joke - none of them would have a cat in hell's chance of making it outside of the Xfactor. Matt may as well be Brookstein's young brother as far as I'm concerned.
