Having just met a load of the contestants at Westfield, I can honestly say that...

How come you didn't take any pics? Not that I'm saying I don't believe you, just that if it were me, I know I would have taken a bunch of pics.

Shes in our local panto this year, (as the wicked witch)

Hope she's luckier this time than last time http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1206003

She's also appeared in the West End as well so she's not doing badly. Good luck to her.

I would suggest being there quite early afternoon.

Glad to hear Frankie was nice

That must have been exciting running into them like that

Yeah, the judges don't need to say someone's nice when they're not, especially when they're not in their category. I like Marcus, he seems the least fake of all of them.

I suspect the OP is a Mischa fan and wants to knobble the competition.

Janet looks stunning in real life, plus Frankie didn't seem to be as full of himself as I thought he'd be. Misha was absolutely lovely, really patient and just seemed very warm. You could tell, however, that Markus really fancied himself and definitely seemed the one least open to pose with fans. He just didn't eminate very much warmth and you could tell people were really wary of approaching him.

Can't wait until next Saturday!”

Glad you had a good time and a shame that Marcus sounds rude. I knew Misha would be nice and I bet there will be those who take issue with your comments about her.

Apologies for the incorrect spelling! To be honest I can't quite fathom some of these cynical responses, its actually been Marcus and Sophie that I've been rooting for since judges' houses, although I'd be perfectly happy with anyone winning tbh, there's no one who really gets on my nerves other than Frankie, and last night he did come across as quite humble. I did take a few photographs which i put on Facebook (one of my friends called Misha's hair 'that fire hazard', ha ha!), why anyone would think I'd make a story up like this is beyond me. Sorry if I caused anyone offence, i was just surprised at how Marcus came across off camera as a sulky diva, whereas the person who seems to get a lot of flak for her supposed attitude was actually clearly very warm and genuine.

Something else I noticed was Janet and Frankie seem quite close; a child at my school had been to the vue cinema and also saw them but was livid that The Risk didn't seem to be around!!

Moose that can be your opinion on both of them, It was possibly just for last night but anyway like I said Chelsea Redfern (Got to the top 12 girls this year) said Marcus is very lovely and humble and was amongst the nicest people at bootcamp.

She said Frankie was very rude until they practiced singing and suddenly he was nervous.

Also others who met him yesterday and at Fountain studio's say he is possibly the nicest of the lot.

:O My cousin met them two, she said Misha, Johnny and Kitty came across well!

She said Marcus seemed bored to be there! She said that frankie was not bad either!

She thought kitty was the nicest though!

I totally get that this is just my opinion and other people might interpret it differently, won't say any more about Marcus and if he does win rest assured I won't be disappointed. It really was a great experience looking up from a mac and seeing them all there! My partner just did not see what the fuss was about and was more interested in sorting a mac out whereas I was just in awe! Would love to have seen Sophie there as well, shame she was voted off

I've personally disliked Marcus from the start - there's something about the guy I find disingenuous and nasty, but there've only been very subtle signs of it shown so I didn't post about it.
Can I also say that I don't really get why he was picked ? His voice seems very forced and lacking in tone.
There was a guy called Lascal, who was eliminated, who had a FAR superior soul-type voice and seemed a more talented and interesting person.

Was he the chap whose mother was bi-polar? He had a beautiful voice

I do believe you two are talking about the same person here. Lascel Woods.
Going by your logic though CustardCreamed surely Frankie is who should not be there instead of Marcus

Interesting how the OP said that the overs weren't there.

So which if you is lying, just to try and be in the DS X Factor Forums Cool gang?

The person who posted could have meant they met them. Not that they met them at the same time.

It's probably better if you don't get me started about Skankie....

The poster you quoted probably met them completely separately on another date or at a club or wherever.

Well I'm certainly not lying, another person on the first page mentioned their friend seeing them there too. It's possible the other poster meant another sighting, or even that johnny and kitty were there, just not at the Apple store where I saw them. I did see Kitty at the O2 for Britney and she literally did get mobbed!
