According to ladbrokes
Amelia Lily - 1/7
James Michael - 5/1
2 Shoes - 20/1
Jonjo Kerr - 40/1

No surprise really, i'm a little surprised James isn't shorter.

This is not happening. Amelia has a huge following for somneone booted out in the first week. She has almost 4x the twitter followers she had when she was eliminated. Her fans will vote in droves to keep her in, not to mention the new fans she will gain through her live performances.

I have set aside £1000 to vote for Amelia during the live shows.

well to be honest, about a week ago. you probably could have hired her for a private gig with that amount of money.

Amelia? is she just another one of a fast growing list of "girls" that might think that if you had it off publicly with Frankie, you could use his fame to get ahead. She hangs around after getting the boot for weeks and ends up with Frankie in an underground car park, with resultant fresh press attention when she was nearly forgotten.

As to the latest Frankie wanabees

Amelia is what Simon Cowell is to fashion.


Not very trending.

I don't quite know about trending, but Amelia is just one of a growing Herd of Heffers on Frankie's bum.

Frankie's voters might switch their allegiance to his blow-up doll?

Does she have all the twitter followers because of her shenanigans with Frankie? I'm guessing so. She's in danger of being the female equivalent of him. We've seen her out getting papped more often since she got the boot than we saw of her during the audition stages and her very brief stint in the live finals. She's a media tart, her voice just isn't up to it in comparison to the majority of the remaining acts. Save your grand and invest it in magic beans, you stand a better chance of getting a good return.

I'd be wary of that. If she'd stayed in week 1 and consistently been performing amazingly throughout I'd say she'd be well on her way to an X factor win. But because of how she's being brought back, a lot of people, even those who like her, won't vote for her on principle.

I am quite surprised really, as I really didn't rate her live performance on the first live show. And yes she was better in her audition process, I felt 2shoes for example have been more consistent and better singers overall.

So for her to be so popular means there must be something else about her other than her singing ability, perhaps it is because she is in the papers a lot more? Popularity does seem to depend on familiarity.

I still think the fairest option show have been the lad since he was voted out over Frankie and so should take his place. This would leave the judges with the same amount of acts as they did, and leave everything almost the same.

i'm going to call shenanigans on that

anyway, as i said in the poll thread, a mate of mine is convinced that jonjo will be the winner purely by virtue of him being a squaddie and it being remembrance weekend.

Good point, but many might be hoping to see Frankie's name tatooed on Amelia's bum on stage.

There are videos of amelia singing in her bedroom on youtube, and you can see from those videos when she is given the right music, she is in a different league to anyone left in that competition vocally

Annoyingly, I saw bookies odds on Amelia to win about a week ago at 200/1, and I was tempted to put £1 on her, but I thought there was no way the producers would go as far as to bring someone back this late on...

...apparently anything can happen!

It does not matter which of them come back... they should NOT be in with a shot of winning a show they have only joined half way through the live shows. Disgrace.

I thought that at first, but looking at the mail today, the comments seem to favour a James return, we could be in for a shock! Top comment is for James by about 600 green thumbs ups! plus I think people think that its fairer for a boy to replace a boy. I dont really care to be honest.
