The above is a quote from the following article: http://goo.gl/Jioa0
Note: I haven't been able to verify the source yet but I thought I would just put this up anyway to annoy people who don't like Janet.

Marcus is ok. He sings fine. He dances ok. He entertains to a limited, background extent. He is competent. He reminds me of many other X Factor acts over many years. Nothing wrong with him
But that's really it. He is bland. Nothing special. No "edge", no "spark", nothing special.
I can never tell with acts like him. He might win through never being someone people target. But he would be a flop as a winner, as very few would have an active interest in him.
So his getting the fewest views does not surprise me in the least.
The only acts that have really fired up sections of the public this year are Janet, Misha and Frankie (the last of these for all the wrong reasons). The rest of them have been alsorans. Marcus is just one of those others.
