I have watched every series of the X Factor and I can say without a doubt that Gary Barlow is the worst judge I have ever seen.

I do not know if this is the real Gary Barlow or if the show wanted him to take on the role of Simon after he left the show.

During this series Gary has:
Defended the behaviour and performaces of Frankie. He admitted on a live show that he lied in his comments after a Frankie performance.

Is constently rude to Louie.

Made an uncalled for attack on Amelia in a singoff by saying she was shouting her song instead of just saying what act he wanted to send home,

Insulted live on air a singer (lead singer from T'Pau) from another generation

I beleive he has let the fact that he thinks he is the new "Simon Cowell" get to his head and has gone overboard.

I truly hope he is not on the show next season

i agree

Tulisa by a country mile

Shes so far out of her depth she needs an aqualung

Gary and Kelly are both bad judges, IMO.

You can add to the list his insulting of Sammi and then getting mad when Louis made similar comments to Frankie.

Gary Barlow has been the worst.

- chose Frankie
- encouraged Frankie to behave badly
- promised he'd never lie, and then did so repeatedly
- Craig shouts in his sing-off, so he complains Amelia does
- complains Janet is dull and unchanging, yet pretends Craig is not
- complains that other judges bring up song choice, but does it himself
- has his script ghost-written by James Corden's co-writer

BIB both unproven "facts" and your opinion. These would be claimed as circumstantial in court and your case would fall apart.

Good thing we're not in court then. Of course it's all my opinion!

Some people might think choosing Frankie was a GOOD thing - that's opinion too. All of this is about your own personal, subjective opinion.

admitted he lied about Frankie but STILL continuing to support him.

Scenario from contestants coming in to rehearse...

Gary: Marcus is that vodka you're sneaking in?

Marcus: no? its just water!

Gary: I don't believe you hand it over! we can't afford to take any chances over contestants with the strict drinking ban!

*frankie comes in smelling of booze and practically half asleep*

Gary: Ah, Frankie my dear boy, I know you've been out partying and drinking all night but that can only do you good for expressing your creativity! Seeing as you are my Chosen One of course I won't mind! Good on you lad! I'll make sure you go far!


....it's probably true though!

Gary mainly for choosing Frankie over James who ran rings around him and supported him for weeks before his axe.

Kelly is bias and terrible as well.

It's a toss up between Gary and Kelly

Tulisa lacks knowledge.

Kelly lacks a fair approach.

Gary lacks charisma.

Louis lacks a little green suit.

Gary has gone from hero to zero IMO. I thought he was excellent right up until the live shows and then he started acting like a massive arse. His snide and totally unnecessary dig at Carol Decker was the last straw. One thing that really annoys me about him is he frequently seems tactical in his criticism, while simultaneously being a complete hypocrite by having acts that could be criticized in the same way and accusing others of being tactical.

Kelly also irritates me. At least Gary gives feedback. Kelly just opens her mouth and lets the silly and incoherant slang and buzzwords fall out. It was funny at first, but now it's just tiresome.

PMSL

And a little green top hat with a four leaf clover on top to go with it!

in fact, I think he should take a few styling tips from this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o1zXk...eature=related

Gary has been the worst judge ever, by miles. Kelly is dreadful as well, hope neither of them are back next year.


And also, when did it become OK to take the piss out of people over their nationality, I must've missed that memo.

I agree with others who said Gary has got worse... his T'Pau insult was odd and unprofessional.

gary and kelly

Tulisa lacks knowledge

the best line up was sharon dannii simon & louis!

Kelly is the worst judge ever.

I really lost respect for Gary when he said Amelia shouted- low blow when he should have been just saying he wanted her sent home. Also thought the Carol Decker comments were totally uncalled for.

i dont rate louis as a judge tbh but i love how his mouth just runs away with him and half of the comments he makes are so random it makes me laugh like im surprised he hasnt said to a contestant ur from liverpool but we need all of bulgaria to pick up the phone and vote lol

Gary,kelly and tulisa are all dreadful.

Kelly is a terrible judge/mentor. She is also the most annoying person to have ever walked this planet.
