What DO they have in common? Sweet FA to be honest but Simon picked them both, so, hey lets lump them together! I really can't believe that some people can be so narrow-minded. And there's that old 'sob story' quote yet again. If Andy had got through would he have had the same accusation levelled against him?

Wey Hey
I said that without touching the keyboard... word perfect a.a.t.j ,I couldn't have put that better myself.
Now,about the Andy sob story thing,yes I think people would have reacted the same way they have had he been put through instead of the tortuous Tabitha Osbourne...the GBP are nothing if not consistent,SC knows this too.
What's more if Simon had got Louis' mob he would have picked Peters and Lee aka 2 non talents for the same reason...he just loves his 'project'

Yep it surely is, but I'm just trying to put things in perspective and understand the reason for the view that people have.

I say good for her, she never begged to be put through or make a song & dance about it.Simon saw how much this competition meant to her & gave her that chance.
