Katie Waissel.

Haha only kidding. I loved Johnny Robinson's final save me performance, got everyone on their feet. It was so obvious they were going to send him home, I was hoping they would surprise us by saving him.

Katie.

Not kidding.

Agree completely re: Johnny. What a lovely man.

The one that really got to me was Nikitta Angus.

She delivered week in, week out, despite some horrific song choices from her so called mentor, and would have WALKED X Factor 2006 (yes even over queen Leona) had she been given the right material from him. To be voted out over Ray, who was diabolical most weeks was ridiculous, and I really had hoped that she could pull it back, as her early popularity was huge.

I also wasnt happy with Diana's exit, purely because at this point literally everyone had jumped on the Hate Diana bandwagon, and for her to get put out over Eoghan really made me sad. She was a teenage girl, with an incredible talent and was getting so much hate it was unreal.

Bad Lashes were a shame too, as they had real potential, but they never stood a shot really.

Niki Evans. I thought she had won the show, can't believe she was 17 votes behind Same Difference that night. She came 4th but should have atleast made the final 2.

Treyc Cohen. Possibly one of the best singers ever to be on X Factor and they just terrorized her with mediocre song choices that had been killed in previous years.

Diana Vickers. I was so sad.

Ruth Lorenzo. When she sang 'Always' I wanted to cry. It was like she was saying 'That's me done. I'm giving up.'

Miss Frank. These girls were fresh and we definitely need something like them in the charts. Loved Grazielle's raps in the song and I thought they were a fresh version of the original Sugababes.

Stacey Solomon. Thought she was incredible.

I'll never forget my ex was trying to drag me to G-A-Y (for the first time) and I was all like.. "Nawh, don't wanna miss the X Factor!" ...eventually he convinced me and I'll always remember how thankful I was as that was the night Rowetta got eliminated, I was gutted but I had an awesome night out and saw Girls Aloud live...every cloud huh? Lol..

I don't think that any elimination has really angered me but Stacey Solomon's was the one I was least happy with. Olly annoyed me and Joe was OK but not as good as Stacey. I watch her audition now and think "Why did she not win?!".

Diana Vickers - Although I'm glad she didn't go on to win, she definitely deserved a place in the final
Treyc Cohen - Such an unfair elimination on behalf of Cheryl. She had so much more to give. Everyone knew she obviously had more votes than Katie.
Sophie Habibis - Another girl who had so much more to give. And like Treyc, we all know she obviously had the most votes and would be curbed by Kelly. Her last song choice was absolutely woeful!
Ruth Lorenzo - Probably the best dark horse of any X-Factor. X Factor 5 had a lot of stiff competition but Ruth very much should have hit the finals

The uproar after Lucie's elimination was amazing in retrospect. I was fuming at the time, but looking back at the sheer impact it seemed to have everywhere demonstrated just how far the show stretched.

I'm always upset when someone I like gets the boot but really angry I got when Aiden was axed over Katie.
That made me mad cause it was so obvious they only did it cause Katie made headlines, Aiden
was so much better than her. He really had potential unlike Katie who was in the bottom two every week and people knew she wouldn't make it.

I know the feeling. I was actually seething when Aiden was sent home. In fact, I spent some of the night angry tweeting afterwards

Definitely Lucie, she wasn't my favourite that year but at least she can sing.

Nicolo - Thought it was very unfair that he was given such crappy styling/song choice and VT and then didn't even get a sing off to show what he's made of. I was genuinely gutted that night!

Aiden - It's been said already. Eliminated over annoying Katie and he was just so good.

Amelia Lily last year really annoyed me. She was my early favourite, and I just couldn't stand Misha B or take to Sophie Habibis. None of the girls deserved to go though, it was the decision to include the twist to eliminate someone from every category that was beyond ridiculous.

Jamie Archer was another one that annoyed me. If only because he lost to the weak-voiced Lloyd. Jamie was a rare kind of singer that we don't usually get on a show like this, and I was thoroughly enjoying his performances.

Yep, me too. This was when I started to lose it with X Factor, Cowell taking it to deadlock confirmed what a fraud he was and that the show was fixed.

He had spent the previous weeks stating how much he disliked Jedward - then when he had the chance to send them home, he realised how much money he could make by keeping them on the show

Dannii had the chance to send Waissel home in week 4 but chose to save her over Belle Amie.

It's obvious she was forced to save KW, just like Cheryl was forced to save her over Treyc in week 5.

Maria Lawson in Series 2, that was beyond ridiculous!

Also Lucie Jones against Jedward was the biggest insult to the public and Lucie's fans.

Treyc in Series 7, there was no way you could possibly say that Katie performed better in the sing-off and for them to then go to Cheryl 2nd in the decision, knowing that she'd refuse to vote is what makes it so annoying.

Janet in last year's Week 8 bottom two was amazing, then the judges go and base it on what they saw in the show the night before when the whole point of a sing-off is to give them that second chance, the fact that they also said that they wanted to save who would sell out arena's etc... then saved Misha B who was on her third bottom two appearance, having finished last in the vote every time.

Lucie

Aidan

Mary Byrne (even though I don't mind Cher Lloyd, the favouring of her (and Cheryl in general) was annoying).

Dannii had the chance to save Mary and send Lloyd home that week - Mr Cowell was once again pulling the strings.

Simon was at his worst in series 7. After finding out about his fling with Dannii, I think it was obvious that he was favouring Cheryl just to get back at her.
