I see no reason to think it is - if anything it hurts him as much as it helps him by annoying some whilst still appealing to others.

I might be wrong but i don't think it is, i think the Jahmene you see on screen is probably the real Jahmene. I think he is too honest to put it on.

Not at all.

Hes a really sweet guy who has gone through so much in his short life. Hes painfully shy but gaining confidence every day.

Lovely lovely guy....one of the nicest.

Agree. Every other contestant has said how wonderful he is and love him. Knowing his past really should settle any question about his character.

Playing up to sob stories?!!?

His father tortured his mother to the point of her not being recognisable to her own children and he made the kids lives hell.
His brother commited suicide and Jahmene almost managed to do so himself because of his fathers cruelty.
The family spent a long time in hiding but thankfully his father is now in prison.

Jahmene works tirelessly, with his mother, helping women and their children escape from domestic violence,

If ever a contestant played up to a sob story Jahmene is not one of them!!

I don't think it's an act at all - his little laugh is basically a nervous tic.

Exactly. I don't get why people are so tough on Jahmene and his back story, it is bloddy horrific! Yes the producers puch it a lot, but that is not the lad's doing. It is sad that they (the producers) cheapen the stories by banging on about it.

everyone seems to go on about his whiney falsetto/vibrato voice, but I think his sound is the best on the competition.....even if he does look like the aliens on the Argos ad
