Why everyone keep talking about Chris
Yes i am aware this thread is also about Chris.
He is not even that interesting. Yet 80% of the threads about Chris. Whether you like or dislike him surely there is more to the competition than to be drawn to the more controversial act. It's just going in circles. Nobody talks about the actual merits of a singing competition, or anything substantial, it's all idle gossip about this dude. |

I don't mind who wins ........good luck to all three that are left. I've not really had a favourite this year. I like/liked Rylan because for me he was the best of a bad bunch and at least he made me smile and entertained me in his RylanStyle fashion. The rest do absolutely nothing for me music wise.

Double edged sword this series.
People kept talking about how shocking it was that he was getting voted through. As more people talked about this, votes increased for him. No other contestant has had half as many threads or articles about them this series. |

agree with this - trouble is so many start nasty/non-constructive threads and then people come in and defend him and like you say it goes around in circles! If the nasty threads werent created, people wouldnt respond and these threads would drift into oblivion! Actually going to stop posting on these threads as a) it's pointless and b) it just makes me angry. In fact, Christopher aside, how many threads in this forum are constructive about any of the acts?!

As Oscar Wilde once said "There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about." The papers are all doing it..we're all doing it and people are voting for him in spite of getting a real pasting by the "judges," each week.. I think it's hilarious.. Rich. x |

Chris to win! May God have mercy on my soul. LOL! I just figured I'd waited weeks for him to go, but he's managed to stay for whatever reasons people are voting for him, so I decided to go with the flow

I dont get the obsession with Chris being in the final...ok he's not to every bodies taste but he can sing. Acts like Same Difference and Eggnog made the final and less fuss was made - they werent even great singers - Eggnog was medicore at best, as was Ray, as was Leon and Same Difference, Marcus - none of these acts were ever going to go on and sell millions but they were in the final.

It stopped being a singing competition when the crimson crooner got through to the final.

It is really getting ridiculous. All that man does is get on stage every week and sing a decent song with a decent voice.
He is hated for doing that for some odd reason. I just don't get why there is such a hate campaign out for him either. |

Just surprised by the lack of posts in their ![]() Have you seen the amount of hatefully titled threads about the poor guy on this forum? But not so many thread titles in support of the other two competitors which is rather odd. The answer is in the number of votes Chris gets. There will be plenty of forum members who do enjoy listening to Chris singing each week. Sticking your neck out in a forum of hateful posts is not easy. |

Britain has oceans of talent and they wouldn't go anywhere near Syco's circus. |

Tie that with his unbelievable jitters during his audition, as well as his assertion that he never sang before a large audience, and he pretty much brought this upon himself. Though I can understand why Chris did not mention he was a cruise ship crooner.

If I had to guess I'd say some people are annoyed with him for not being honest/forthright by mentioning his singing background during his first audition.

His true nature keeps slipping thru his varnished exterior: at Downing St yesterday to "promote a charity", he only tweeted his presence rather than the name of the charity. He's laughing so hard at us all. Vile.

It's scary that people still think it's really the public vote that gets people through!! Amazing how it's still thought of as a genuine process.......Bless.
