My 2 favourites made the final, so although I slightly preferred Ashley, I am delighted Charlie won as she was down to earth, up for the trials and handled Helen the best of any of them.

To Ashley fans who are unhappy with the result, she did great and very nearly won having been 80 - 1 to win at the start of the show, and with a very low fan base compared with most of the others.

I am sure an American can and will win one of these shows at some point.

I agree about the bitching about Nicole, it was totally unnecessary and would obviously be embarrassing for Nicole. I'm not that keen on Nicole but it was not a nice look for Ashley.

Ashley never bitched about Nicole. Show me a quote are a clip?

Ashley is the only pussycat doll Nicole is close with.

I don't really think it had anything to do with GB v USA. It is puzzling that Ashley didn't win, as she was obviously very popular. I can't help wondering if the way she was portrayed in the last few days might have made people go off her slightly.
