Great line-up this year. Big improvement on 2011, when only Coldplay was the highlight.

Maybe Simon's finally realised there's no point flogging a dead horse?

Good promotion for the third placed act on BGT this year

They were fantastic on Britain's Got Talent, just the thing we need

I'm quite excited for this final now.

RITA ORA? Bloody Kia Ora again? Why? She's not even popular. And people can whine on about her three number ones, but one was a featured artist and the other two didn't have much longevity or make a sizable cultural impact. She's not even affiliated with SYCO... why does it feel as if the whole industry has joined forces to convince the world she's a superstar? It's SO desperate and WEIRD. WHY!?!?!?

Exactly the same as what happened with Jessie J.

At least Jessie J has a bit of originality to her, The fact they've got Rita muscling in on what Rihanna is doing AGAIN is a joke.

Excited for Kelly Clarkson, she's a superstar and deserves these slots, much like P!nk last week. Glad to see a slight shift (Ora ignored) towards talent over style from the show.

Leona is bound to appear, unless Sande gets the "singing over the clips montage" slot from her.

Bloody Sande would show up at the final or anything to sing her crap, she's getting worse than McCartney for being wheeled out, singing the same song, over and over.

If Emeli Sande sings that bloody Read All About It, I will be fuming that song is probably the most overplayed song of the year, I don't think I could take yet another version of it!

Like her or hate her Jessie J had an undeniably huge first era selling shedloads of albums and singles including doing reasonably well in the US.

Have to wait and see how she'll do on her next album but confident it will do better than Rita's first.

Hopefully Kelly performs Catch My Breath which has so far had a dismal peak of #51; although a medley would sell the greatest hits better (which has peaked at #24 and is currently #30 in the midweeks).

Agree with that

She splits opinion but she has some credibility.

Rita Ora...NO. Such a Rihanna rip off.

Yeah don't know what has happened to Kelly. She hasn't done as well as her Since Youve been gone days.

No, on top of performing with her acts, she's reported to perform her new single.

The Olympics has had a snowball effect. The 'read all about it' song then reached a wider (i.e. older) audience and became even more irritating. God knows why she was given 3 separate slots in the ceremonies compared to the other talent in this country.

Leona Lewis would have given a much better rendition of 'Abide with me', seemed so weak at the time.

She's gonna, and she's gonna look that same constantly smug way when she does it.

She's worse than McCartney and Hey Jude, the slightest whiff of an event or potential "moment" and they dust one of that pair off and shove them out to bleat to the audience.

Can't stand Emeli Sande.

Kylie and Only Boys Aloud will make a nice change. Kelly is the basically the queen of reality TV so it's a good thing she gets the chance to sing.

Emeli Sande is everywhere and she's not even that great.

One Direction? Haven't the been on it twice this year.

Rita Ora is terrible beyond words and Rihanna has been performed on the X Factor so many times they will soon be getting her to tip in on staff birthdays.
