Can Shelly win a sing-off
I am struggling to think of any act that the judges will send home and keep Shelly
Shelly has a great voice but just not really what the judges are looking for in X factor. I find it hard to believe they would send home any young act over Shelly even the likes of Luke or Sam C who have weaker voices. Maybe Lorna might be her best chance of staying. Can anyone else see Shelly staying tonight? |

Not really, to be honest. I think Shelley is dead last on TPTB's preference list.

I think If she is against Miss Dynamix it will be
Louis/ Sharon vote out MD Nicole/ Gary vote out Lorna Then it into the unknown |

if she finished bottom of the vote on a night that the theme was ideal for her, given every performance she has done so far has looked 30 years out of date, then I cant see any point in keeping her
and that's despite quite a few of the others being dire last night |

In any case, Miss Dynamix might be lower in the pecking order because of the unanticipated fourth member. |

I would agree with others that her only hope is to be in the sing off with Miss Dynamix or possibly Lorna

Can anyone else see Shelly staying tonight? However, I'm pretty sure that she'll be up against Lorna, who's pitch was all over the place last night.. I still think that the judges will pick Lorna, over Shelley. I'd love to see Miss Dynamix in the bottom 2 with Shelley, but then again, I'm pretty sure, if they were that they'd be kept in..as they will, for a number of weeks, regardless. Rich. x |

Can anyone else see Shelly staying tonight? Shelley's strong point is her personality, but I see that bearing almost no weight in a sing-off. It's all about how you sing, and as the judges have made clear, how you look. Shelley scores low on both fronts, so even if she hypothetically goes up against a weak singer like Sam C or Luke, she's going to lose on "pretty points". Bottom line? In almost any scenario tonight she's screwed. |

Assuming they will sing a song of their choosing I think she would out perform quite a few from last night. The boys category is particularly weak but the judges will have aleady made up their minds and thought through the various permutations. The only way I think she'd stay is if she is up against the girl group. I think that is the likely outcome.

I'm dreading her sing off as I reckon her absolute desperation will make it beyond cringey.
If she starts pouting, thrusting and hitching up her skirt I don't think I can watch without a pillow over my face |

She has an advantage over the other act in the sing off in that she has 24 hours to hone her song and performance - the other one won't know until this evening, , and they won't know until the last minute that they will have to sing again......
Maybe it will make them all work harder on prepping their save me song knowing who they are up against - or even change it at this late stage. That said - I think she is toast tonight....... She took the place that many thought should have been Joseph's, (and that's Sharon's first big mistake!) and the producers know just how badly she polled against the others..... They know who they want out already, and I'm pretty sure Shelly isn't too high up on the survival list as she is definitely NOT the sort of act they want to win Back to the white van tomorrow Shelly - sorry! |

You have two sets of voting figures one of which includes her based on 10 mins of voting and another without her based on 24 hours voting. It would be rotten to use the former as there is no suspense. In the interests of fairness they may have to find another way to split them. Because they have no fair public vote to use. |

The fairest way of doing it would be to do another flash vote with the bottom 2 acts starting from scratch

Really, the public should never be asked to call in twice to decide the fate of one contestant. That'd pretty much kill this show off. |

I'd considered this briefly a couple of days ago, but there's a huge problem with that idea - you're basically throwing out millions of votes and asking people to vote twice in one weekend. Make no mistake, many people who'd have voted already would go ape shit at being asked to do that, and when you think about it, they'd have a point.

I think she might have a chance against Lorna and Miss Dynamix. I can't see them wanting for the first of these flash votes to make Sunday look a bit of a waste of time/anticlimax, so she'll probably have that in her favour and against those two I think that would probably be enough. I think she'd have a fighting chance against Sam Callahan as well.

Depending on who she is up against. If it's Lorna (whom I like) then she has a chance coz I can see the panel preferring her BUT anyone else and it's curtains

I think she's going the public won't vote for Shelley as much as the others.
