Everyone is entiltled to send a tweet and say how they feel but i really felt that the show usung the tweet about Tameras nan was in pretty poor taste. Poor on the producers part for selecting that one to be shown on the screen and poor of Matt for choosing to read that one out to Tamera. Tweets selected should be about the acts' performances or appraisal, and not jibing at family members. Tamera looked quite hurt.

Maybe im being a bit soft here but it really bugged me. It all just comes across a bit low rent now

it bugged me too. it stunned tamera speechless, until she said, "my nan will kill you!"
face palm.
the whole situation was silly and it provoked her into saying something that will be taken out of context.

I know Tamera has been in the headlines for all the wrong reasons and people disliking her for that which is fair enough but to do that regarding her nan is disgusting...just poor taste. It's proven how low Xtra Factor has gone. If they want to say something about Tamera (positive or negative) then fine but no relevance in insulting her nan

Xtra factor was always a highlight for me - I liked it when Holly fronted the show, and thought Konnie Huq provided some hilarious moments (mostly unintentionally). For me the best time was always with Olly and Caroline - I just thought they were really good together. I don't like it so much anymore as I find Matt annoying and his jokes in poor taste a lot of the time, and it's descended into silliness. Not that it wans't silly with Olly and Caroline but I just found it a lot more entertaining I guess.

I agree with all of you. It was totally uncalled for, horrible.

It was after Holly left where the show went totally downhill. We had the borefest Konnie Huq, then the idiotic pair Flackster and Dolly Olly and now Pratt Matt. Remove Caroline and Matt, put in Rylan to host Xtra Factor because I think he'll be a better presenter than singer - I think he might do a good job but might annoy a few people as well

I have to disagree with you. Konnie was pure genius and brought great wit when she presented.

I loved Konnie, but I think her humor was a bit over the majority of the audiences head.

People want custard pies in the judges faces, not intelligent wit they can't follow.

What was the gist of the tweet?

I'd completely forgotten that Holly Willoughy used to present the show!

Not much of a fan of Mr Murs at all but the shows with him and Flack were much better than what I have seen so far with this Matt guy. Totally unfunny.

She's intelligent but she was totally dull, which is probably why Simon got rid of her IMO
