I think having a double elimination this week will help Fleur. I doubt Fleur will be bottom of the vote on Saturday night as she really stands out and gives memorable performances. I'd imagine she's always quite high in the votes on Saturday night and then by Sunday, her ranking is a lot lower (middle of the pack, just above the bottom 3). Simply because of the edit she got at the beginning (eg her audition wasn't really even shown).

I'd imagine someone like Jack to have the least amount of votes, maybe even Stevi if it wasn't Halloween week.

For anyone that hasn't seen it, here's Addictiv Ladies Best Bits:

Even then Fleur was singing lead

I wonder how the other girls feel at seeing her back and if they are still supporting her
I made that video!

And I love Fleur's transformation <3

I know Vivien is still trying to make it as a singer, Stephanie is an actress now and not quite sure what Nicola is doing, but good to see they are all pursuing their dreams.

I think Fleur would survive no matter who she was against if she were ever in the bottom 2, so hopefully there will be no more auto-elims after this.

Fleur has now gone above Ben in the betting with Paddy Power since the song choice was revealed, and is now third fav at 6/1.

She is 3rd on Oddschecker overall now, which is good news.

Fleur's performance of All About That Bass has hit 1million views!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofxiA48Ex0w

And her Judges Houses performance is the most watched out of all the JH performances (other than Andrea) and is also not far off 1 million views either!

I have always found Fleur one dimensional and boring and extremely overrated. She kind of reminds me of one of a yorkshire terrier in how the hair on her head cascades all over her face to give the authentic "terrier" look.Every week her performances are very similar and never leave me feeling any different. This week she is almost certainly going to get found out. There is simply no way someone of her average ability can pull off A Michael Jackson song. Expect many dancers and some entertaining dancing but also expect a vocal car crash.

Defo going to get criticism from the judges this week.

That is what you are hoping for, but you are probably going to be wrong.

Just goes to show how well Fleur has done since then, which was almost a decade ago.

Fleur is my favourite but I do have a theory why her JH has the most views on YouTube. Just after judges houses had broadcast (in the week leading up to the lives) the main YouTube page for X Factor featured her video on it. This means that whenever you visited the XF YouTube page, her video would automatically start playing. I'm pretty sure that counts as a view. If it doesn't, people would have still clicked on it anyway out of interest since it's playing in the background.

I really hope she pulls of Thriller, very risky but a risk worth taking. I do hope to see her so something else next week, other than an upbeat song (hoping and praying she's still in). You can still rap in slow songs and tbf she doesn't need to rap. I want her to do Sigma's Nobody to love or a slowed down version of No Scrubs.

I'd like to see Fleur as a finalist, but winning could be the proverbial poisoned chalice.

Fleur's favourite MJ song is Rock With You... here is a cover of her on YT singing it:

http://youtu.be/WEYnpHIvr5E

I'd prefer her to sing a Queen song tbh, since she's already done MJ, although I don't really mind as I know she'll be amazing!

Would love to see her do a ballad to silence the haters!

I really want Fleur to do a Queen song too as I think she'll get stick for doing another MJ song. She could maybe do 'We will rock you' as she could possibly rap in bits like the start of the song.

I would imagine Fleur will do a MJ number, as will probably Lauren

Rachel did that and Simon hated it.

Hopefully he'll get it right with Fleur
