The likes views statistics are pretty misleading .

I still cant see where they would be placed in the uk market.

They look like small middle aged ladies close up despite trying to dress them as schoolgirls with their one dance fits all routine

Image is everything in the uk somewhat wrongly but they don't have an image that would appeal here.

Would imagine their type of act would be very popular in Asia and suspects that's what Cowell wants a slice of

Well if Simon is hoping to push them in Asia he'll be in for a shock.

K-Pop acts seem to rule the Asian sub-continent and 4th Impact doesn't have a hope in hell against them.

I totally agree I thought they were hideous and the vocals :-O wow girls you scream out that song!! I feel they will be most successful overseas where there is a market! I don't see what niche they would have here.

They remind me of Fluer East a bit. The problem I had with Fluer was that she couldn't sing well, so I love that 4th Impact seem to have what Fleur was missing! They seem really popular in the UK too - it's easy to just make out like their only popular due to other countries, but they are equally as liked here.

With the right songs and record company behind them they will do well here. Just because they not British should not matter. Look at how big ABBA was and they where not British.

Not saying they are like ABBA just pointing out that non-British acts can do well here given the right songs etc.

I like them but I think they could get boring quickly. I think everyone was impressed at first because they were these miniature cute things with massive voices and sick dance moves, but now it's wearing a little thin - all they seem to do is scream. I thought Problem was boring. And what did the stylists have them in? One of them had a satellite dish on her head.

Yes yes and yes again

Simon is desperate for a crack in Asia
He asked the girls to appear having been doing the circuit for years
However they've had no success so far , the Asian pop market is full of groups like them. But with simons cash behind them who knows

Be careful what you say as you will get the filipino fans trolling you, as I've had on Facebook

Kids where I love have more street cred in their little finger than these lot. Why sing such a hip song when you dress them like prepubescent babies.. Not sure who will like them maybe six year olds. Alien come over as unlike able aggressive and 'do it like a dude' suggests feminists who will turn most off.

I can't see it either. I find their apparent popularity baffling.

They don't produce a pleasant sound imo, and they're not edgy or current either.

4th Impact will start this revolution of new female artist... performance and voice for entertainment... not this bikini on stage seems everyone doing it...

They won't be sexed up because no-one wants to see a bunch of girls who look pre-pubescent in bikinis.

It's annoying that she is still being labelled fat four years later.
