I hope not Monica is my favourite. Hope she has done enough. I personally think it was really good.

For people who haven't heard the 50shades version of the song it came across as flat and boring... someone asked me what that song... i just replied beyonce oh oh oh no no... lol that arrangement is just very unrecognisable from the original and the arrangement was made to suit the flow of the film.

Gutted for Monica...if she isn't out 1st...and she in the singoff against kiera, max or Anton...she may have a chance!!! If she's up against anyone else...shray be going home....

Such a shame. ..she had potential too....but there's still hope! !!

I didn't mind the song but that outfit made her look like a whore in distress.

I used the app this morning to send allmy 5 votes to her because ive a feeling shes going to be in trouble after that, ive been watching on catch up and she needs to be allowed to be herself.

She looked uncomfortable the stylist should've never made her wear a dress if she wasn't comfortable.

Monica been my favourite all series, purely because he voice is so incredible and she's very different from other more mainstream females still in the contest. She has a lot of depth to her and what they did last night was right royally chucked her under the bus. Same with Anton last night blatant sabotaging of a contestant.

I hate it when they do this, completely strip a contestant of any ounce of credibility to damage their chances in the show. They did what they did to Carolynne and other female acts, make her look very feminine, emphasising other body areas, making women feel threatened etc. Even Monica herself was completely uncomfortable with what she had to do, you could just tell. Anyone who try to be a little bit different on this show is doomed sadly.

I think she was that uncomfortable in the dress that it affected her singing.

I watched half of Monica's performance- couldn't bear watching the rest cos she looked so uncomfortable. Rita is an absolute dipstick.

Why Rita? She just does what she is paid to do by the producers who make all the decisions.

Thats why i voted for her, because i think she deserves another chance to show us all what shes really about, how she gets it.

I always joke that, however urban and cool a female act is, they always end up singing a power balled in a ballgown - I rest my case

Bloody hell, if I had a figure like that, I'd be wearing a dress and heels all day long! Anyone can wear a flipping' black tracksuit or whatever it was before...

The dancing successively was quite uncomfortable. Though I do think overall her makeover has made Her look better. She is a pretty girl but her previous image was so horrendous that it was not clear that she was attractive. Her image was also so chavvy that it was a bit off putting. She seemed to be modelling herself on Adriana from the Sopranos with the Croydon facelifts, Pat Butcher earrings, awful fake nails and trashy track suits. Thankfully she had a great voice to get her through, but she was at risk of becoming another Rachel Hylton.
