Just caught up on X Factor as was out Saturday night so slept yesterday.

What a disaster.

In all the years I've watched X Factor this is by far the worse result.

He was one of my faves.”

That says it all really.

Well it's quite simple really. A hatchet job was done on Anton on Saturday night and so many people will have thought he needed more votes to save him than Sean did. I personally like them both, but would have voted for Anton and not Sean, because I would have assumed he was safe. Obviously incorrectly I thought he would be top 3 and so in no immediate danger.

I hope that Sean gets a career out of this. Maybe its a good thing he's out of there as he's too different and interesting to be one of SCs puppets!

The whole show was a train wreck from start to finish. The theme was confused, they appeared to be reinventing the contestants as well as the songs, you can't reinvent people with a mere 5 minute track record and what is the point? Anton was made to look ludicrous, Mason boring, Che warbled inanely over a slo-mo travesty-arrangement, Monica looked like a 50 year old brothel madam, Max did George Formby meets Eva Cassidy and Sean descended into a camp parody of himself. He should have sung Downtown. Then the fake judging to send the two boys to deadlock so bad boy Mason could survive, presumably to give the show 'credibility' and 'currency'. But he's so unoriginal and dull, about as frightening as a fluffy toy. Ridiculous, and Sean has paid the price.

Do the producers really expect us to believe that the judges decide who goes home - surely to make it more realistic they could have made Simon send Sean home..Whilst Rita sent Mason home”

She has the horn for Mason.

I agree, I looked him up on FB, and what a wonderful song.....! Although really, I would just love to download Seans versión of it.

If you like Donny Hathaway, you might like to watch his daughter perform his song in tribute to him. Watched that yesterday on YouTube, thought it was very very good as well.
