Why are they praising the awful Reggie and Bollie?

They're Jedward 2.0. I don't get it.

They do the same thing every week.

Is it to try and justify Cheryl being a judge? Does she get a new contract if she gets them in the final? The OTT dancing and screaming from her is SO embarrassing.

it is because they are a fun act.
I like act that can sing and I do not think that they can sing but are just lot of fun

British teenagers like Reggae style, and they're the main voting demographic.

They have no talent. The show just gives them big expensive productions every week and ramps the backing track up really really loud. The hype for them is utterly absurd.

As much as I like them, they are probably being pushed as they are not a threat to Louisa

Another reason they are 'bigging' them up is because the will need a fun act for the XFactor tour perhaps.

They fill a massive hole in today's music industry. They are fun and catchy and will sell records.

They remind me of a young Boney M

Was thinking this if they win it just proves its an entertainment show not a singing competition

They are way ahead on the FB likes with 3.2k likes already. They could well win the whole show.

Reggie and Bollie produce the reggae style music the teenagers like to listen to as Black Lace produced the songs all the cool kids listened to in the 80s.

They're a joke comedy act who sing songs in a reggae style. To confuse that with serious reggae music that is popular among young people is hilariously out of touch.

Calling their style of music reggae is "hilariously out of touch" it's called afrobeats mate and it is very current.

I kinda hope they stay now right to the end.

Reggie and Bollie vs Anton - THE FINAL. Smell those ratings.

It reminds me a little of the over-hype of Little Mix. Tell the public who to like and they follow the Pied Piper.

I don't think they are the best singers but they do bring fun to the show

I really hope they make the final, just like Same Difference did, if only for a bit of variety, alongside the two girls probably

Jeesh could you imagine something like Louisa/Lauren/Che final?

The show is trying far far far far too hard to make me like them so I just don't.

They are the most overhyped X Factor act ever and that takes some doing.
