Boogie Storm don't seem a genuine act to me. I think they've been purpose-made for this show. Six professional dancers put in suits and given a routine to dance to.

And I bet the six we saw in the audition were not the same six that we saw in the semi final. They could be swapping and changing every time they perform and no one would know.

It all seems very fishy to me

As you just said in another thread, perhaps you should stop reading the Daily Mail!

No conspiracy i'm afraid. They were created at Jennifer Ellison's dance studios and apparently had an events business running beforehand offering the dancing stormtroopers for hire for parties e.t.c..

But I suppose it's a Cowell show so someone will try and squeeze a "conspiracy" out of thin air.

I don't think it's a conspiracy, I just think it's a bit silly. It could well be six different people each time we see them, but I highly doubt it is. Why would they need to do that when Cowell loves them so much already, and therefore so do the public?!

The only conspiracy I could see was Amanda voting for them to please Simon and hopefully get another contract out of it.*yawn*

I must say it is nice surprise that this isn't a thread about how they have no appeal and therefore couldn't have possibly racked up the votes needed to go through.

I don't feel there is anything fishy going on, looked a similar act to the audition so why would they need to change the dancers?

Good info to know, so they obviously do have some appeal if people were willing to pay them to do it. From the critique on this forum, you'd think they just stood on stage and passed wind for two minutes.

They were okay, but they certainly didn't make me sit up and take notice though.

They were entertaining the first time, but the novelty has worn off now and we know what to expect.

Because if he signs them he can - like the conspiracy theroists suggest - stick anyone he likes in the suits and helmets and no-one will know the difference.

He can replace the original dancers with Eastern Europeans for far less money and cash in.

He could have several different sets travelling the country and the world.
