First Look at Bootcamp with a twist this year
First photos of bootcamp have been released with a new twist called the 'wall of songs'.
Looks like it could be carnage... http://www.justsimoncowell.com/singl...-Wall-Of-Songs |

X Factor News Reminds me of childrens TV like Swashbuckle grabbing as many rats as you can.First Look At X Factor Bootcamp And The 'Wall Of Songs' 13 Sep 2016 This year X Factor has added a twist to bootcamp by introducing a 'wall of songs'. The contestants are faced with a wall covered in bits of paper with song titles written on them. The singers, who will be held back until the appropriate time, must run and try and grab a song they want to sing. Insiders called it “Carnage”, with people “obviously fighting” for the song they wanted to sing. Do they also chuck gunge at the "contestants" too ? X Factor meets Its a Knockout ? Can't wait for the car crash episode. |

For god sake, just let them sing what they want. Let them show how good they are, let them show their talent. What's the point of someone like Janet Grogan for example coming out and doing a bloody rock song when it's probably unlikely she would ever sing one in the real world. It's so unrealistic. It's the same with the themes in the live shows. Nobody in the real world as that versatile unless maybe your Beyoncé. Allow them to sing what they want and show us their talent instead of restricting them.

Here's hoping it is complete carnage, to the extent that any Hudson, Whitney, Beyonce songs get ripped in half by shouty screechy divas, that want to be the next Beyonce etc, as in reality one Beyonce is enough.

The show is going downhill at a massive rate of knots.

When the show gets to bootcamp, the songs broadcast are restricted by copyright law, which doesn't apply as strictly at audition stage. To ensure that the producers and editors aren't restricted with the material that they can use, they provide contestants with a list of songs they are 100% cleared for. That's the reason for things like this, and it's just another way of jazzing up the selection process. Sounds quite entertaining to me!
