Who do you think are the worst ever X Factor contestants?

Reggie and Bollie.

could be this season

Honey G and the chicken twins have to be up there.

I've probably blanked a lot out over the years but the one whose success absolutely baffles me is Ray Quinn. Olly Murs as well. I remember watching his audition expecting Simon to say 'what the bloody hell was that rubbish' and I was beyond shocked when they praised him to high heaven

It really does have to be Honey G and The Glltter boys from this year, followed by Wagner.

Steve Brookstein
Chris Baloney
Che Chesterman
Reggie and Bollie
Ryan Ruckledge
Rylan Clark (great as a host but not as a contestant)

Would put Abi Alton and Sam Callahan from 2013 here, but they were fun to take the mick out of on Twitter

Also Jedward, Chico, Katie Waissel, Stevi Ritchie.

honey g and the chicken guys, have to agree. they're not even funny to be considered joke acts. just a disrespect towards who spent time watching the auditions waiting to see talented people in hopes for a good live show

Not the absolute worst, but Eoghan Quigg irritated the hell out of me.


EDIT

In terms of basic crapness - Wagner

My top 10 worst that got to the lives.

1. One Direction (Series 7)
2. Jahmene Douglas (Series 9)
3. Olly Murs (Series 6)
4. Che Chesterman (Series 12)
5. Sam Bailey (Series 10)
6. Louisa Johnson (Series 12)
7. Fleur East (Series 11)
8. Nicholas McDonald (Series 10)
9. Katie Waissel (Series 7) constantly always being saved by the judges.
10. Frankie Cocozza (Series 8)

Basically acts that have nothing interesting to offer Musically.

JAnet Devlin when they made her do MM-bbbop

I like your list, saved me typing it out. I would add Little Mix just for the desperation to force their win.

Thanks.

I wasn't a big Little Mix fan either, but I did like their E.T performance which spared them for me.

Katie Waissel
Kitty Brucknell
Frankie Cocozza
Wagner
Jedward
Reggie and Bollie
Stevie Ritchie
Diana Vickers
Janet Devlin

Wagner Rylan, Chris Maloney

2. Rylan Clark
3. Christopher Maloney
4. District3
5. Union J

I'll leave it at that.

How could I have forgotten Lucifer Baloney? The most demonic creature to grace our screens

Has to be tamera foster , utter pointless act who was strangely saved after numerous piss poor performances . Mimed most parts of every song and still forgot her words more often than not . If she ever made it in the business could never ever perform live

Leon Jackson
Rylan
Wagner
Jedward
Frankie
Keira

Won't say any of the novelty acts considering they're there to serve a 'purpose' and Rylan and Wagner did it very well.

Overhyped, bland and boring acts are not my forte, nor are teeny bopper acts who are style and no substance

So

Sam Bailey
Nicholas McDonald
Jahmene Douglas
Sam Callahan
Misha B
Kye Sones
Max Stone
Nu Vibe
Ray Quinn
Eoghan Quigg
Lauren Platt
Frankie Cocozza

Lloyd Daniels - Flatter than Keira Knightley

TreyC - Nice arse but shouty voice, no wonder her record career flopped and ended up in theatre

Tamara "Don't forget the lyrics & don't forget to pay in the shop" Foster

Jedward - Lucie Jones was far more talented than those idiots

One Direction - designed for brainless teenage girls

Joe Mcelderry - Sounded like he had sucked on helium before each performance & was never going to be taken seriously as an artist after releasing a Miley Cyrus cover.

Same difference - That annoying call to vote hand signal !

She was signed by Syco, supposed to be releasing an album this year.

Chico, Katie Waisel, Katie Bruknel, Honey G, Frankie C..... I also disliked Louisa's singing, because it was try hard and soulless, though she does have a good voice and potential she may yet develop, and Rachel Hylton because she was often out of tune with poor technique, but she improved that after the season and has a good tone . I put Rachel and Louisa separate because , unlike the others, they do have talent, and I believe in credit where due. I'm sure I forgot some, but I'd rather focus on the good ones

In terms of the ones mentioned as bland I get that because everyone''s taste is different but in terms of the bad was - and I cannot 100% remember her so I may be quite wrong - Kitty Bucknell that bad. I thought she was out there but still reasonably talented. No?

So was zig and zag
