I take it you're a fan of J-Hud?
So are you telling me my parents are not really into music? Because my dad loves singers like Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin but wouldn't know who J-Hud is. Just because you know who she is, doesn't mean half the UK population will too. |

If people in the UK don't know who Jennifer Hudson is then they are not really into music IMO.

Everyone knows who the gorgeous Jennifer Hudson, she was in the Nightmare Girls thingy that made those awful wrist slitting dirges "I'm telling you" & "One Night only", which have been done too many times on the X Factor.
But needless to say some people like her & she will be a bit of eyecandy on the voice. |

My days. I'm into music. I make music and play two instruments. Jennifer Hudson isn't on my radar at all. I know that one song she did. She seems like a good singer. But I don't know a single mate who would know who her, the majority of whom are musicians themselves. Next you'll be saying you're not a fan of music if you don't know Fleur. It just gets more and more insane every single post.

I’m one of those who did bother, purposely. I wasn’t prepared to watch a show full of filler. I may catch up on the songs themselves today. That being said I just watched the Matt, Nicole duet which was amazing. She made Matt look ordinary.

Fair enough if you are not really aware who she is, but she has sold millions of albums, and has a huge following across the world.

I think you're assuming that people are quite preoccupied with popular music. I do know some which is mostly from The X Factor. But there's an entire scene of music that I mostly listen and to and most of mates do where Jennifer Hudson just doesn't come up. But they're deeply passionate about music. This obsession with sales is some bizarre nonsense that I've only seen on here. It's like with super lame diva competition. Why would anyone care? Just love what you love for what it is.

Spotlight was an absolute tune that was played everywhere and she's never hit the musical heights since.
These days Jenifer is better known as an actress than a singer and her material hasn't been anything to write home about. Looking forward to seeing her onTheVoice though and think her series of American Idol had the best talent on a tv karaoke contest ever |

I can only agree, It's all over for SYCO and their motley crew.

Last nights X Factor got about a million viewers in Finland. Which is pretty good since Finland has just 5,4 million people.

How low must the ratings fall before they call it a day

Not surprising really with the poor standard of the finalist.

Ratings are deceptive in the world of catch up and recording live TV.
Not great numbers by any means but I'd say the total figure would at least be closer to 7-8 million Strictly/I'm A Celeb/Bake Off/Planet Earth still own their ass though Quote:

Not much competition in other channels at 10pm in Finland so that explains part of the high viewership, but it is still a respectable number. For a comparison a Voice of Finland in last spring got about 1,3 million viewers at best.

Shocked by high the ratings are in Finland, considering it is on so late. Maybe the X Factor Tour should be heading to Helsinki?

That means that the winner is being chosen by the same viewers who have watching all along, not drop-ins who only watch the final.

For how many weeks have they been showing it live in Finland.
I assume they leave it undubbed with Finnish subtitles Only semifinal and final were shown live. Rest of the series was shown on two weeks delay. |

The ratings in Finland are impressive but at the end of the day, ITV won't care much. It's not like they get any advertising revenue from the Finnish audience.

Its surely reaching a point where the budget will be cut, they can't keep laying out millions for the judges for starters when the 5million or so viewers that are left are pretty loyal and would probably tune in for a 'cheaper' panel of judges anyway.
Personally I don't think the show has ever fully recovered from Simon, Cheryl and Dannii all leaving the show after its most successful series ever. In 2010 One Direction, Matt Cardle, Rebecca Ferguson & Cher Lloyd performed with Rihanna, Christina Aguilera, Will.I.AM and Robbie Williams to an average audience of almost 18million...although the audience was always going to dip in the catch-up/streaming era, it took a massive fall in one go and its been downhill ever since. |
