Seriously, do you not Louie and Sharon were patronising Justin(e)? If he had been a woman he would not have got through! Good luck anyway.

No offence to Justin(e), who seems to be posting on the boards. But you'd have to say he was put through for the humour entertainment value over the his singing abilities

So what is he gonna wear?

Think he should get waxed & plucked + an all over tan would be worthwhile.
Didn't see enough of his/her shape to think about an outfit.

Agree on that point ... and I do think he has a lot of fun - but -

Does he come across as having the X factor on an international singing level?

Can you compare him with Bowie / Celine Dion etc?

The x factor has to take into account much more than singing talent alone..
It is at the end of it all not a singing comp as a such but a TV programme that shows acts who sing.

but i think it ruins the whole concept when you have acts going through that can't actually sing! I thought the X factor was about finding raw talent.

Its a tv show
TV show needs high ratings and the more conflict and so on they can generate at this stage the better.

I'm with you on this one anna ...

I think this year, that the show needs some real talent in order to make it credible .... (not watching judges argue) but to make it watchable next year too ... to make it actually have a point, make it worth watching .....

The conflict aspects puts me off. Watching the judges be vindictive and really pathetic to each other and the contestants (I'm thinking more of Sharon and Louis here) does not make this show watchable

Quite the opposite.

I'm talking about TALENT .... real talent

Somebody who can and will reinvent themselves to stay in the market for many, many years

but then again ... as I posted elsewhere, todays music market is like throwaway talent ....

Here today - gone tomorrow .... no staying power

Its about international stardom ... somebody who can and does have that talent - If you cannot understand using Bowie as an example of international talent ... that only really highlights the essence of lack of real British talent

Haha, nice riposte. Good luck, you're certainly an interesting character, not the most stereotypical dairy farmer in the world

Well done justin(e) for getting throught to boot camp!

Sorry to be nosey but is that the first time you have done drag? You seemed very natural.

I think you would do well in the gay scene doing drag if thats what you want.

Who was your favourite judge?
