There's a couple of threads already but I think we need an official appreciation one, where we can chat about/with and follow the progress of Justin[e].

Like him or not, you have to admit he is brilliant entertainment, and I think he could have a great career out of being Justine!

Justin[e] told me he's gonna take some time out to do a photo-shoot, so hopefully all his fans will be able to request autographs soon

So, you fabulous darlings Let the appreciation begin

I thought it was great that he had the guts to go back the next day and do what was only jokingly suggested and to get through the second time was great. I'm sure he will have some sort of career in the limelight.

I'll sign up.

It was great television and it's nice to see one of our own in the running.

You're no Aretha mate but I'll cheer for you.

I personally saw nothing wrong with his voice and I thought it was better than some of the others who got put through..

Is he usually a drag queen though?

as soon as I saw Justins transformation into Justin[e] I thought he did it too well and had done it many times before ( that is the switch from male to female)......he reminded me a lot of John Inman (Are you being served) when he first hit our screens back in 1972...........good con Justin/[e] hope you make plenty of money out of it.

Hi i have done drag years ago at christmas and parties etc.Ive never really had the opportunity to or really the inclination since.I tell a lie will at acting college a couple of years ago [i trained as a tv/film actor when i was 48] in did up in drag just for a disco scene we did in a film at college.Ive got other characters ive made up but not performed in costume 93 yr old Dennis Moleturd,5 yr old PeeWee and 63yr old daughter of Dennis, Hilda Monks.Application of make up we learned at college.Mannerisms im quite good at picking up,we used to go down to Stratford market in east London and watch people andcome back and have to stay in character for at least an hour.Im NOT a tranvestite as im not turned on sexually by JUSTIN[E] but i do like being another person and i like bringing out the obvious femininity i have,I do like wearing stillettoes and dresses ,so what .Ill obviously have to wear them alot now lol lol lol luv JUSTIN[E] XXXXXXX

Hey Justine[e]

Sorry if I gave you the impression that I was implying you were a transvestite there was no offence intended.....what I was really trying to say was you had obviously done Female impersonations before........I enjoyed both your performances on Saturday and truely believe there is a market out there for you as a Female impersonator after all Paul O'grady does not do Lilly anymore and Danny La Rue is too old................I hope you get the opportunity and make the most out of the void they have left

Justin(e) - no offence but I don't think you have the "X-Factor". However I do think you have a very good future on the Club Circuit and on TV.

I shall be following your progress and rooting for you. If you ever get to perform at "Caberet" in Nottingham - i'll be there to watch you

If we are following the progress, then it shouldn't last to long then.
Look, I know he posts on here and he seems a perfectly nice guy and all that...and he has a lot more courage than I would ever have so hats of to him but, X Factor? Come on, get real. He was put through to the next round based on a 'joke' factor not because he has a chance of winning the program/competition which surely is what its all about. I am not trying to burst his bubble or anything, in fact I really wish him luck but with regards to tthe X factor, he should have gone home at the same time as all of the other no hopers.

Black rain what can i say.Do you read some of the other posts i put on here.Im a farmer but also trained as an actor only a couple of years ago.I wanted exposure so i applied to come on X FACTOR .I considered i had X FACTOR personality [IM NOW 75% THERE] ide made an album in 1987 and a single in 1995 which ill try and get REreleased .What does it matter what i sound like live its what you sound like on vinylthat matters ,thats whats on the radio etc.Even if i did more comedy recordings you could still class me as a recording artist but catering for a specific market.I like people like you to give you honest opinion except being classed as a no hoper does hurt slightly. All the best JUSTIN[E] X

Sorry to offend and yes on reflection it was the wrong choice of words. I meant no hoper in regard to winning the program, not in regard to being succesful in your chosen field. Apologies again. I admit, i do not read all of the posts in these forums as I tend to get lost as to what i have read and what i have missed so when you read my post, it was based purely on my own feelings to your chances within the program and not on your past history.
Good luck to you in your chosen path.

Hello fans ,I see im on the official ITV .COM 'X FACTOR ' site now advertising my pilot programme that fellow X FACTOR contestant Jerry Coady [unicorn man] and myself are writing.My aim obviously is for success for both of us in the industry but I want to have guests on the programme hopefully people i liked who didnt get through.As a lot of you complain about rejected artists[and i wholly agree with you in most cases] I want to give them a second chance but with musical backing hair/make up the full works.To perform in a professional enviroment. I do need your backing on this ,and your comments are greatly received even the negative ones lol lol
best wishes JUSTIN[E] XX

Theres a page on Justin[e] in the Daily Mirror today if anyones interested

It's pretty un-biased and puts him in a good light, but it says the whole thing was a publicity stunt.
Justin[e] agrees that he wanted publicity but it wasn't a set up of any kind

For those of you who have read the Daily Mirror article about me today.I didnt set it up with the X FACTOR people as implied.Ive written numerous times on here that i went on to further my acting career with some tv exposure but their certainly was no collusion before hand.Ive cetainly made no money out of it.When you put the price of the drag clothes travelling ,hotels ,trains and all other costs involved it comes in my case to over 1200 quid.Im still milking cows to pay the bills.As a change of direction I see they are auctioning some of the late Richard Whitely clothes for charity I milk cows twice a week for a friend whose farm is next to his home[now there was a real gentleman].Its for a cancer charity well worth bidding for i think.Hope everybody is doing well and im looking forward to next weeks show especially Dorothy from Stockport.
All the best JUSTIN[E] XX
