I think good on you Chico!! Let the guy have his 5 minutes of fame I think he deserves it.”
I agree with you. You really would think from all the fuss some posters are making on here that Chico was some kind of threat to their 'faves.' In truth all Chico is doing is putting a bit of life into what would be an otherwise rather staid show.
I really don't know why anyone should begrudge him the chance to appear. I do know that the XFactor wouldn't be getting the amount of publicity it has this series, if he wasn't in it!
Everyone is entitled to like whosoever they choose in the XFactor, likewise they are also entitled to criticise, what I do think pointless are the 'clever ones' who look down on pure entertainment as the lowest life form.
Thank God there are at least some people who want to smile and enjoy watching someone who gets out there and entertains! Actually, as Chico seems to get enough votes to keep him in, it might be quite a few people!!
