Since the advent of shows such as The X Factor, Pop Idol, Fame Academy, etc., what cliches and catchphrases have been created.

Here's a few I've noticed:

"You made that song your own."
"You owned the stage tonight."
"The camera loves you."


and of course, the one that is becoming a classic of this series of The X Factor ...

"He didn't deserve to go tonight."

Others?

'Best performance of the night so far'

Soon they're gonna start using that on the first act.

Judge to contestant ... if you come back next week I would like to see you (dance more/not dance so much/a slow ballad/a rockier number - deletate as appropriate!)
What the judge means .. voting audience do us all a favour and let us send this one home!

'That was a very brave performance

Normally said by a judge when their act gives a poor performance.


'Im astounded!'

Normally said by Simon at the auditions, when he wants to make the auditionees sweat a bit. Because it could mean either very good or very bad, normally bad though.

Thats 'Honest' Simon of course

"you absolutely deserve to be here"

"I'm so pleased I put you through"

"I really want to be here"

*yawn*

but my pet hate of everything isnt actually words... its that thing the contestants do when Kate is sending them off stage.. where they make a shape of a phone with their hand and hold it to their ear and gurn into the camera.

Sad and desperate.

Most annoying one (mostly from Louis, no surprise there) is "But he/she/they really want it."

Because that's what it's all about isn't it? If everyone who really wanted a number 1 record got a number 1 record, we'd have to have 10 number 1s every week.

ALSO MUCH OVER-USED (every 5.2 seconds) FROM LOUIS:

They/he/she is an IRISH band/act form IRELAND!

I love differences in all people, but if you keep sticking that difference up my rear end 24/7, it becomes more than a tad anoying!
