Ashley is amazingly talented and has the whole package: good voice, looks, charm, charisma, good dress sense and funky hair. NO WAY should have gone over Dionne or Kerry, whose performances were like watching paint dry. And as for the Mcdonald losers, when will people stop voting for them?!?! The biggest load of crap I have EVER had to endure for 2 minutes, which is way too long as it is

Ashley is brilliant and should stay to the end (along with Ben who is also wonderful)

We're 3 weeks into this competition and I've yet to hear Ashley sing a note in tune, so he won't be getting my vote

Ah, but you know it's not him singing out of key it's us hearing out of tune...and of course there's a "y" in the days and it's his time of the month......

erm ... I can't help thinking I'd like to hear Ashley's recorded voice (y'know after several takes and all that).

He has an interesting quality to his voice but hits incredibly flat notes quite often.

I know 'doing it live' is regarded as more 'authentic' and all that but I honestly believe detractors are throwing the baby out with the bathwater (yes, I know it's a live singing competition and, therefore, he may not suitable perhaps to win it but singing live is only one aspect of a musical carrer and often less important than studio recordings) - when he's good, he's very good :

I repeat, there's something distinctive about his voice that makes it interesting.

And here was me trying to forensically dissect the nature of his performance qualities in a judicious and rational manner (after several drinks, natch ).

This is quite scarey Praise for someone that cannot be bothered to perform correctly and still then promise your vote the next week, it just sums up one of the problems this show has to iron out somehow, incorect voting practises

Gutted tonight, I was certain that Sideshow Bob was on his way and not a minute too soon. Thought Simon was giving Louie a broad hint to get rid, bet this guy (Ashley) is a nightmare to work with, he comes across as totally unprofessional.

Obviously you have very interesting paint because how you could rate Ashley before Dionne astounds me.

Its a singign compettion and he fluffed his lines. He is an arrogant baffoon who has been given far too mch credit by an even bigger baffoon called Simon

I don't think it matters that he hits a few bum notes at times, when he hits the right notes like he did towards the end of the song he's amazing. He seems to have a gift for pulling something out of the bag at the last minute that makes you forgive him for not being up to scratch for the whole song.

I think a lot of people probably thought he was safe after last weeks performance and didn't bother to vote.

It wouldn't if he sang a few in tune too, but that seems less likely each week

Is that good dress sense?

I wish my gran was still alive, she'd be delighted to know the twin-set & pearls look, that she sported daily, was the height of fashion.

Actually, now that I think about it; before she had her weekly 'set and colour' her hair would look like a burst couch, just like Ashley's and her singing voice was just as bad. I think my gran is Ashley reincarnated.
