There is no denying that Leona has talent, but Simon is actually starting to freak me out with his obsession over her. It's almost as if he has forgotten he has two other acts! Hr is actually starting to get on my bl**dy nerves and I wish he would put his tongue back in his mouth and stop drooling, its very uncomfortable to watch!

To be honest, it's decently obvious that all three have already decided that she's the winner, and it's a matter of building her up as such.

When Simon looks at Leona, he (mainly) sees pound signs, she is his only act with any potential to win him the competition, and become a successful recording artist. I don't doubt that he gives her extra attention, but its hardly surprising, why would he want to waste time on acts likely to go soon like Nikitta. Sharon clearly prefers Ben, and Louis clearly prefers Eton Road, The MacDonalds are just part of him having a laugh.

When he stands up and starts clapping after every performance it's really annoying. No matter how good any of the other acts are he doesn't do the same. Notice how he introduced Leona as "Fantastic and incredible Leona" (something like that) and Nikitta was just introduced as "Nikitta".
He needs to be careful because it might actually put people off her

Leona is the only act that will possibly get him to the finals, so i think thats why he's doing it. I do actually feel for Leona because of it, she probably feels uncomfortable with all the hype (well i know i would) and secondly i imagine it puts a lot of pressure on her.

he also said leona was a role model for young girl i beg to differ and think nikitta is a far better role model.

People it's called money!

He's obsessed because because he's so glad that his show discovered her... and all he can hear is KER-CHING!!!!!!!!!!!!

He knows she has potential to be big worldwide. It's a bit of a shame for the other artists in his group but oh well. Next time!

Leona looks very similar to Simon's girlfriend (or ex-girlfriend?), but a lot younger. Maybe those are the looks Simon goes for.

Never noticed him do this until tonight - so he's done it before? Thought he made himself look stupid trying to push Sharon and Louis into standing up to applaud her! So glad they didn't.

It's pretty disgusting in my opinion the way he treats his other acts and raves about Leona. I reckon if Nikkita had sung 'sorry seems to be the hardest word', she would have sung Leona under the table, as her voice is way more powerful and has a much nicer tone to it. I can't express enough how overrated I think Leona is. Not to mention that Nikkita is, in my opinion way prettier!

Yes if I remember correctly he did it last week as well and it was just as cringeworthy then as it was this week
