Talk about stating the obvious Of course they won't be doing it for the people that don't like them why would they

And that post took me about 3 minutes. Not what I would call loads of time

Quite obviously the direction of the Steps and S-Club fan base.

I would love to see them do a variety show on TV, like the old Cilla Black shows on the 1960's.

A Same Difference Xmas Special would make my Christmas.

Why is it pathetic? People can dislike them as well as like them you know! And it's not exactly nasty no one has said they want them dead or anything



Where has anyone said they're fake? Fair enough they may be nice people, but that doesn't make a difference to whether people think they have talent or like their performances. Personally if I behaved the way they do in their performances, in real life I'd be embaressed.






IMO they wouldn't. Surely they aren't the most talented people the UK has to offer? If they won I would give up on the X Factor completely. I agree their performances are always well executed, but it's the things in their peformances, and the way they perform that make me dislike them.



I don't blame someone for saying they want to slap Stah how can you stand those facial expressions?!?

I really don't think they'll ever put on an amazing show outside Butlins, but you're entitled to you're opinion! Hopefully after the X Factor they'll disappear either to Butlins or become children's entertainers... I can't see them having hits in the charts especially when the novelty wears off.”


right so it's fair to say theyre having incest cos of the way they look at eachother. and what's weird about it? cos they get on so well and they give eachother a little smile to say 'well done keep it up'.. is that really creepy??!

yeah... people CAN dislike them... but starting an un-appreciation thread... have any SDfans done that towards rhydian?? i dont think so... and why go out of their way to make a thread like that.. is there really a need for it?.. fair enough if they just started up a thread expessing their opinion on why they dislike them but the way it was done was bad.


Ok... i'll face up to that.. that was my mistake as no one said they were fake but it was what was being implied by the 'all teeth' comment.

That's totally fair enough that you dislike them and think they're a novelty act.. we'll have to agree to disagree on that one! but at least you were polite and said you 'dislike' them... people were saying they hate them and i think hate is such a strong word tbh... and also to answer that about wanting to slap Sarah... erm.. no!.. it's never crossed my mind cos she's such a nice girl and is it a crime to be that happy and buzzing after a performance?? she loves being up there and that is horrible that people would want to do that! urgh.

It really is pure nasty saying you hate them.. hate is such a strong word i mean what have they ever done to you? and wanting to slap Sarah.. how mature!.. well you're intitled to your opinions but i hope they prove you wrong by soaring into that final and putting on an amazing show! ”

I am not a fan of Same Difference either. They are too cheesy and I really don't think their singing is anything spectacular (so is usually hidden with stupid dance routines and gimmicks )
They should be on Saturday morning Children's TV not Saturday Night TV.
I know Louis talks garbage, but he has got it right (for once) when it comes to these 2.
I am certain if they were not in Simons category, he would be slating them too.

I get the distinct feeling if they weren't in Simon's category, he'd have made remarks so devastating (but honest) by now they'd have gone out long since.

He sees they have potential to be a sort of British 'High School Musical' thing, - the reedy thin (and off key) voices are clearly no impediment to that, as they'd be re-worked so heavily during recording anyway. Sort of inverse Leonas - she's marketed on her phenomenal voice, they are in a market where they don't need to be able to sing. Sharon was right when she said they seemed like something dreamt up by Michael Jackson.

And is it just me, or do they remind anyone else of the creepy brother and sister duo in the original 'Poseidon Adventure'? Hopefully, the rather scary pair will end up doing the cruise liners - if they're lucky.

I dunno how much more of the cutesy stamping up and down with excitement thing I can take. Simon himself said they were scary when he first met them - interesting how that's forgotten now he has to champion them.

Was interested to see they did the clubs before they got on the show as my dad worked the clubs for many years. They were the sort of act we'd turn to eachother and say *Shouldn't book them again*.

but could you imagine a life without cheese?

at the moment they're probably a double gloucester (hard but creamy and marginally sweet), but people are reacting as though they're a dairylea cheese slice.

His voice is passable - but only that. Hers is a mixture of loud squawking and fingernails down a blackboard. It was quite a relief she was only given a couple of solo lines on ADWD.

They also had A LOT of backing vocals last night - so much so that I wasn't sure I could hear their voices at all during WMUBYGG and anyway, I would have thought it would be nigh on impossible to sing properly at a high energy level with all the prancing, jumping up and down on beds, dancing with a floor full of wee willie winkies.

I do post on there thank you and i wasn't going to bother replying in this one until i saw the part about wanting to slap Sarah.. i really don't find that fair at all, she's she's been through enough as it is... actually you know what... have your un-appreciation thread... haha it's not even worth replying cos it really is quite silly it's obviously what they want .

Thanks for keeping it bumped to the top of the discussion board for more non SD fans to add to!

I do agree with you that it is a bit harsh to say you want to slap Sarah. I am only participating in this thread as I do not like SD - I'm sure they are lovely people, I just don't like their performances.

She has a very odd jawline like Cerys Matthews. Very angular. I could just about put up with them though if it weren't for all the skipping, facial expresions, puppy dog eyes and doing the "phone for us" signs. LOL how naff just like them
I am just waiting on them doing Bucks Fizz "Making Your Mind Up"

Well for me their expressions to each other and in general just are weird, and the smiles are creepy. That's just the way me and other see it.

I agree hate is too strong a word for them... after all they are only a cheesy X Factor act.

The happiness isn't a crime, it's just I'm sure Rydian etc are happy but they don't do that pathetic 'vote for me!' face after every performance and have all the OTT expressions, skipping etc I just find it too much.

Anyway nice to have a civilised discussion with you, we'll have to just agree to disagree as I'm sure you'll never dislike them and I'm never going to like them.

No, but he still practically begged. Even Dermot said "now it's my time to talk".

Rumour has it on the "appreciation" thread that they will be singing *Land of Make Believe". I can just see them murdering this song, swaying from side to side with those big cheesy grins euchhhhhh
