Now don't get me wrong I do like Cheryl as a judge, but tonight I couldn't help but think Kimberley would be more suited to the role, and perhaps they chose the wrong member ...

I disagree.

"He's likeable. People would like him" as she said on tonight's show.
Oh deary me, she clearly wasn't interested tonight. Neither her or Cheryl (and maybe Dannii) have little qualification to 'mentor'.

So you do think they would make good mentors?

I always thought Kimberley was the one with the short blonde hair!

I think Blue Peter could make a better judge.... with some yoghurt cartons and sticky backed plastic.

No .... I love both Kimberley and Cheryl ..... but I do honestly believe, Emma Bunton would be 100% better as a judge than cold fish Dannii Minogue

I laughed at that comment from Kimberley too along with the 'its either a yes or a no' comment she said when her and Cheryl were sat making their final choices!
I agree Kimberley seemed disinterested. I dont particularly like Sarah Harding but I think she would have been a better asset for Cherly tonight.

Emma Bunton seemed good and I cant help thinking that she has been drafted in by Simon Cowell (with little connection with Danni) as a possible replacement for Danni next year - maybe???

I like Kimberley as she is damned fine hot totty, but she came across a bit clueless in tonight's episode.

All she could talk about was how it was for her and how she felt when going through the same process, but insincerely. She doesn't really have a nice warm friendly tone; whereas Cheryl does.

Cheryl has so far, IMO, been a fantastic judge.

Based on how little Kimberly said (and what she did wasn't very constructive IMO), I don't know how you could think she'd be better than Cheryl OP?

Kimberly looked like a bulldog chewing a wasp. Completely bored and not wanting to be there.

She didn't say or do anything remarkable.

How can you base this idea on having seen Kimberley for a few minutes during a one and a half hour programme? No....just leave Cheryl there for now.

Anyway, I think it's during the live shows you see the real talent the judges may or may not have.

I don't think Kimberley did anything to suggest she would have made a good judge.

But I do think Emma Bunton proved she could have been a great judge and mentor. It's a shame she was probably overlooked when the position first came up. I think she would have suited the format more than Cheryl.

I like Kimberley, I like all the Girls Aloud girls, they are all down to earth, I thought she did very well.

But that prat Louis had from Craplife, he was useless.

That's Sarah

oh god dont get me started on shane filan

mr up so far louis arsehe cant see anymore

did u see his face when i think the boy band (sorry cant remmber the name) was performing he looked like he tutted at one point

anyone can sing better than westlife even people on audtions wot woiuld he know

anyway back to the point i think cheryls pretty good she knows exactly how they are feeling weve seen her do it herself and she can really help them

ive gone off dannii this year she just looks bored now

get rid of her and louis i say

I do love Kimba, but like someone else quoted: "She's likable...like, people would like her." Yeah, kinda the definition...! Bless her though.

I thought Emma was dreadful and what they showed were actually her better moments.

Kimberly was there for Cheryl perhaps she felt awkward because all of them are better singers than Girls Aloud, and she didn't want the responsibility but it isn't just about the singing, and they are in a band so not all members have to be great singers like soloists. It is unfair the way they are repeatedly judged and accused of not being able to sing. They make the best of what they have and they have improved a lot. They shouldn't feel intimidated because it is about the whole experience not just the fact that you have a great voice. Your image personality and experience counts, which is why Cheryl should feel no way being a judge in this competition. Also she is quite endearing at times and she seems to care which is what is needed. Kimberly was very much on the fence. It is not easy for Cheryl as they are all good in their own way.

Oh I screwed up this thread I meant to put '' on the end, I think she was so dull and really not interested in the contestants at all and didn't seem bothered about putting her opinion across ... the same goes for Shayne. The only ones who seemed genuinely interested in the contestants were Emma & Sinitta.

I think Nadine should have joined Cheryl and Mark should have joined Louis

Cheryl probably chose Kimberley as, out of all of Girls Aloud, the two of them are very, very close.
I do think Sarah, or maybe even Nicola, would've been better though.

haha

I couldn't stick listening to Kim's dull tones on the show. The less they show of her the better!
