I don't think this is the same as 'which is your favourite contestant', because, from my own experience I've wanted people to win in the past + supported them, but if they had released a CD, I wouldn't actually buy it, or go see them live. Rhydian's an example of this, I thought he was incredible, but he wasn't my style of music.

So, out of the contestants this year, who's CD would you actually buy, who would you love to see live, or listen to if you turned on the radio?

Definately, definately, definately Lauras.

Laura and Dianas

Diana and Laura definetely and Alexandra too , depending on what kind of music she makes. Maybe Rachel as well.

None of the guys though , I like my male vocalists to be either indie , rock , alternative or soul. (and real soul , not the stuff you get on the X factor)

I agree with Diana, I adore her voice, I don't think I could ever get bored of her soulful style of singing.

JLS may be quite fun too, if they sorted out their vocals. Not really my cup of tea though.

Laura

Laura, Austin and JLS. For me, they would be the only ones worth buying.

Lauras..

i'd definitely buy diana's and laura's. i like alexandra too but i don't think her music would really be my cup of tea!

Laura
Diana
Rachel
Alexandra

Laura for sure.I really enjoyed her songs on Myspace-pity they had to go

Diana, Rachel and perhaps Shakira's as long as she cut out the whole half and half singing style thing with the language.

I might buy lauras to keep the cats away.

Laura and Diana.

Buy a cd from an x factor contestant............dont be silly.

Ditto.

Defo Dianas

Diana without a doubt

Dianas without doubt.

I think if they give Laura some good stuff and she really cuts down on the Belinda Belinda Belinda Jazz stuff, then I'd buy hers too.

Laura's or Diana's love them both but would prob buy alexandra's too i cannot believe how strong the girls are this year such a contrast from last year!!

Diana's...

Yeah, basically, I love her. I also think out of all of them she could do the best, along with Laura and Alexander. It should be these three girls in the finals!

But, it's Diana for me! Proved herself last night. Definitely need a new cool Indie rock n roll Queen - she's so much more talented than that dreary Kate Nash!

None, since I don't really buy the sort of music any of the contestants would produce. I listen to all sorts, but I only regularly buy rock, metal and alternative.

Rachel and Alexandra would be the most likely candidates. Diana is a possibility, but only if they managed to get a grip on that yodelling.

Austin and JLS.

Even though ive watched every X Factor like a crazy mad person, the only album ive actually bought from a contestant has been Leona's.

This year however I think there are quite a few id buy. Id buy Alexandra's if they sorta gave her music a Whitney/Toni Braxton vibe. Id buy Laura's 100% as I love her voice and Jazz. Id buy Ruth's, Rachels Girlbands also. Maybe id buy Diana's to as I love her voice but im just not keen on the indie route id know they would take with her.

Diana is the only one I would buy a CD of, last year I don't think there was anyone I would buy the CD of either even though I loved Same Difference and Hope in the context of the show.

Alexandra.
