Having looked at all the odds polls etc I think that only three acts could win Diana, Laura plus one of the rest. I think Simon wants Diana or Laura to win and up to this week I thought it was Laura but now I think it is Diana. I think the hint that he made to Laura in code about her weight was either to get her to loose weight or to let others know that he favours Diana.

There are 3 or 4 who COULD win

But I think Simon already has his chosen winner

That girl does look quite chunky, and I don't see why they can't lose some weight and tone up the body.

Either Diana or Laura will win but I really hope it's between JLS and Ruth.

Diana, Laura, Eoghan

Think it'll be one of them. But then I thought it'd be Austin so what do I know.

Laura and Diana seem to be the one's which everyone loves; apart from me I like Diana but not Laura. I hope the one one that no one expects to get to the final gets there, Alexandra

I think Eoghan could win (although I really don't think he should).

I think Laura and Diana could both win.

I think Alex should be in the running and could be in the final but I don't think she'll win. Same with Ruth.

I can't see Daniel or Rachel winning, although I do like Rachel a lot.

I can see JLS doing well and getting fairly far but not winning. Groups never do, do they?

I think she looks great however I agree that if she lost a little weight she would look even better and I hate saying that however that is way that the Simon wants her.

Why should she conform? If she is happy with the way she is then she should just be!!

She's a fantastic singer with talent beyond all the others in this season, her weight shouldn't matter! She's attractive in a quirky way!

I agree but Simon has put a dig in which is either to help her or harm her I am not sure which one.

Laura isn't chunky. She's curvy. And you don't have to be stick thin to be pretty. She's got a really beautiful face. And good boobs!

Isn't curvy just a polite way of saying someone is overweight?

Not even nearly! Curvy is a good thing. Hips and a chest, some flesh on ones bones is a good thing. Laura isn't overweight at all. Her website show pictures where she is thinner, sure, so obviously she has gained some weight but not to the point where I think she should be called overweight or anything.

Laura isn't overweight. But I suppose that depends on your point of view. I guess some people might prefer to see androgynous/skeletal women and would cite that as the ideal, but for me that isn't womanly, each to their own though. Standards of female beauty are totally skewed in favour of skeletal model types, which is totally unrealistic for most women. I think Laura is probably not heavier than Ruth but she carries her weight differently.

It's interesting actually because I happened to be visiting my mother this week and watched with her. She didn't hear Simon's comments but having watched Laura and Ruth, she commented that it's so nice to see curvier women doing well and looking beautiful.

As a woman, I can't understand why some women take it as an offence when their weight is mentioned or hinted at. Don't be offended, do something about it. Cut out the PC "Take me as I am" because it isn't going to happen.

Laura, Rachel and Ruth are not curvy. Alexandra is curvy. Diana is slim. Ruth is tubby, Rachel is chunky, Laura is fat. Let's be honest which is what political correctness should be about.

Having said that, Laura has a good voice which is what this competition should be about. Sadly for Laura, so does Alexandra and she has the looks and personality to add to that.

Laura is not fat do you know what size she is ? You could not make it up.
