The complaints to Offcom will be huge because it was so obvious that he manipulated the situation for the sake of the ratings. Nasty, cruel, egotistical sod.
But you're forgetting one thing, Simon can sign up any act he wants, so Lucie doesn't necessarily lose out in the long term.

Next year we will al still remember the twins but I doubt if anyone will be talking about any of the so-called singers.

This year's crop has been pretty naff - no one one with any genuine sex appeal charisma and charm or great singing talent. Just a bunch of mediocre desperados. imo.

The publicity surrounding the twins has been massive - they have boosted the viewing figures and kept all of us talking about them.

Just looking at the remaining talentless wonders on ITV2 ....... they are the most bunch ever, apart from Jedward.


I am forgetting lovely Joe who can actually sing .....he must win now.

I think John & Edward are the only ones that will have any success from the show.

The irony is that Louis said he thought Lucie would be the last girl standing, and then she goes out to his act.

I would be sad to see Jedward go out to any of the ones remaining, as this year's lot are not worthy winners.

I must say, the Xtra Factor/Holly really does a great job of making Jedward feel like shit.

Well I sent him my phone number and he hasn't called me!

Maybe it was the naked pictures of me and a cucumber that I sent along with it?

None of the other contestants who survive the "sing off" each week are made to feel so guilty for still being there. Hmmmm

Olly has an old fashioned look about him, and hub said he looks like a Bank Manager, and could be what he wears gives off that aura. Think he ought to change his hair style to something flashy.

I do love how she keeps jibing at everyone for saying we should be raping. I have this great respect for Danni!

Exactly. It is Lloyd that he wanted rid of tonight. Script didnt go to plan though.

Agreed. LLoyd was so dreadful that he must have fully expected him to be in the sing off

I think its worth pointing out that JLS were in the bottom two last year, and WERE SAVED by the judges, and rightly so.

Because they don't release the voting figures fans think their favourites are safe, we have no idea of knowing our favourites are at risk, hence the lack of votes for Lucie tonight.

Just remember, none of them are safe, and tonight was a joke. My advice is not to vote for J&E as that would be going against everything we believe in. Instead boycott the vote for all Simon's acts, he deserves what is coming!!
