Boycott X Factor This Coming Saturday

Ok so who thinks that Lucie Jones was robbed???? Those irish jerks had backing singers drowning out the fact that they couldn't sing any way and loads of production to take your mind away from the fact that they are jumpin around like they just shat themselves!!

Lucie going at this stage shows what many people knew for years-the music industry is no longer after people who can sing-it's instead after bigheads who can sell themselves in the press better.

DONT WATCH X FACTOR THIS WEEK IN PROTEST!!!!
Oh-by the way-I put a tenner on Luice Winning the comp!

Can't you understand, Lucie was voted into the sing off and got the least votes. Its simple why are you so angry? it was a fair decision. The public voted her out.

Lucie got the least votes, so not many people liked her. She was hardly robbed, it wasn't a fix, it was THE PUBLIC'S FAULT. Stop being pathetic.

I thought it was the right decision, I'd rather see the twins than Lucie.

No they didn't, I would have voted for Lucie and even if in the bottom two I felt she would have been safe as one of the best singers in the competition.

Now we know that Simon is playing a game to get rid of the opposition and we need to have two Simon acts in the bottom next week.

Because I feel that "thanks to simon" the public now think this is who can sell themselves best in the press competition. Not who can sing the best. You can't honestly believe those 2 half wits can sing can you??

Yep I don't care what Simon says, he let it go to public vote knowing full well the boys would get through, he just did it because Lucie was a real threat to his boys.

I may watch the show but I'll never give Simon a cent after all its his show & he get most of the money.

How many years has Xfactor been going & look at the only 2 half decent acts to come out of it, Liona & JLS and Simon just gets richer.

If they're gonna send it to deadlock every week they might as well not bother, if there had been no sing off and Lucie had gone I doubt people would've been as angry.

Lucie may have got the least votes but Simon has made idiots of the British public. He is using the British public to get what he wants..higher ratings. If you dont mind being a sheep then fine but i'm switching off.

No wonder the music industry is in such a poor state these days if people writing in these forums SERIOUSLY think Jedward can sing. Tonight was like having Rolant rat up against Whitney Houston!!!!

Simon wasn't getting rid of opposition (the public did).

He was giving the act which gets people talking about the show a chance to stay.

Sorry - Lucie is no Whitney Houston.

Cheryl Cole has a no 1 album and single and she can't sing live.

It's a singing contest and it's not pathetic to think a better singer should have stayed. Yes she was in the bottom two but what's the point of a sing off to save the better singer if it's going to public vote anyway?

Seriously this show is turning into cbeebies.

The X Factor is just Big Brother or I'm A Celebrity with songs in it. The most 'popular' or 'infamous' acts will reign supreme - I don't see why people are even bothering to enter the show, are they that desperate for fame? For every Leona you'll get more Steve brooksteins, I can't see it is worth it personally.

i think lucie is as good as whitney she can hit those high notes just as well. it just prooves that this competition isn't about singing anymore its about who puts on the best entertainment but i do think that when the weaker singers come on that the backing track seems to be louder so you can hardly hear how bad they are. the final record that lucie sang was fantastic not many people have a voice like that. hopefully she may come back in a couple of years time with a recording contract.

No but it shows the judges they have to take this kind of thing seriously when people are paying to vote, only for the judges to treat it like a game.
