 |  By  |  2 comments
Find out what Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh, Dannii Minogue and Cheryl Cole had to say about the last four remaining acts on The X Factor's live final tonight.



Matt Cardle - 'Here With Me'

Louis: "Matt, you're in the final because you deserve to be in the final. Consistently good. You're an ordinary guy with an extraordinary voice. I'm dying to hear your new album. You're a born recording artist. You have to be in the final tomorrow night."

Cheryl: "I always knew you'd be on that stage, it was a great song choice, great performance."

Simon: "You're still not feeling great, but that was a fantastic performance, a fantastic choice of song. It was on the money. The very first time we met you, we knew you're a great, honest guy. You deliver every week, you take chances. I hope we see you tomorrow night."

Dannii: "I just want to say thank you for all the work you've done over the last weeks. No-one has ever worked harder on The X Factor and I want to say vote for Matt."



Rebecca Ferguson - 'Just Like A Star'

Louis: "Rebecca, there's something I want to say - I believe in you so much, as a person, as a role model, as a recording artist. You're one of the nicest people we've ever had on The X Factor, and you're just the same off stage as you are on stage. I want everybody in Liverpool to lift their phones and vote for Rebecca."

Dannii: "You're an absolute beauty, you definitely deserve to be in final. I hope this show has given you a beginning, and is the start of your confidence building. You really deserve this."

Simon: "Can I just say you look absolutely beautiful. You used the word magical in your film and that performance was magical. There's something about you. You've done it your own way from beginning to end. You are one of the nicest contestants we've ever had on this show. You represent Liverpool brilliantly - actually you represent the whole country. Most of all, you have one heck of a recording voice. I think you would be a fantastic winner."

Cheryl: "I find it hard to have the words for what an amazing girl you are. I respect your dignity, your class and I really look forward to your future."



One Direction - 'Your Song'

Louis: "You're five guys, all best friends. I've never seen a band cause so much hysteria so early in their career. I want everyone in Ireland to vote for Niall."

Dannii: "You were thrown together as a band and you've bonded so well. You deserve to be here. I'd love to see you in tomorrow's final."

Cheryl: "I have thoroughly enjoyed seeing you guys have the most amount of fun. I hope to be seeing you guys on that stage tomorrow night."

Simon: "Can I just say after hearing the first two performances that were so good, my heart was sinking. Then you got on stage, and you've got to remember you're only 16, 17 years old. You deserve to be there as individual singers. You gave it 1,000%. It's an absolute pleasure working with you and I hope people pick up the phone. You really deserve to be there."



Cher Lloyd - 'The Clapping Song'/'Get Ur Freak On'

Louis: "Cher, you're in the final against all odds - you made it. Love the song choice. I thought Brian Friedman did a brilliant job with the staging. You're in the final - who'd have thought it?"

Dannii: "Your music is definitely niche, not something we've ever had on The X Factor before. It's an incredible spring board for you. It's what you do with it now and how you approach your future."

Simon: "Using one of Cheryl's expressions, I'm going to say you smashed that. I'm happy that we put you though. You're fearless, you're my favourite brat with a heart of gold. I'm genuinely happy you're here tonight; in terms of originality, energy, my favourite performances of yours so far."

Cheryl: "I saw something in you the second you walked in that first audition. You've stayed true to that style, and I hope to see you there tomorrow smashing it."
