Iva Baltakova What were you thinking kicking out so many good singers like Gift, Sam, Ryan and leaving that stupid, BAD sorry excuse of a performer "Honey G" in the show?You people make a joke out of this show and all the good singers who try for it. Huge huge huge huge disappointment.

Irishchatter I remember when I was 14 years old in 2009 and started to like watching X Factor because there was mainly nothing on the telly and basically, I thought it was cool then. I have to say, the people getting involved on the show to sing their hearts out and thinking they will be future singers, is just ridiculous. Sure after the winners and losers appear on the show, they disappear and never to be heard again until the next year they were on the show.I haven't heard nearly Leona Lewis,Shayne Ward, Leon Jackson, Joe McElderry, Alexandra Burke, James Arthur, Matt Cardle or Sam Bailey do anything recently with their music. They would've been successful for themselves even more if they got their thinking caps on and just show off their music. Its just a disgrace really, Simon Cowell should really check on them more seriously. No wonder hes getting more money then them, hes doing this bloody show by getting his face fixed with botox among the other judges being his followers.I'm glad I stop watching it, it does suck you right in watching it and it also wastes your times when watching it a few months!

jayjaymadigan In the dark days of 2004, England was hungry for another singing competition, and from the bowels of hell, The X Factor was conceived, if you ever wanted to see a bigger bunch of talentless, narcissistic, brain dead bunch of no hoper's then look no further, every year is worse than the last, terrible singing, horrible bickering judges, a disgusting crowd who all start screaming abuse as soon as someone says one bad thing about an act they like it is perfect car crash television for the brain dead masses who have nothing better to do on a Saturday night September through to December just in time for the dreaded Christmas number one, if you want compelling, intelligent entertainment, well you're likely to find it on DisneyKids than you are on ITV on a Saturday night. Utter RUBBISH!

sglrml I simply don't understand how anyone could possibly find this show in any way successful. How can people stand for the auditionees being abused by the judges? I may be no expert but I don't believe that someone should be allowed come onto the show with some false hope or dream in their head and then be punished for it. Aren't they human beings too? Is it right that the judges can laugh at their performance and then criticise them for making some effort? Quite simply if people like Simon Cowell are going to be allowed to insult other people like this, then I don't know what the world's coming to. Just because a person is idle or boastful about 'having the X Factor' is it right for judges to display a similar type of behaviour? Is this a way of saying that other people don't have feelings the same as anyone else? In any case not all the auditionees behave like that and I don't believe that they should be hurt in such a cruel way.
