X-Factor tripe

John Carter · 16-12-2007, 01:47 AM

So, I was forced to watch the X-Factor final tonight.

Do the proles really sit down and watch this tripe? I mean, what's with the cutting to family/public reaction every two minutes? They didn't have to do that with Baywatch, did they?

Oh. And that Taff bloke should have won. Classes ahead of the competition. It's criminal.

Somebody kill me now. Please.

The bookmakers had Rhydian down to win.

But he came second and may still do well despite not winning this year's X-Factor.

Presenter Mike Mendoza said on TalkSport radio at 2.11 am on 16.12.2007 about the result of yesterday's X-Factor "We were robbed! I did not like Rhydian at first for the first few weeks (of X-Factor) - but he has a stunning voice. I could keep listening to him. This was Scotland v. Wales and, obviously there are more people in Scotland. But Rhydian has talent."

A caller to Mike Mendoza's programme said that the winner of X-Factor was "feeble in musical performance" last night and was not impressive when he sung with Kylie Minogue. The caller, Russ, said "Rhydian should have won."

Rhydian, from Wales, came second. The winner was from Scotland. In third place were a brother and sister musical act from England.

Danni Minogue looked very nice though.

It wasn't about who was the most talented - it was about who had the best sob story.

Still, that's democracy for you.

The punishment is good for you.
You haven't mentioned your misdemeanour.
