totally agree simon cowells just confirmed its a fix for me

I cannot beleive it!
Simon has gone down in my estimation tonight, the only reason he kept them in was so his acts had another week next week when they will be in the bottom 2 again.

I agree, i was just saying that its strange that simon is the first one to say their shit, and he had a golden opportunity tonight to send them packing but he didnt, WTF
Lucy sang that song almost note perfect and did not deserve to be booted off in favour of those talentless fools, anyone can run around and shout the rock dj song

Business is business, do what ya gotta do. I'd have done the same as the Cowell.
Look at the reaction (attraction) its causing.

He kept them in to keep the show in the papers for the week. They obviously can't sing for shit but they are entertaining the young voters somehow making them vote. That young blonde lad can't sing for shit either. He'll prob go before jedward.

Simon knows what he's doing
He wants one of his acts to win and this way 1 threat is gone , that means one more week where if any of his are in the bottom 2 he's got a dam good chance of saving him
Although why Lucy was in the bottom 2 is a mystery, that lloyd should of been there for sure

As said at the start of this thread is all about the viewing figures, he's a smart guy, when he takes the the time to think and mumble on when dermot asks his vote on who to bin that week, what he's actually thinking is "what is the best way to cause contraversy and boost ratings?". Don't forget that shows like this are his creation, he knows how it all works and what course of action to take.Totally agree with all the comments on here though (which is a rareity) but I've gone off the X-factor now, it's far too commercialised and edited now, glad i'm busy the next two weekends, i won't miss not seeing it, now i usually sit with it on in the background while I'm surfing the net and don't even pay attention, can't see that changing now unfortunately.

wot he meant to say was I took it to the public vote last time and got alot of publicity for it- so i think i'll do it again
nowt to do with the acts its all about mr Cowells bank balance.
shame, as it use to be at least loosely a singing competition and if the public don't treat it as one the judges should be the ones picking the good singers.
Its now all about popularity and having the right image. which i think is sad so early on in th competition when the likes of lucie where just finding there feet in front of a live audience

X factor couldnt afford the scandal of it coming out that the pubic vote was rigged, they earn FAR too much money from the voting to risk losing it all by rigging the votes.
Losing credibility of the vote, would take millions off the x factor brand value.

Its a very simple set of circumstances that is controlled by the business genius that is Simon Cowell.
1) He bad mouths Jedward and says they are rubbish - the public vote for them in droves
2) He is nice to them - the public dont vote, they end up in the bottom 2
3) he knows Louis will vote for his act, Danni will vote for her act and Cheryl would vote for Lucy, which makes it down to him for the final vote.
4) A good pretty singer to rival his 3 lads or a shite pair of twins who cant sing but put on a good show. Which one of those acts threatens his 3 lads the most? So he puts it to the public vote.
The only fix/scam it could be is if Simon knew the result of the public vote before he was asked to make his decision. But imo i dont beleive that to be the case. In effect what Simon has achieved, is to make million's of people tune in next week to see what happens.
He isnt worth millions of pounds for nothing. He is a very clever and shrewd businessman
