This morning I had the misfortune to watch a rerun of last nights the X Factor (My kids are hooked on reality TV)
Well as a complete newcomer to this programme, I cannot believe that these last four acts of such utter dross, sum up the total talent for the UK? Or maybe the real answer is the true self respecting talented souls out there wouldn't be seen dead anywhere near it?
There were four acts left.
G4. A barbers shop quintet harmonising Queen songs. If Freddie doesn't rise up from the grave and strike them dead we'll send Anita Dobson in to do the job (one look at the poodle perm will strike terror into the heart of anyone)
Tabby. Some disastrous hair tint, seemingly unwashed guy, named after a cat. Seems able to play a few bars of a song on his guitar. Then does the most horrendous Guns and Roses cover. Talent? My vibrator's more talented than that crock of shit.
Rowetta. Alarmingly reminded me of some slightly unhinged relative. Dreadful perm and talks such utter crap, unable to keep her mouth shut for one second. A terrible Shirley Bassey soundalike minus Shirleys star appeal. She got kicked out and obv wants to get in Simon Cowells knickers. A stupid thing to want when he spouts such shit from every orifice.
Steve. Ummm the most bland unattractive man in the world. A David Essex wannabe. But he will NEVER have Davids sex appeal and boy charm. His voice was terrible. He didn't appear to even have a personality.
The Judges were discussing the contestants future at one point. Simon said they were going to have a star studded time , until Louis put a little oar in the works by mentioning the disastrous winner that was Michelle McManus. One hit then disappeared off the face of the earth.
The great British public are a fickle lot. The people that vote on these programmes are prob under 10 yrs. They don't have the cash to buy the records afterwards and any self respecting parent wouldn't allow it in the house.
There are only a few exceptions to this. Girls Aloud....Made special by Cheryl Tweedys famous Chavness. These girls are what you see. We love a group of real slappers in the UK. Will Young. Saving grace is his gayness. Gay is good. Plus he's made some good decisions and has a fairly acceptable voice.
But the dreadful mistakes and immediate return to oblivion of such acts ace David Sneddon, One True Voice, Michelle McAnus and that short lesbian Cornish girl who won fame academy (can't even remember her name) makes it a rocky road for the winner of any reality pop show.
(PS WTF is Nadia doing singing? She sounds like some seal crossed with a fog horn completely dire)

The only reality TV I watch is Survivor. It sounds about as crazy as what you watch! I too got sucked into it by other people.
