What does everyone think of X Factor this year??

X Factor started on Saturday with the all new format, live audiences in the auditions, so what do we think??

Personally i really liked it, it gave a better atmosphere and i would say the only downside really is that if you're a bad singer you are embarressing yourself in front of all those people and you cant hide behind the camera crew.

I do think though that X factor and those sorts of shows now are just so rigged...I mean they drag through the rubbish singers just to make good tv. There are at least 2 auditions before they go in front of those all important judges, and i think that is so unfair, and they wonder why some of these awful singers have confidence....tut tut.

Now for the judges, we have Simon Cowell (Mr Nasty) who is a very successful man with well bad hair (what is that all about!! ) but do people respect him, yes! I think hes the one everyone listens to even if he is a bit harsh to "Mr Out of Tune" he is quite funny and the show would definatey not be the same without him.

Louis Walsh...well what can we say the litte Irish Tinker!! I love Louis he is just so cute and funny. Simon always ribs him about being Irish and loving Weslife and Westlife only style groups/singers but i think hes great...hes got a great ear for people and lets face it would he have got where he is today if he was useless...I dont think so personally! Bring on the Walsh!!!

Danni Minogue, now Danni is great i used to think shes riding on Kylies fame a little with no talent herself...but i do like her. She is definately very likable and nice, im not sure about talent spotting and her abilities there but seems to have a good ear for it. Unfortunately she seems to be very much over shadowed by Cheryl, and i reckon that really gets to her!

Now Cheryl, i really like Cheryl...she can be annoying but in a really nice way. She comes accross very naive which is endearing. Whenever i think of her i think "My little Diana Vickers" in her Jordy accent. She did do very well last year but by far she had the best group, the others didnt have a chance against her lot! What ever happened to Laura White...she was my fave :-(

Anyway lets hope this year is gonna be full of talent like last year...and lets hope there is plenty of scandal because we LOVE it!!
