The X Factor - Final

Those of you who have been watching The X Factor UK this year know that last night Christopher Maloney went home last night much to my relief. And there are 2finalists left, two young brilliant, hot guys with incredible voices. Jahmene Douglas “The little guy from asda with the big voice.” And James Arthur, the big tough guy from the small unknown town. But I want to take this opportunity to talk about all the 12 finalists.

Carolynne Poole- After being in the judges houses last year with Louis’s lot, her confidence was knocked when she didn’t get through, but she came back fighting and ended up with Gary’s lot this year. She was a country singer and the first to leave. If I’m honest I wasn’t a huge Carolynne fan, as Gary said, she does have a great voice, and it’s just really not my cup of tea. If I’m listening to country music it’s only Taylor Swift.

Melanie Masson-. I actually loved Melanie’s voice. And her style. Her personality. She seemed so awesome. I mean that voice, plus that amazing hair, topped off with her down-to-earth personality was amazing. I thought her voice was strong and powerful, but I don’t think she would have won, but I did think she was better than District 3.

MK1- After letting one of their band mates go in the auditions and making it into the live shows as a duet, MK1 were in the bottom 2 with Kye Sones, week 3. I flipping loved MK1. I loved their unique-ness, their energy, their look and their chemistry together. No, they weren’t the strongest vocalists but together I think they had the potential to go quite far and I think it’s a shame they were let go so early on in the competition.

Jade Ellis- She had a bad throat in week 4, and was sent home. Jade Ellis, the beautiful, young, inspirational mum with a killer voice lost out. I loved Jade, I thought she deserved to do well, and she was so strong. Despite everything she’s such a beautiful happy person. And I think she’ll still go far now, I hope now that her and her little girl will live happily ever after :)

Lucy Spraggan- After being ill for the second week in a row, Lucy was sadly withdrawn from the competition. I loved Lucy; I thought her audition was so so good. I’ve actually downloaded that song and I’ve been playing it over and over. I thought she was such a great songwriter, but again not the strongest vocalist in the competition. What I really want for her is to write a song/collaborate with Ed Sheeran that would be a dream come true for me.

Kye Sones- week 5, the week we lost Kye. He was the chimney sweep that everybody sympathised. I never usually loved Kye’s performances but when he sang “I won’t give up.” In the bottom 2 with Rylan I thought he sounded amazing, like super amazing and I don’t think he should have gone.

District 3- Not much to say about District 3, I never really liked them. I respect what they do and I think their voices are nice, not great. I always kind of preferred Union J, I wasn’t really sorry to see them go in week6.

Ella Henderson- Week7, the biggest shock yet, when 16year old Ella was eliminated. Everybody thought Ella was a sure finalist and NOBODY expected her to go home at this stage. Not only that, but she was in the bottom 2 with James Arthur. Now somebody tell me that makes sense? I was devastated that she went home, but also glad James stayed. Ella will go really really far despite this.

Rylan Clark- Rylan is marmite. You love him or you hate him. I personally loved him, I thought he was a brilliant entertainer and when everyone hates on him it really makes me sad.  When he came back last night and sang ‘gangnam style’, I was ecstatic; I literally got him and started dancing along with him. I think after this, everyone is gonna want a bit of Rylan.

Union J- Not my favourite act in the competition, but Union J were pretty good. Not only that I think since their audition, and Josh being put with the, they’ve matured so much, they’re hot, they’ve got good voices  that harmonise nicely together and I think they’re gonna do well, though there may be a little competition between them and my favourite boy-band, ONE DIRECTION<3

Christopher Maloney- Right, well I don’t mean to sound rude, but why was Chris even still in the competition? I do respect what he does, and I think his voice is ok. But when acts like Jade and Ella have been eliminated and he’s still there it worries me. They are two incredibly talented girls, and though Chris “can sing” in some people’s opinion, I really think he should have gone home week2, instead of Melanie.

Finalists

Jahmene Douglas- “From frozen foods to warming hearts.” Nicole’s little lamb chop, Jahmene is un-doubtabley one of the most adorable people ever. His smile and laugh and shyness is the cutest thing. But when he sings, damn does that shy little boy go away, he’s got a fantastic voice and last night he stole the hearts of everyone in Britain. Whether he wins now or not, he’ll never have to go back to his job in Asda; Jahmene Douglas is going to be one of the most successful singers in 2013. I think he’s got a bright beautiful future.

James Arthur- Damn, James bloody Arthur is just wow. Words do not even begin to cover how great he is. His first performance last night blew me away, I was speechless. He sings with such attitude and meaning, you can literally feel the emotions he is feeling. His voice is an utter eargasm. And as well as that, he’s un-believably sexy. He’s been getting so much female attention ;) I know me and my friends totally fan girl over him. He’s gorgeous and I don’t wanna be biased but I want him to win!

So tonight is the final, who do you lot think will win? Comment below and let me know J

Ciao!
