Leona is not ten a penny!

Rubbish lot left though, i'm glad Ben's card has now been marked

[dandyhighwayman]

Leona's voice is not 10 a penny. The others are of that category but Leona can sing more than well enough to deserve a recording contract - you get one person who can really sing like that every now and again, Whitney, Mariah, Christina... Leona?

Damn we've got the school Christmas disco and Bazaar on evening of 16th. Got to go as I'm one of the main organisers.

For a British female she is outstanding but she can't yet be compared to those others

[S1m]

I think she can Thor, because she's able to sing as well as each of them, comfortably in her own way, whereas I doubt Mariah would try a Whitney type song or vice versa.

In terms of vocal ability, she can.

In terms of success, of course she can't, but that's a different thing all together.

Don't get me wrong I think she's great and elements of her voice are world class but I don't feel *yet* that it's all come together

Maybe she can be compared, but just not favourably

[S1m]

Well she's got a better voice than you! And better hair, obviously! ;D

[Thor]

You've never heard me sing and I know who you'd kick out of bed first

[Chris]

So who does anyone think will go next week then? Think it's just the public vote for certain.

[Thor]

Ray for sure

[Chris]

Yeah I reckon Ray. A Leona-McDonalds final!

[Doctor Blind]

I hope Leona doesn't win, simply because she'd stand a much better chance of a decent career if she came 2nd tbh- I mean look at the chart careers of past winners. Only Lemar, Will Young and Girls Aloud have had ANY staying power at all.

By this time next year the winner will have been dropped in favour of the next winner.

[S1m]

It has to be Ray to go because it always magically ends up with each judge having one act left! Not that it's fixed, but it is rather magical!

[Chris]

There's a great thread over on Digital Spy about the possibility of McDonalds winning."Would this be the end of X-Factor" No,why should it?

LOL I think that's more to do with the public having favourite judges than anything else

And it didn't happen in Celebrity X factor

Of course it would, it would make the search a total waste of time

[Chris]

So what's wrong if the public make them the winner? Lots of people obviously like them.
I don't think they'll actually win it tbh.

Celebrity X Factor doesn't count because A) it wasn't a talent search, B) the judges didn't pick their act or groom them for stardom and C) the "talent" was actually dreadful!
