Alex is supposed to have a boyfriend besides Eoghan! Do you mean Diana? Sorry, yes.

Wow, the voting patterns make very interesting reading. As much as I disliked Eoghan it did seem as if he was very popular, especially as the songs he performed did well the following week on itunes.
Of course, when it came to the crunch and the massive final vote the better singers prevailed.
Anyhow, a great final result. Alex deserved to win and this single will probably sell in huge quantities.

Voted for Alexandra's duet with Beyonce, best performance of the series i've seen and one i'm not going to forget for a long long time.
JLS and Eoghan weren't bad (though i did like the random "Merry Christmas" line in JLS' performance of Last Christmas lol), but if Alex hadn't won i would have questioned whether X Factor was worth watching again, coming on top of Ruth's early exit. She proved what i already knew before the final, that she was head and shoulders above JLS and Eoghan. I'm tempted to buy her album when it comes out now, which would be the first time i've bought anything from an X Factor contestant. Won't be getting Hallelujah though as i don't like the song, even if she does do it very well.

Eoghan's been saying something completely different, that they're just close friends! Alex said the same when asked about it on the chart show last night too, not that i completely believe it.

Can't say I really care about Eggnog or Diana. Doubt we'll hear much from them again!

Sat yesterday afternoon and watched the whole show and have to say i really enjoyed it. Great with sky + though that you can fast forward the bits you don't like so didn't have to sit thru the repeat of the performances over and over and when they brought back all those awful singers!
I honestly thought all three performed really well, yes i do inculde Eoghan in that. I agree he wasn't good enough to win but i thought he gave it his all and thought he held his own with Boyzone.
Didn't like JLS performing with Westlife - what was up with Mark being heard above everyone else then his mike not working? Very off putting i thought.
Alexandra was in a world of her own though. Fantastic performances and she brought a tear to my eye on more than one occasion. Her duet with Beyonce was spine tingling and i loved her reaction when Beyonce came on stage, she looked awe struck. Beyonce was wonderful with her and she is so gracious.
Mention about Beyonce's own performance - WOW!! Best i've seen of her in ages and i kept thinking i bet those two guys in the audience thought they'd died and gone to heaven!
Kinda glad it's all over now and i won't have to read a name getting spelt wrongly time and time again, we've had Ughen, Eggnog to name but a few - his name is Eoghan!! That was seriously getting on my nerves everyweek.

Maybe, but the momentum and interest will be quickly lost in the losers, especially as they have to wait for a period of time. I can see JLS having a hit single, but not much else. I can't see much success coming from the others though.

Oh and forgot to say it was great to see my home city on the X Factor too, Eoghan got a great reception! Kinda glad it's all over now and i won't have to read a name getting spelt wrongly time and time again, we've had Ughen, Eggnog to name but a few - his name is Eoghan!! That was seriously getting on my nerves everyweek. 'Eggnog' is an intentional p*ss-take as opposed to a mis-spelling I know it was a p*ss-take Robin, probably didn't make myself clear enough. Still got on my nerves though! ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/999290/images/Kwn0BjsNURZTBPjgpQCU.gif)

I'm still delighted that Alexandra won ! I can't see the other finalists doing too well,but then again ,I never thought they'd reach the final either,so what do I know ?! I'd love for Ruth to have a hit single/album.

You two werent the only ones with the strangled cat references either, saw other people make them elsewhere and found them quite entertaining! Hadnt occured to me before, but after reading the comments i can see what people mean..

Wouldnt say i was a fan of Eoghan (though he impressed me more than Diana did and deserved to make the final instead of her imo) but after Alexandra i thought his performance with Boyzone was the best of the night. After his version of Ben which i liked ![:-[](//storage.proboards.com/999290/images/sStDBPuQXleoqpIJwHYi.gif) that was his next best performance for me. Completely agree with your comments on the Alex/Beyonce duet, but actually i wasn't sure about Beyonce's If I Were a Boy. Sounded as though they needed to turn the mic up at times, glad she performed live though.

I think Alexandra will have a career like Leona, but I can't see JLS, Diana, or Eoghan having a lasting record contract as I think their fan base will die out now the show is over ..... their talent doesn't support the euphoria whooped up during the X Factor shows.
