X Factor, X Craptor.

I have a ridiculous (but extremely healthy) addiction to The X Factor. This year the return of Queen Sharon has re-lit my fire much more than Gary Barlow ever has. ( Don't take it personally Gaz, I heart you too!) Sharon's uncontrollable laughter along with her amazing friendship with Louis brings a little warmth to my heart on a Saturday evening. (Hungover Sunday afternoon, same thing). With double auditions and a new series full of brand spanking new hopefuls hoping they've got that 'X' factor I could not be more excited than a kid at christmas.

I need a night out with these two! 

Well this kid at christmas has got a second hand bike thats gathered up a bit of rust. Ok, gathered rust, that's a little harsh. But its not far from the truth.

After being a little upset with Mr Cowell for serving up two episodes of X Factor last week, whilst the viewing public only saw about six people audition altogether I was willing to give him a bit of a chance this week.

Apart from being encouraged to laugh at the mentally unstable and the completely delusional, viewers were served up a selection of second hand talent. Yeah thats right, contestants who had auditioned three, four times. Been to boot camp, flown to judges houses and sent packing on their way back to reality. I'm all for having ambition and understand you want to make your dream come true, reach your ultimate goal etc etc. But seriously?! THREE, FOUR TIMES?! 

 The 'X' of the factor is that oh so credible talent you can see beaming in Simon Cowell's eyes when he realises you have it. With your talent and his power as leader of the free world, he will fling you from your day job in Morrison's to ££££'s and worldwide popularity quicker than he can say "Your talent is buying me a new yacht." So surely he would have spotted it already.  

Gotta start somewhere. 

Molly King and Max George should give out some advice for these repeat offenders. I'm not saying they lack talent. I am fearful of their rejection. If it pains ME this much, what are they feeling? #harshtimes my friends!

I am emotionally attached to The X Factor, and I'm cool with that.
