An X Factor hopeful who was seen criticising Tulisa Contostavlos on Saturday night’s show, has claimed that she wishes she’d never auditioned for the judges.
Girlband Angel took to the stage in London’s O2 Arena earlier this year and performed Willow Smith ‘I Whip My Hair’ for Tulisa, Gary Barlow, Kelly Rowland and Louis Walsh but got four nos after none of the panel enjoyed their rendition.
The N-Dubz star was particularly cutting with her comments, telling the trio that she was going to be ‘blunt’ and adding:

Kelly Rowland was seen leaping to the defence of her fellow X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos on tonight’s episode.
The Destinys Child star was horrified when the lead singer of girl band Angel criticised her co-star and insinuated that she wasn’t much of a singer, after she offered her opinion on their audition piece.

Angel will be seen causing controversy on tonight’s X Factor episode.
The girl group try to impress the judges with their rendition of Willow Smith’s Whip My Hair Back and Forth, but when Tulisa Contostavlos admits that she didn’t love the performance, they hit out, implying that she has no singing talent.

Angel was evicted last night and Halfwit gets to live another day, or week even. The Russian housemate received a whopping 81% of the public vote, and quite a few of those could well have been made by me!
Her spitting/dribbling thing was the final straw for me. What made you want to vote her out, if you did?
It was a tad cringe making to see her doing that weird mime thing again as she left to a cacophony of boos and then trying to defend herself during the interview with Davina over nicking Siavash’s photo. Yet again she said she did it for her ‘art’. What a load. Since when did ‘art’ mean you couldn’t ask if you could have stuff? Read more & comment »

Angel’s so convinced that she’s offski tonight, she’s giving all the housemates something of hers to remember her by.
She gave Charlie her skipping rope and, just to be sure he understood what it was, as she placed the precious artefact de Angel in his hands, she said, “Skipping rope.” Phew, glad she cleared that up.
Next to receive a gift from Russia With Love was Noirin to whom Angel handed a sparkly ring… Read more & comment »

Angel has told Halfwit that she hopes she’s going to leave the house tonight.
“I’ve made myself ready to go. I’ve had enough” she told him.
Halfwit seemed uncomfortable with the conversation and struggled to find something appropriate to say but eventually came up with, “Either way, you’re an entertainer. Whatever happens, you inspire people.
“Look at it like this – when you leave here, it’s like being born again…” Read more & comment »

Overnight Noirin has lost her temper, possibly for the first time in the house. After dinner last night, Noirin asked Angel to wash the dishes and said that she was asking because Angel has only “dried up once.”
This led to a row during which the house seemed divided in opinion about the issue. Many commented that as it was potentially Angel’s last night, she shouldn’t have been subjected to a row while the other half agreed that Angel was lazy and contributed little to the running of the house.

Oh dear, Charlie’s had Angel in tears this afternoon with his madcap antics. That crazy kid decided that serious faced Angel needed cheering up and further decided that chucking a load of water over her would achieve that goal… Wrong!
The poe faced Russian has been working on some additions to her eviction outfit all night last night and all day today. She’s been methodically cutting up and sewing bits of old cans onto a black jacket but when Charlie did his water chucking, the precious jacket got wet. Cue tears and about six million grovelling apologies from Charlie… Read more & comment »

Angel’s weirdness seems to be becoming ever more apparent and last night, she told Marcus that she thinks Lisa hates her because she’s gay.
She said, “I knew people would hate me” to which he responded, “It’s not that people hate you. I know Lisa looks for an argument with you.”
“It’s because she’s gay. I’m gay. She thinks she’s the best gay in the house and the only one. I know this from beginning…” Read more & comment »

As a birthday present, Big Brother granted Halfwit the “Gift of Normality” yesterday, which meant that he could choose either to go back to being called Freddie instead of Halfwit, or he could let Dogface go back to being Sophie or allow Noirin to stop putting on her glasses and moustache.
In true gentlemanly form, he chose to free Noirin of the marker-pen grind and she’s now sans drawn on facial features. She was of course delighted and Freddie was rewarded with cheers and appreciative slaps on the back from the other housemates. In addition, they all received carrot cake, music, booze and no less than 9 tokens.
However, it seems that it all got a bit grossly erotic soon after… Read more & comment »
