Hello again, lovely blog readers! It’s that time of the night where we sit back and reflect on the performances that we saw. And yes, we sit in judgement, because we don’t trust everything that Louis Walsh says, and we know that Simon will give his own acts the highest praise.

But really, who were the best and the worst of X Factor’s Movie Week? Well, let’s review (and you can give your own opinions in the comments, as always!)

1. Jamie Archer – Jamie sang a version of Crying from a little-known movie, but excelled by giving an emotional and powerful performance. He showed yet again that his strength might actually be outside of the rock style the show has lumbered him with.
2. Lucie Jones – A relatively unknown song choice for Lucie tonight, which might cost her in the phone votes when people don’t identify with it. However, she managed a great, fun and confident stage presence tonight, which definitely bested her category-mate Stacey’s performance.
3. Stacey Solomon – Stacey isn’t too far behind though. She looked sexy tonight and definitely put more effort into her routine, which deserves praise. A good vocal, but certainly not the best of her X Factor career.
4. Joe McElderry – A safe performance from Joe tonight, but didn’t work for me. I got a terrible Gareth Gates vibe from him tonight which made me question whether he can cut it as a recording artist. Gates isn’t relevant today, so would Joe be any different?
5. Olly Murs – Another fun performance from Olly, slightly on the cheesy side, but enjoyable. I almost placed him alongside Joe because he raises similar concerns: good performer, but can he sell records?
6. Danyl Johnson – Ah, Danyl. I was totally prepared to give him a second chance tonight. But although his performance was confident enough, his rendition of Purple Rain was overwrought and horrible to listen to. It was almost an emotionless, 3rd rate boyband version of the song and a huge disappointment.
   
7. Jedward – Enjoyable, but utterly pointless. Louis Walsh is going to have to face facts soon – if these two win the competition, The X Factor will have to change the prize (a record deal, in case you didn’t know).
8. Lloyd Daniels – Lloyd’s doe eyes are keeping him in the competition, which is a constant reminder that the voting audience don’t much care for talent (or in Lloyd’s case, lack of). I always feel bad criticising this guy, but ultimately he’s drifted out of his depth in the competition and it would be better for him to leave.

Can you predict the bottom two?

For my money, Lloyd should be bottom two this week, and hopefully go home. Jedward could do with a reality check as well. Although if I’m honest, I can see Joe or Olly ending up in the bottom two, depending on the fickle public.

Let’s get in started! Movie week, yeah!

Louis seems giddy as hell in the introductory VT. I hate it when he has something to smile about, it bodes badly! Dannii and Cheryl are feeling very maternal toward their acts as usual, but will Movie Week hit the spot? We hope so!

The judges walk out amid a hail of sparks and the ever-brilliant Star Wars theme tune. I’d love to hear somebody try to sing that one! But as always, there’s no messing about and Dannii introduces her first act…

Stacey Solomon

Stacey is blethering like a mad thing, as always. We see a bit of footage of her at the Jim Carrey premiere, but the focus is on her sexy song (Son Of A Preacher Man? Yep.) and her hopefully sexy dance moves.

Oh, Stacey looks hot in a figure-hugging all-black ensemble. And she’s moving this week, but not just walking, she’s got a real groove to her performance tonight! Nice ass, if you don’t mind me saying. She’s got a slightly lisp when she sings. I mention it because it’s slightly irksome during the dramatic bit toward the end, but otherwise a great vocal.

Louis: I love your new sexy look. You’ve definitely got the personality for this competition. Cheryl: It’s lovely to see you looking so young and sexy and cool. That was your most confident performance so far. Simon: I would call that a typical talent show competition. It’s like when you eat Chinese food, you still feel hungry afterward. I just don’t think that was a particularly good performance, and that was a lazy song choice. Dannii: That just goes to show how out of touch Simon Cowell is. You’re flirty, you’re fun, you’re young. It’s everything the song should be. You’ve got the authentic tone of Dusty Springfield.

Olly Murs

Olly gets to sing Twist And Shout inspired by Ferris Bueller. It’ll be a great, uptempo tune for Olly, and I reckon it’ll suit him pretty well.

Oh, it’s an unexpectedly elaborate stage routine. Olly descends the staircase to meet a troupe of shapely backing dancers and…oh yes, he really gets into the routine! That was unexpected. Vocally, it’s not an earth-shattering performance, because most of the energy is going into the dancing. A tad cheesy, more Jedward than Shayne Ward.

Louis: I loved your performance last week. I wasn’t crazy about the silly dancing, but I think Simon picked a silly song for a great singer. Dannii: There’s something that looks like you didn’t believe in the song, and why did it go into the Thriller routine. Cheryl: If you hadn’t seen that movie, the dance might seem random. That went down a storm. You are singing a lot of retro songs, I’d like to see you singing something contemporary. Simon: [gets totally drowned out by the audience] All of you are being quite mean tonight – he put on a great show!

Lloyd Daniels

Ah petal, poor Lloyd took a knock last week, having to sing with a sore throat. Losing his voice might have been an improvement. Lloyd gets to pretend that he’s seen the old movie Stand By Me. Despite the movie being set decades ago, Cheryl claims they’ve made it contemporary. What are the bets that they blend it into Sean Kingston’s Beautiful Girls?

Oh Lloyd, you’re so pretty, but oh so boring. And predictable. I knew they’d do the Kingston thing. I have no useful comment to make other than a paragraph of yawns. Yawn yawn yawn yawn yawn. Tepid.

Louis: The good news is it was better than last week. At this stage of the competition, you’re out of your depth. There are four better guy singers. Dannii: Vocally that was well-chosen for you. It was a nice performance. Simon: Nice like having tea with your mum. The point is, I think right now, you’re out of your depth. You’re competing against some big singers and it kinda feels like you’re giving up at the minute. Cheryl: That’s completely unfair. He’s down on his confidence, but I thought it was your vocally your most comfortable performance so far.

Jamie Archer

If rumours are to be believed, Jamie and mentor Simon are still sparking off each other. It seems like a tempestuous relationship. We see Simon changing Jamie’s song, from Unchained Melody to Crying from a little-known movie called Gumbo(?)

It’s a far more stripped down song, and a sensitive vocal from Jamie, which he seems to excel at. He knows just when to push the performance and when to drop back, I’ll give him that. Good vocal, but the end was somewhat inexplicable.

Louis: I’m so glad you dropped all the silly rock stuff. That was a great song and a very emotional performance. Dannii: Y’know what? It was an emotional performance and it was heartfelt. That’s what we want to see. Cheryl: I think Simon did you well changing the song. I think that song suited you beautifully and you sang it from the heart. Simon: I have to say, this is all about you. You chose that song, this performance was all about you. It was your best performance by a mile.

Lucie Jones

I’m getting bad vibes from my tribe of followers on Twitter. The most repeated word tonight is ‘boring’. I mention that because I really really hope that Lucie can pull this off. The awesome Yvie Burnett advises Lucie to come out and show her true colours. And?

The song is from Camp Rock, a movie I’m not familiar with. A bit wobbly on the vocals. Yo, dawg, that was a bit pitchy. At the same time, Lucie beats Stacey for animated performances. Not quite as good a voice, but she’s young fresh and fun. If they keep giving her the right songs.

Louis: Fantastic song choice. Not an obvious song, but very cool. You remind me of American girls like Taylor Swift. You’ve got star quality. Cheryl: It could have been your song. You just need to loosen up now and enjoy it a bit more! Simon: This is the first time, for me, you have made yourself relevant as a pop artist. Now the song and you are working. It’s not a well known song, but it’s a good song. Dannii: I’m not the only person who loves Lucie! Beautiful performance.

Danyl Johnson

The most controversial contestant this year. More even than the dreaded Jedward. I think he’s definitely the best performer of the series this year, but the hype around him has got everybody riled. They say he’s got a new look, but it’s actually Shayne Ward’s look. Hey Danyl, 2006 called, they want their haircut back.

His song tonight is Purple Rain, the Ruth Lorenzo, sorry, Prince, classic. No, sorry, it isn’t working Danyl. Prince did this with flair and style. This is a bland, tepid version utterly devoid of soul. Yes, it’s note perfect, but passionless. Bring back Ruth Lorenzo!

Louis: Very few people can pick a great song and do it justice. I loved the falsetto. Danyl, you deserve to be in the competition. Dannii: Love the new look. It was a really really good performance. I loved the falsetto, but I don’t love it when you scream. It doesn’t do you justice. Cheryl: I like your demeanour tonight Danyl. It’s kinda like you lost that cocky attitude you began with, but you’re not that broken man we saw last week. Simon: That was an outstanding vocal. I really mean this. I think this show has found a great great singer, who was almost broken, who now has his confidence back up.

John and Edward (aka Jedward)

I’m not in the mood for these morons tonight. Seriously. After some quite dull performances from the contestants, I’m not interested in the comic relief. But at least Louis Walsh is practising what he preaches and giving them a strictly movie song.

I’m fighting to hate it to be honest. The song itself begs to be loved, and in contrast with the other acts, at least this is a bit dumb. Even Simon is smiling. Total rubbish, but more fun than anything else this evening.

Dannii: I’ve got no idea of anything constructive to say. You either talk or you rap, so I’m wondering what you’ll release if you get a deal. Cheryl: You bring fun to this show. Whether people like you or not, it’s fun to watch. Kids from 3 to 10 absolutely adore you. Simon: I think we’ve established that you can’t sing. But, this was actually a good song for you because based on some of the horrors we’ve seen before, this was…sort of good. It was more entertaining than some of the more karaoke stuff I’ve seen before.

Joe McElderry

Now that Rachel’s gone, Joe is one of my favourites to win the show. Just a down to earth, sweet, unassuming guy and a good performer and vocalist too. He’ll be singing Circle Of Life tonight. The only thing I worry about with Joe is the tiny Gareth Gates vibe I get from him.

I’m seeing a little of that tonight. The vocal was a little dissatisfying for me at the start, but improves as the song goes on. Still, not much performance from Joe tonight.

Louis: You tick all the boxes. I do think you’re more musical theatre than pop star. I think the song was predictable and safe. Dannii: Coming from the mentor of John and Edward, you’re looking for a pop star? You are the best male vocalist in the competition hands down. You’re the most likable. Your voice is strong, but I didn’t like the production on this song, I didn’t really get it. Simon: I thought it was a perfect song for you. I liked the production, but what I didn’t like is the fact that you’ve gotta stop this stage-school swaying. You’ve got to take the mic, believe in yourself. I think you’re commercial, I think you know who you are, and you should enjoy this moment. Cheryl: I’m just so proud to watch you up there singing.

A little bit of a hissy fit from Louis as Dermot challenges him on stage “I’M A JUDGE DERMOT, YOU’RE ONLY A PRESENTER!!!” Ouch, get back on your box Dermot? No, Louis has made a joke of this show this year. What an ugly little display from Walsh.

Katie Price has reportedly been offered a whopping £450,000 to return to ITV’s I’m A Celebrity Get M Out Of Here.

The former glamour model first entered the jungle in 2004 and met her future husband Peter Andre during her stint.

An insider told The Daily Mail: “It will at least be not on the first night and she will enter the jungle unannounced. It is very cheeky and very bold.

“This would be the first time ever someone has gone back in. I am sure the advantage of it is that it will keep her on the front page day after day for two-and-a-half weeks without actually having to do anything. And it is absolute ratings dynamite.”

However a source close to the star is quoted as saying: “I don’t think she will be doing it, she is going to Los Angeles when the show starts – but never say never with Katie.”

Leaving last week’s rock image way behind her, Lucie Jones has revealed that she will be performing a Disney track on this week’s X Factor.

During a video blog for the official X Factor website Lucie said:

“I’m really pleased that I’m still here and I had a really good time last week. I love my new long hair and I loved the song that I did last week [Guns N' Roses' 'Sweet Child O' Mine'].”

“I’ve picked a really good song with Dannii this week. Everyone who likes Disney is going to love it. It’s from a Disney movie… but what one? I can’t tell you.”

Lucie also talked about how she was affected by homesickness when she moved into the X factor house

“When I used to see family and friends at the weekend, I used to get upset when they left,” she said. “But you have to realise that it’s only a couple of weeks of your life and it’s such a big opportunity. If anything like this happens to you, you have to take it in your stride.”

As always, we’d love to hear your comments below.

Former X Factor contestant Rachel Adedeji has let her true feelings about her departure slip and admitted that she doesn’t think the show is about talent anymore.

Talking on Red Dragon FM, she said: “I don’t know if X Factor is about talent anymore to be honest – seriously.”

Talking about twins John and Edward Grimes, she added: “They don’t have to be good singers, what the hell.

“Listen, they enjoy what they do and they want to be popstars.”

Rachel is backing Joe McElderry to win. She said: “He’s my favourite. Week after week he’s proper going for it.

“He just wants to do this and is one of the most positive people in the house. I love Joe.”

Former Emmerdale actress Hayley Tamaddon has reportedly signed up for next year’s series of Dancing On Ice.

Hayley played Delilah Dingle on the ITV soap and also starred in reality TV show, Soapstar Superstar.

A source told The Sun: “Hayley’s really excited. She is a really warm character and usually does well on these things.

“She has spoken to other Emmerdale stars who have taken part and they all encouraged her.”

Sources close to Princesses Bea and Eugenie have revealed that the pair are backing twins John and Edward to win The X Factor.

The Princesses are such big fans of the show, that they have managed to get tickets for tomorrow night’s show.

A source close to the girls told The Sun: “Bea and Eugenie love the X Factor.

“They’re privately backing John and Edward. The twins are not everyone’s cup of tea but the princesses admire their determination.”

They Princesses particularly enjoyed last week’s ‘We Will Rock You’ performance and the source added : “They thought it was hilarious and don’t want the boys kicked off.”

Former Pop Stars: The Rivals competitors, The Cheeky Girls have blasted X Factor’s John and Edward Grimes, saying that they will never have a career like them.

In an act of supreme hypocrisy, Monica told The Sun: “They’ll never have a song on the radio like us. Without all the dancers around them, John and Edward would not be so attractive. There is a lot of smoke and mirrors.

“Our fan base is much wider. Fans of all ages listen to our songs. They don’t even have a proper name.”

Gabriella said: “They can’t really sing – they’re totally out of tune. But they have the best stage set-up out of the whole show – the best outfits, dancers, lights, props…

“It draws all the attention from them, instead of focusing on the real talent and the real singing and dancing. It is not fair towards all the other acts.”

She added: “Please don’t compare us to the twins.

“They are not like us except that they’re biological twins. We have been performers since we were four.

“They’re not a novelty act, we’re a novelty act. A novelty act must have something new. They don’t.”

The girls added that they are backing single mum Stacey to win.

Gabriela said: “Stacey has the best voice and the best character. She’s definitely an original. She has so much personality.

“People are voting for the twins for fun. They should vote for the real talent. Vote for Stacey, the twins have had their moment.”

Samantha Fox is rumoured to have signed up for this year’s series of I’m A Celebrity. The former glamour model has reportedly been offered £60,000 to appear on the show.

A show insider told The Sun: “Sam is a Page 3 icon and will be the show’s glamour girl.

“She’s no pushover and will speak her mind. She’ll be a strong contestant and viewers will be interested to see what she’s up to.”
