Miss Frank member Graziella Affinita, has defended John and Edward Grimes and insisted that she is not bitter about losing out to them on The X Factor.
Speaking on The Will Leahy Show on RTÉ 2fm yesterday, Graziella commented: “We love them so much. They’re really good lads.”
“They work really hard and they deserve every minute of this.”
X Factor rejects Miss Frank, have said that they know why they were voted off the sow last Sunday night. They blame the fact that so many young girls, only vote for boys that they fancy.
Student Graziella Affinita, told The Sun: “I think the girls that watch it tend to vote for boys. That is just the way it works on the show.”
Shar Alexandra added: “Maybe people find it hard to connect to more than one person.
Miss Frank have become the third act to be voted off X Factor 2009.
The ill-fated girlband found themselves in the bottom two tonight with Danyl Johnson. They sang ‘Love Don’t Live Here Anymore’ and though Graziella’s rap was strong, the harmonies were not. I think that was their downfall in the end.
The mum of Miss Frank singer, Graziella, has insisted that Simon Cowell made a mistake by forcing her to compete as part of a band. She believes that Graziella would be more successful singing alone.
Julie Affinita told The Mirror: “I believe Graziella would work so much better without the group. Her style is so different. She’s a rapper and hip-hop artist. That is what she has been doing all her life.
“When I saw her perform with the group last week I thought, ‘this is not Graziella – she can do better than that’. When she works on her own she knows what people want. She knows her audience.
X Factor contestant Graziella Affinita, has admitted that Simon Cowell was spot on in his criticism of her girl group, Miss Frank.
After the girls sang Whitney Houston’s ‘All The Man That I Need’, Simon Cowell said:
“It was out of tune, particularly at the end and you didn’t feel like a group.”
Graziella told The Haringey Independant: “We happen to be our own worst critics so we always take the judge’s comments on board and are striving for perfection with our vocals.
This week’s X Factor theme is Diva week and given that Whitney Houston is their big star guest, we can probably expect to hear more than one of her tunes.
Some of the contestants songs have been leaked and we’d love to hear what you think of the judges choices for their acts.

Miss Frank never intended to be a girlband. All three girls auditioned for X Factor as solo singers, then the judges persuaded them to form a group.
It would seem that their lack of a bond and a history is affecting their work, with some X Factor sources suggesting that they will never remain together after the show.
X Factor singer Shaniece Davis has insisted that she and the other Miss Frank members, won’t be going on a diet any time soon.
The 25-year-old, told The News Of The World: “I’ve got massive boobs – and they are natural. I have a big bum. We’re not skinny at all.
Louis Walsh has reportedly admitted that he was ‘peeved’, when he heard he would be mentoring the groups category on this years series.
The Mirror quotes Louis as saying:
“Yes I was peeved, but I wasn’t going to show it.”
X Factor hopefuls have defended their mentor Louis Walsh, saying that he doesn’t think they are destined to lose.
Newspaper reports stated that Walsh claimed to have the ‘hardest group’ and no way of winning this year’s show.
However Miss Frank’s Shar Alexandra told the Press Association: “Maybe he’s saying that to surprise the public so everyone thinks he’s not going to win and then there’ll be a dramatic climax and one of us will.”
Edward Grimes said: “You can’t just say ‘I’m going to win the show’ because it puts a lot of pressure on you. You set your expectations so high that your expectations are higher than the actual act.”

GRAZIELLA AFFINITA, 25
FROM: London
OCCUPATION: Student
Graziella lives in London and started singing when she was 6 years old in church choirs and school plays.
New girl group ‘Miss Frank’ amazed me last night when they banded together at bootcamp and performed ‘That’s Life.’ You can watch a clip here.
The girls seemed to gel quickly, so much so, that the judges asked them to form a group and come back for the next stage.
Never heard of Miss F.R.A.N.K? Don’t worry, they are the newly formed girl band who sang together on last night’s bootcamp show.
It’s hardly a new story. Solo singers get rejected at X factor bootcamp, so decide to band together and re-audition as a group.
Shar Alexander, Shanice Davis & Graziella Affinita all auditioned in London this year and went on to form girl band Miss Frank during the bootcamp round.
We have yet to hear the girls sing together, however their solo auditions were impressive so its bound to be good. For a MAJOR spoiler on the girls click here, but only if you really want to know.
