Louis Walsh is ‘quietly confident’ about X Factor groups
Louis Walsh has admitted that he is quietly confident’ that one of his groups can win this year’s X Factor.
Walsh told BBC Newsbeat: “I’m quietly confident. Listen, I got to the final last year with JLS. They’re the big success act.
“I got there with G4. I won it with Shayne [Ward]. I could be in the final this year. Only one act is going to win. 11 are going to go home. It’s wide open, I think.”
He added: “I’ve got two very good girl bands. [John & Edward] can only get better. They’re young, they’re inexperienced, they’ve no sob story.
“I had a few reasons for putting them through. One of the reasons [was to annoy Simon Cowell]. I didn’t put them through because they’re Irish.”
I notice that Louis seems to be taking some sort of credit for JLS’s recent chart success. Of course we all know that had he been managing them, they would have pumped out one album of motown covers then quietly disappeared into obscurity.

Why does everyone keep talking about Louis success with JLS!!
Louis let them down on the programme gave them crap songs and
routines which is why JLS turned down his offer to manage
them. JLS got where they are by working very, very hard,
determination and being talented, if Louis had been a
decent mentor they would have won last year, but JLS have
probably done better by not winning. So please lets stop
giving Louis the credit for JLS’s success it is not down to
him at all.
I bet the Obnoxious twins must feel good knowing their mentor
only put them through to annoy Simon. So everyone complaining
that people are giving them a hard time we have been saying
that is why they went through, it was obvious as they have no
talent.
