X Factor 2008: Ant And Seb
Earlier this week the X Factor judges each released some questions and answers about this years show, series and acts.
More than one of them mentioned Ant and Seb as one of the most memorable acts they had seen throughout the auditions, and guess what, the pair are featured in the series first show on Saturday night.
I think it’s fair to say that if you don’t laugh at the Welsh boys audition footage then you are 100% lacking in a sense of humour and need to see your GP about a transplant.
The pair are teenage Welsh boys with really bad bum fluff. Whe Simon asks who they compare themselves to Seb states that he is rather like P.Diddy while his pal Ant is very like Usher, he goes on to explain however that when Ant sings solo he also sounds a lot like Rik Astley. How someone can sound like Usher and Rik Astley all at once confuses me a lot!
Ant then launches into a pretty bad rendition of Peter Andre’s hit ‘Mysterious Girl’, which is hard enough on the eardrums before Seb starts dropping in bad rap lines in an even worse Jamacian accent.
Unsurprisingly none of the judges liked Ant and Seb, but would the pair be told? No! They kept singing and pushing until Tony the Great had to escort them out of the audition room.
It is a classic X Factor moment, made better by the fact that Sharon Osbourne wasn’t there to back the boys up and try to put them through to bootcamp for their pure novelty value.

Yes i agree some critics these days will do anything to get a story Look what they have done to britney spears i also heard that bridgend was the most suicide place in wales So the judges gotta watch with critics like lisa she cld make someone comit suicide or worse its like there bullying them really harsh coz thesde guys are real good i got a special crush on the singer in the black top he has an awseome voice with a really smooth soft tone and he does sound like usher and rick astley he has a very deep voice and smooth which combines great together.
Ya man, i really dig this new style love the rapper he’s got a cool reggae rap sound there.
The singer is amazing and so talented.
All the girls love him why not he’s got a very awseome voice and he’s good
THE SINGER SOUNDS BRILLIANT.

Hey yeah i can totally relate to that sometimes the critics are so harsh and could make people comit suicide. I myself also audtioned and have to say the judges were really harsh makes you think of comiting suicide with critics this being like this.
PLus these guys are actually quite good, the singer does remind me also of rick astley with his deep voice its increbile and so awseome.
Yo Yo was up homies yeah i can also relate to that. They done the same thing to one of my mates in london i guess they just dont care who they stamp on even i it comes to there end of life. But even know my friend wasnt that good sorry john lol these guys are really good i really ind the reggae guys rap so wicked and he’s gd take it from a fellow rapper myself. He may be white but his rhymes are tight. The singer is the best of all they cant even say he’s bad his voice is wicked man and it does sound like usher your awseome dude keep it up the public is on ya side “word dog”
Wow this is amazing the singer is so dam hott and i really lyk these 2 style with the smooth hunky singer doing the chorus and the cool reggaish rapper doing the jamacian style rap he sounds like sean paul and slightly like p.diddy but the singer is really handsome i would also like to say he is so much talented than all the people that have been on the show in the past crist some of the people ive heard this year and there trying to make these guys look bad when there actually really good xoxox
