X Factor 2009: Judges categories announced!

Tonight’s X Factor was fun filled and excitement packed. Thankfully, we now we know who our final 24 are and what categories the judges got.
You can find out who the final 24 are here and keep reading for the judges allocations.
* Over 25’s: Simon Cowell – they ran to him like he was Jesus, but by the end of the series, he still won’t know their names.
* Under 25 Boys: Cheryl Cole – there was lots of gushing about how wonderful Cheryl is. But she doles out hugs like they were Smarties, so no wonder the boys are ecstatic.
* Groups: Louis Walsh – hilariously, boy band mastermind Louis has never won the show with a group. The groups pretended to be excited, but started secretly filling in application forms for Top Shop.
* Under 25 Girls: Dannii Minogue – the girls were ecstatic – if they play their cards right, they get to meet Kylie!!! But Dannii’s won it once before with chart wunderkind Leon Jackson, so the girls are all in good hands! Yay!


… Moving onto the over 25’s, it was Simon Cowell’s remark on hearing that he had got the job of mentoring them, “this could be a really good year for me , err I mean for them”, that leads me to suspect that there are going to be some clashes with his 6 stars. They’re already set in their ways at over 25, and if they don’t work with Cowell, he’ll be quick to talk them down in the shows. … Lucie Jones, an 18 year old student, is the girl I’d tip to top this category, and possibly the whole show
