JLS - X Factor 2008

This week the contestants had a “date night” in the house. Ohhhhhh how romantic!

So eight girls and eight boys from the house, all dressed up in their best frocks and joined each other for a romantic meal, well a delivery of free Nando’s chicken, courtesy of JLS new free Nando’s card.

Rachel Hylton didn’t have a partner….I wonder if she was invited to Date Night?

The romantic meal had the contestants paired up as follows:

Ruth Lorenzo and Ortise from JLS

Diana Vickers and Eoghan Quigg

Phoebe from GirlBand and Scott Bruton

Alexandra Burke and Marvin from JLS

Aston from JLS and Marissa from GirlBand

Laura White and Austin Drage

Tita from GirlBand and JB from JLS

Layla from GirlBand and Daniel Evans

The meal came about after JLS, under instruction from Creative Director Brian Friedman, were told that they needed to learn to “flirt” with the girls, as they have eight female dancers on stage with them this week, so to get some “flirting training” in they arranged “date night” in the house. Although by the end of the night none of them managed any “Romeo moments” with any of the ladies in the house, much to their disappointment, especially Ortise who tried all his moves to impress the “Spanish goddess” Ruth Lorenzo to no avail!
