X Factor: Louis Walsh Thinks Finalists Are Dull!
Louis Walsh is certainly not getting his dream X Factor final as he believes neither of the finalist have the ‘X Factor’.
Speaking exclusively to the News Of The World Louis stated:
“Leona hasn’t got a great personality. She’s very, very shy and very normal. Female stars have to have that X factor, otherwise it can hold them back.”
He then shared his thoughts on Ray Quinn saying:
“He has the likeability factor, the mums are voting for him, but I don’t think he’ll actually sell records. He’ll always work, but I think he’s more likely to be in musicals.”
“Sharon has said before he reminds her of a panto boy and I have to say I can see it too.”

who cares what louie thinks?! he obviously doesnt know music as he really thought the mac donald brothers could have won it.they were good but shoudnt have stayed in the competition as long as they did. he is just gutted and jealous that the two finalists are simons contestants and therefore to make him feel abit better he has to be rude and say unnecessary comments.good luck to both leona and ray as they both deserve to be in the final!! i will most definately be voting for ray to win though!!

I absolutely agree with you about Louis - he is a pathetic weasle of a man
But although I think Ray may win, I think Leona should

In many ways this from Louis is true, but I also think it is tainted as none of his acts were through to the semi final and the final. Sour grapes I think has led to this.
Do we really care now what he thinks or any of them it has been down to the viewers vote for a couple of weeks, has it not?
The viewers vote should have counted from heat one not that of the judges.

Thats completely opposite to the comments he gave on their songs.
Misquoted again maybe?
How is this a News of the world Exclusive when its in several other papers as well?

Totally agree with Maureen,I cant see why the acts the viewers vote as last 2 just dont have their lines held, then while singing again re open the lines and who comes last after that with the viewers goes, if there really needs to be a showdown sing off again. Personally I like Louis,He’s put his money where his mouth is with ETON ROAD and he admitted he should have put them thhrough in the first place,you dont get that from S Cowell or Sharon for that matter, to me she sent her best act home 3 years in a row, this years being JONATHAN.Certainly though the viewers as Maureen says should decide who goes out,I know one thing I’d never believe Eton Road were ever last,but then we never get told who was last with the public do we.Rod.

How do we know if the results are true or accurate. It would be a good idea to have an outside company handling incoming votes (maybe they do, does anyone know how it works?) and a running tally be shown in the corner of the screen as the votes come in. After all it is public money we are talking about. Let the public see where there money is going, each step of the way.
Louis raved about Leona as having the X factor and being a winner so either the reports are inaccurate or Louis Walsh is losing it.

Evelyn,its Simons show, no we have never been told how our votes are received or collated, as its Simons show, there are some things the people connected with it can get away with re comments but Simon demands loyalty in the end with his ‘little’ words he has with people,I think Louis rates Leonas voice, who doesnt but feels she has little stage presence but from week 3 Simon started giving her a standing applause after she sang then expected the other 2 to do so, As in other jobs Sharon and Louis are employed to the x factor and if they wish to continue have to toe certain lines of Simons.More so this yaer both have had their digs outside of x factor when talking to others though.You are right Evelyn ‘our’ votes should be received and collected by independent people or at least overseen by some,I wouldnt trust Simon Cowell with anything of my interests and I do think a lot of people have questioned the x factor ’system’ this year. All Simon has wanted from week 2 was a Leona win, he is like a man possessed to achieve that.Rod.

Thank you Rod. I like Simon and have found him a very fair person and more controlled then either Sharon or Louis who have disruptively stood up to him during the X factor to the discomfit of both contestants and viewers. Leona has an amazing voice, phenominal and trully deserves to win. Her stage prescence is refreshingly different and she comes over as an all round winner.
I was not referring only to the X factor results being fairly and openly handled but across the board including other shows such as, Strictly come dancing, Cirque de Celbrite. Big Brother and all such shows.
