X Factor Rule Breaking….Again!

Earlier today they were reports of two more X Factor contestants who could be disqualified for breaking the rules, the same as Avenue were.

According to some newspapers, the Producers on the X Factor have investigated links between Eton Road and Ray Quinn with an agent.

Avenue have already been thrown out of the contest, as we saw on Saturday after it was discovered they already had a management contract, breaking X Factor rules.

Now the other two acts have been discovered on the website of a Liverpool agency. It said the group was formed through audition in April and there was also a page about Ray Quinn. The page boasted: “He’s been selected for the boot camp, watch this space.”

Eton Road: X Factor Contestants

I can imagine Ray Quinn does have a management contract, but would that not be for his acting rather than singing ?( he used to be in Brookside, played little Anthony, who was bullied)

On This Morning, today, Fern Britain denied the claims as true.

If it is true, this is making a farce of the show really. It’s supposed to be all about finding contestants who have never been given a big break, never been given that chance to shine, and to already have a management contract is wrong.

Then this afternoon, the news changed!

Later this afternoon, it was then confirmed by ITV, therefore ending the speculation, that they will not be asked to leave the XF.

It seems Ray Quinn has said that his deal with the agency had expired earlier in the year. He said he was not in a deal at the moment and the agency boss got him little bits on shows, which was more to do with his acting side. He says he has grown up knowing her and she’s a lovely person .

And it turns out that Eton Road, meanwhile, had been offered – but refused – a management deal by the same agency as Ray Quinn ‘used’ to belong to. James had apparently auditioned as a solo artist for The X Factor already, explained Eton Roads David. So it seems they said ‘thanks, but they would rather just go for it themselves’.

I hope the reports of them now NOT being disqualified are indeed true as it would be a tragedy if Ray and Eton Road get thrown off the show, they have so much to offer. Both Eton Road and Ray has been through the mill a bit more then the rest of the contestants. If you remember he was told he was not in Simons final 7 and he was devastated. Then Simon decided he had made a mistake and asked producers to change it to 8 instead of 7 contestants. So Ray was given another chance, much to his relief. Then he had a battle on his hands when Simon could not decide between Shaky Shaun and Ray. I am pleased he choose Ray as there was no way Shaun could have coped with a live tv show.

Eton Road were also told they had not made the final 4 acts, as Louis had picked Avenue. Then, as we all know, it came to light that Avenue had already got a management contract, and so were disqualified, allowing Louis to bring Eton Road back into the show.

So, a great sigh of relief all round for these two acts I think! And it looks like we are all set for the 12 acts to perform live for the first time this Saturday.

So much gossip today! First they will be thrown out, next second they wont, so who knows what gossip tomorrow will bring from the X factor!

    Reply to the ad about ray already having a contract.

    Ray’s contract was not ended earlier in the year as he quoted, but the agency was forced to end his contract just three weeks ago under pressure from the show so that he was not disqualified, and although ray has quoted what “a lovely person” this lady is..talk is cheap ray..shame you didnt have the qualitites of a true star and spoke to the lady in question yourself as you wouldnt be were you are today without her help.

  15. Ella says:

    omg i luv ray and i rli want him to win! but if he doesn’t i want leona. i fort avenue were da best band on there and i was well upset they got disqualified. but ray 2 win! xxxxx

  16. Natalieee says:

    Eton Road to win because theyre fabulous and beautifull!
    I’m in love with Anthony cos he is so gorgeous and unique

  17. ROD BELL. says:

    IF THERE’S JUSTICE, ETON ROAD should win, Ray did well on Saturday but since Simon only concentrates on LEONA for some reason he mentors Ray in a very bad way by giving him dire songs to sing, so RAY cant win as Simon IS WORKING HIS HARDEST only TO SEE leona WIN. ROD,Newcastle

  18. beth says:

    ANTHONY ya sooooo boss !!!

  19. small says:

    Ha ha ha.
    Funny how many cousins (Correct spelling) Ray has suddenly got. And people who used to go dancing with him.
    Very Believable.

    In fact, he’s my sisters husbands girlfriends Mums dogs brothers old next door neighbour, so I know him mroe than anyone.

    Grow up everyone.

    Ta.

    X FACTOR IZ A FIX !!!!

    X FACTOR IZ A FIX !!!!
    i cant believe Ben when home last night, he was CLEARLY the best. Leona doesnt deserve 2 win because she has stayed in her safe zone each week and hasnt tryed anything different. And Ray doesnt deserve to win because his style of music is aimed at old ppl and he doesnt have a recording voice. Ben however, defenetly deserved to win. . He performed to his best every week and had the most potential in the music world, he had a great personallity, style and voice. Ben had x factor.

  23. ROD BELL says:

    Im sad Bens gone too Amanda, I was also surprised as his performances were near likely his best tonight.Rod,

  24. nadine says:

    Leona has a fantastic voice. She did. All the final 12 deserved it, actually. People denying that Leona has a good voice are usually silly little school girls with a Raymond Quinn obsession. I voted for Ben, Ray and the MicMacs but could appreciate that the other acts were also good.

    And to the person saying that Rays’ songs are aimed at old people – swing is for everyone. I’m 18 and The Way You Look Tonight by Frank Sinatra is my favourite all time song. It’s so romantic. I was scared when Ray sang it, I thought that if he messed it up it’d put me off (which has happened with other songs I’ve liked and have been covered by others).

    He didn’t, though ^_^ I liked his version. He did it justice!

  29. Zoe Thacker says:

    Ray has a fantastic voice because he can do diffrent sorts of singing and Leona can only do 1 sort all the time i luv u so much that i will buy your album and i have stuck pics of you all over my bedroom wall luv you so much luv from Zoe Thacker
