X Factor: Wham! / George Michael Theme For This Week

X Factor Logo

Simon Cowell has finally settled on a theme for this week’s X Factor show. Louis Walsh was turning on Dublin’s Christmas lights tonight, when he confirmed to a local radio station that the theme would be Wham! and George Michael week.

Today he also told Sky News:

“The theme this week has changed a few times, first it was Elton John, then it was The Beatles but now it’s going to be George Michael and Wham!”

Yesterday Brian Friedman complained that Simon had changed the theme six times before settling on one. If Louis is right, one has to ask if Simon wrestled with the decision for so long, why didn’t he choose a decent and perhaps even current theme.

A source told The Sun: “The theme has only just been decided which means less rehearsal time. Handily for the twins it wasn’t Elton John week or they may have struggled.”

Is anyone else fed up with the acts singing the songs of yesteryear? I thought we were looking for a current and marketable act here.

As always, leave your song suggestions below. I will be shocked if the the twins don’t attempt the Wham! rap.

    Louis should get Jedward to perform the Wham!/Daft Punk mashup.

    … if you average the release years of Wham! Rap (1983) and Around the World (1997) you are barely into the 90s. ;)
