Girls:
Katie - I still really like her. She's not a "plant" - she's just a girl who got lucky and got a record contract. After all, they've all been trying to hit it big, so it's not suprising that every now and then they get a contestant who's had a bite. She's a bit dramatic, but I don't mind it too much.
Cher - Cannot stand her and her stupid face. But I think she'll do well.
Rebecca - I see the Norah Jones comparison, but I hate Norah Jones's voice, so I'm not the least bit interested in listening to Rebecca. Boooo-ring.
Boys:
Aiden - Adore him. He has to win. I love his twitchiness!!
Matt - He's very good but a little dull for me. Still he'll do really well.
Nicolo - WTF?? Big mistake on Dannii's part.
Over 28s:
Mary - She's great. She won't win, but she'll do well. I don't think anyone could possibly dislike her.
Storm - I thought I couldn't hate him more ... and then I saw the new red hair. God, he's absolutely loathesome.
John - I have no idea who he is. I have no recollection of seeing or hearing him perform. He's the first to go. No question.
Groups:
New Direction - Cute but meh. But I'm not really a boy band fan.
FYD - Ditto
Belle Ami - Cute but meh. But I'm not really a girl band fan. Having said that, they're the only group I have any memory of, so I suppose that makes them better than the other two in my book. They definitely outperformed Husstle (my previous fave) at Louis's "home".
First to go: John. Who?
If there's a wildcard, I think it will/should be Gamu. She was good.
