It’s official – the X Factor is a total farce. Tonight’s results show ended with Lucie and Jedward in the bottom two.
Lucie’s performance of “One Moment in Time” was spirited, whilst John and Edward’s rendition of Robbie Williams’ “Rock DJ” – whilst still wearing last night’s Ghost Busters costumes – resembled a sixth form karaoke night.
Simon Cowell, who for weeks has viciously slated Jedward – had only to give a thumbs down and the agony would have ended. But he chose once again to ‘let the audience decide’, letting any final vestige of credibility slip away. This despite both Cowell and Louis Walsh insisting last night the X Factor was a singing contest!
The lowest number of votes went to Lucie, whom last night the judges pronounced was “destined for the final”.
And Jedward survive to annoy the nation once again.
