James Arthur.......X Factor

[Paul22118]

I do not have a favourite to win but do have a favourite to lose. I do not enjoy James Arthur, I don't get him but he keeps on getting through.
Where am I wrong? Is he a brilliant performer when heard live? Has he a magnetic persnality? What am I not getting?

Who the hell is voting for Christopehr Baloney?



Listen Prudes..........................I was spot on about the jungle winner
Another 200 plus quid well spent on voting for Chris methinks

Simple Simon will not be very happy about one of the finalists

Whoever wins, give them a year in the spotlight then they sell their DVDs on QVC the shopping channel. I think JLS (who didn't win) have had the most success.

Well Mick it has to be someone warped so it might as well be you :-)
What do you get out of it anyway?

[dotty.]

no one direction are massive in america and are by far the biggest cowell machine success

[Paul22118]

Can't believe it. James is in the final. Tell me he is not going to be the winner.........

[Prudie]

You can't believe that but you can believe Christopher is?

I am also glad it's not only me, I don't see how the judges can think he is so wonderful, I think it may be an age thing with us oldies not 'getting' him

[lankeela]

Case of the Emperors New Clothes - someone must have said he is good and the others are following. I really don't get him, there are better buskers down the underground stations. And more cheerful. Jahmene is my favourite although I did enjoy Rylan and think he should be our Eurovision entry.

Well,I'm an oldie,and I certainly 'get' James Arthur more than Maloney Baloney-who I can't stand.
I suspect J.A. comes across as 'moody',when he's actually somewhat uncomfortable with being in the spotlight. I'm sure as time passes he will gradually relax.

Pasta - he didnt seem uncomfortable signing 'great t*ts' across a girls chest the other day, appears to be loving the fame.
