Ireland declares eoghan quigg potato day
Ireland declares eoghan quigg potato day
Many x factor fans from northern Ireland have flooded our website with complaints that x factor promoters are charging an astonishing £31.50 to see the x factor live tour 2009.
So we’re exclusively revealing how you can see eoghan Quigg for free.
Go to your nearest Co Op, Sainsbury or TESCO.
Go to the fruit and vegetable aisle in the supermarket and pick up a potato. Draw a big grin on it with a felt tip pen and stick some ginger cat hair on the top.
This will be just like looking at the real thing and having your very own, lifelike eoghan Quigg for free.
Thousands of fans are lining up to be the first to see the x factor live tour which kicks off in February in Aberdeen. Taking in 25 shows across the country.
But promoters are expressing caution that ticket sales may be effected due to this year’s x factor being the most controversial series, laden with allegations of vote rigging, conspiracy by judges to promote their own protégés with the best song choices, and not least, the bitter rumours of sex tapes and drugs.
After one of the most exciting finales of recent years, Alexandra burke was crowned as this year’s winner, only to see her reign already marred by shock newspaper stories of infidelity and husband stealing.
The tickets are priced at £28.50 except northern Ireland where they are £31.50. One disgruntled girl from Belfast, Kylie Minogue (no relation to the squid headed sister of x factor judge Danii Minogue) told us “I spent around £72 on phone calls speed dial voting for Oeghan Quigg. It’s a rip off they are charging us more than the rest of the UK to see him”
I couldn’t agree more with Miss Kylie. £31.50 is a lot of money to see a chubby faced boy with a dead ginger cat on his head and a woman who cries at every opportunity and steals other people’s husbands. If I wanted to see that for free, I could take a walk to our local unemployment office any day of the week, especially on Fridays when they hand out the social fund giro cheques to all the pikeys, for their weekend booze and cigarette supplies.

for all the cheating that was blatantly done to save diana vickers the fate of being booted off the show, and the wonderful talent of laura white and rachel hylton that had to make way for this girl living on borrowed time. It was fitting to see diana vickers leave the show, but I would have preferred to see alexandra burke face rachel hylton or laura white in the finals.
jls have no chance to win, neither does eoghan quigg, so it looks like instead of a hard song for alexandra burke next week, she will go with something that showcases her strong talents.
In a special summary of this season on the x factor, we have been contacted by last years girls group HOPE member sisi jghalef.
Rob Tencer interviewed sisi jghalef, and sisi jghalef answered in her own words and emails back.
Q: What do you think of the new judge Cheryl Cole?
Hi rob! Thanx 4 the opportunity! Well where do i start? This years x factor certainly had me gripped with the new judge cheryl cole. cheryl coles feisty and realism is just what the show needed as the panel of simon cowell and the arse lickers was lookin like a bunch of old battle axes judging a karaoke contest that was last year lol!
In fact i think the only judge who has any balls 2 stand up 2 simon cowell is cheryl cole. With her gordie working class background, sassy personality and experience in reality t.v stardom, she is by far the best judge 2 date!
Q: Why such kind words for cheryl cole? Has she ever helped you, or said something nice about you?
No cheryls neva helped me but i met her husband an he said he had liked me so i feel bad slaggin her off! But her accent yuk! And she thinks shes got a clue about vocal range and pitch and shes hardly mariah carey but i do really like her lol! The whole of the u.k will hate me if i slag her off! But like her and danni i think there not the best of singers/songwriters so what do they know? But she is a great talent spotter, her groups were amazing! Don’t print the gordie accent thing, the whole of northern england will h8 me lol! Fuck em!
Q: What did you think of the way that the show is bullying Dannii Minogue?
It was good 2 c my old friend danni minogue, but i couldn’t understand why simon cowell and the media were bulling her? (sobbing uncontrollably) Leave danni alone lol!
Q: how much do you hate Louis Walsh? Do you think his job is in jeopardy?
And poor louis walsh looks like a lap dog that does anything 2 hang on 2 his job including bum sucking simon cowell so much i’m embarassed 4 him!
Q: What do you think of simon cowell this year?
as for simon he looks as plastic as he is fake and is desperate 2 hang on 2 his youthful “good looks”! What a show its been!
Q: do you think the show is fixed? Do you think they have already decided the winner?
With austin drage and laura white being voted off in the early stages i cant help but think the show is a fix! As i was involved last year, i knew from day 1, that i was to make it to the live show, and that as long as we sang in tune, we would sail through! The fact that hope were in the bottom 2 every week but were miracoulsly saved each week by simon cowell and his cronies was a clear indication that the girls were suppose 2 win. Had i have still been there, they probably would of!
Q: What do you think of JLS and Girlband?
What really made me laugh was the boy and girl group they put together ha ha ha! No looks, No talent, no personality, no x factor lmao What a joke!
Then we come 2 the groups, girlband what a joke, ridiculous! Ur neva gonna find another sisi jghalef, so get over it! And the same for the other girls in bad lashes. And then we have the 4 wimps in wifebeaters! I want to like them i really do, but there just like 4 divs (idiots) who need 2 grow some balls! Not my cuppa tea, the facial expressions and the britney spears rendition had me in stitches! Grow up boys, we want a man band lol!
Q: What did you think of Rachel Hylton on the x factor? Any similarities between you and her?
Then there was rachel hylton, wow what a woman! Drugs, jail, 5 kids and now has a no 1 single, really should inspire those who are on the wrong path that they 2 can follow their dreams and realize there is more 2 life, than street life! Her voice is amazing even though she did seem 2 crack under the pressure in the final shows. Which leads me 2 believe my conspiracy theories that its a fix and that some contestants are given shitty songs 2 sing an phone lines are fix as with rhydian last year! Then again they are singing live which must be nerve wracking and i admire there courage.
Q: what did you think of Austin Drage, Eoghan Quigg and Danial Evans?
From simon’s category i can only remember austin drage. Lovely bloke who i remember from boot camp last year. Austin Drage has an amazing voice so why was he voted off so early? Maybe to make way for simon’s protege eoghan or the fact that a guy crying his eyes out every 5 minutes is so un sexy! Grow sum balls u wimp!
As for eoghan quigg, I love him, I love his personality and voice and he has really kept it together. better than the old bloke, whats his name again daniel evans? Anyway, another crooner slips through the net, mind u i didn’t think much of the 25s an over so the people they picked were probably the best they had 2 work with!
Q: What did you think of Ruth Lorenzo?
Ruth Lorenzo, I didnt quite get her at first, but shes grown on me even through her shouty naslie performances i thought she had a great personality and was sad 2 see her go!
Q: What did you think about Britney Spears mime performance on the x factor live show?
Britney on the other hand proved, though i love her, u need absolutely no vocal talent at all. All you need is some one 2 rain on you and your a superstar! What really made me laugh was her introduction, which something along the lines of britney spears performs now! lol, not live, now lol! I was pissin myself! Great way 2 show someone with x factor, someone who cant sing live, or even mime well and looks so spaced out like shes sniffed a gram of coke! What a joke! and the way they hyped her up as tho she was better than mariah carey is an insult, mariah carey should boycott all of simon cowell’s shows!
Q: what did you think of laura white? Did you think it was horrible that diana vickers didn’t even have to sing for laura white to be kicked off the show?
As for the laura white and her situation. what moron would send laura white home over the possessed spanish she devil ruth lorenzo? Louis walsh that’s who! I think the whole situation was Again rigged with simon lookin fiercly at louis like you’ll be replaced by tomorrow if you let ruth lorenzo go!
Q: what do you think of diana vickers and her chances to win the x factor?
Which brings me 2 diana! The yodling yorkshire terrier is funny 2 watch, her hands are like another being performing With her lol! But i like her unique quirky style, even if the hand thing is a bit scary!
Q: what do you think of alexandra burke and her chances to win the x factor?
And last but not least is alexandra burke, i cant fault her. She is my favourite by far, she can sing, dance and act! Surely a person can’t be that nice all the time can they? Maybe i’m just a bitch, but it would be nice 2 see her pissed off or angry?! She seems like shes holding back another side 2 her and if i hear her declare her undying love for cheryl cole one more time i’ll b sick! I much preferred the beef with danni minogue and the rotweiler, but i am a drama queen! So yeah, alexandra burke should win
Q: do eoghan quigg or diana vickers have a chance to win the x factor?
but i think eoghan quigg or whateva his name is, or diana vickers will win this year even though i see no star quality in any of them except alexandra burke! Nether the lest i wish them all the best as they seek fame and fortune and success! And see how long it takes for us 2 forget about them!
Fix fix fix! I’ve been there, i know what i’m talking about! Simon himself said diana will win so ther u go! Make her sit it out in mariah week how convenient would they have done the same 4 laura? Obviously not!? They managed 2 get most of the best singers and potential winners 2 make it easier 4 heidi hi the yodeler 2 make the finals! These shows are all full of shit an they probably realized laura would be harder 2 control than the others! Shame but at least she has the recognition now, and i’m sure she got a record deal out of it!
Q: What are you up to Sisi Jghalef? We could never forget about you!
Have you been arrested lately? Did someone get you mad? Are you like the incredible hulk?, For real, have you used your wonderful singing voice, and beautiful good looks to get any recording deals?
I have just finished singing alongside a huge grammy award winning artist, after they realized my potential, and have made a dream come true for me!
I really feel that my being axed is a blessing in disguise and has made me more determined and has allowed me to retain my creative credibility which is very important to me as an artist.!
All of the people who don’t make it as the winner of the x factor or any singing or dancing show should know, that your dreams don’t end when you are no longer on the show.
Thank u so much rob tencer!
Sisi will be back next week, with her summary of todays live show. We HOPE to get her on video.
our exclusive x factor insider has revealed to us that the winner has already been chosen by the x factor producers / simon cowell and the winner will be diana vickers.
alexandra burke has been given enough exposure to get the recording contract she much deserves, so not to feel to sorry for her.
Eoghan Quigg is so young, that he will have time to develop his talent and his star personna.
JLS were never taken seriously as having any chance.
Laura White was cheated, but had enough exposure to also get a recording contract.
Rachel Hylton had the most hurdles in her way, but really shined at the end, and will probably get the much coveted recording contract.
The lesson that x factor guest mime britney “train wreck” spears has given to x factor women like diana vickers, hanna bradbeer, laura white, alexandra burke, rachel hylton and ruth lorenzo is you don’t need vocal talent to become an international superstar. Its all in the packaging.
The mime britney spears who was last seen not miming was long ago. The studio can make an average singer sound great, or at least good enough to be a multi million selling song.
Even danni minogue could be a multi million selling artist if she had a hit song writer and a great producer like mutt lange who produced shania twain and groups like the corrs. The producer develops the singers sound.
Look at cheryl “tramp stamp” cole and her overly produced songs and proven hit making writers. Do you think she would have a career without the production machine? I didn’t either.
In the states, paula abdul (the dancer) and even jennifer lopez (the dancer) are very average singers that had the production team behind them.
Now going back to britney the mime and her lesson.
Which of the girls have a marketable look? Diana vickers barefoot 17 year old and maybe laura white. If you covered hanna bradbeers forehead, she could also have the marketable look needed.
Youth is a very big factor, so phoebe brown from last season could also be brought in to create the next britney the mime.
please don’t forget that britney the mime was trained at the same place as miley cyrus - disney, and that she was not a natural talent. Also keep in mind that dancing well takes away a great deal of attention of a lack of singing abilities.
Rob Tencer - bringing you the truth, which does not have to hurt. It just needs to be brought out. A couple of rumours and gossip only help.
diana vickers might finally be kicked off the show for a lacluster performance. its to bad that laura white’s star couldn’t shine as long as the dirty footed cheating theif diana vickers. Even racheh hylton would have had another week to shine, and bully people around.
Amongst the thousands of comments we receive at thexfactor fan site, none have the voracity or tone or thought that go into them as much as our favourite comment writer tony montana.
Should jls have gone through or should the mary j. blige-esque singer rachel hylton have been given another week to shine? Tony, tells it from the heart, with style:
This song can only be described as having a Jumbo Jet taking off vocal range. Rachel Hylton however, seemd to push it into Space Shuttle territory. Now don’t get me wrong - every week I have watched, I have practically hurled stuff at the TV screen - I mean, how many more Mary J Bilge treats can one girl offer us in one series of a programme?
Despite Rachel’s valiant efforts week after week to convince us that she isn’t the loud mouthed, pushy, argumentative ex drug addict with an explosive temper she used to be, despite her ever changing appearance from short Masey Gray type hair to the more recent Gabriel-esgue hairdo, the British public have waved goodbye to this champion of female power surge singing.
In a sense, I’m kind of glad, becaue at least the ornaments in my room won’t vibrate or implode in the future. Yes, she can belt them out, but unfortunately, her previous X Factor appearances can only be described as ‘fog-horn-esgque’ performances. Struggling to find the right song to sing, her mentor, Danni ‘Stick Insect’ Minogue pushed her week after week to be the new voice of Black Britain, a kind of Mary J Blige mixed with the innadequate dance steps of a constipated penguin combined with the thrusting vocal volume of Shirley Bassey.
Who could ever forget that memorably insane version of Michael Jackson’s ‘Dirty Diana’ sood on top of the piano with a large Belisha Beacon sized microphone? Truly and utterly disastrous. The most exciting part, of the whole sorry event, were the two half naked motorbike riders sat there pretending to curve and ride around while she was shrieking and spoiling the song. The whole thing looked ridiculous. I wanted someone to hurl her onto the back of the motorbikes and ride her off at high speed, providing some instant relief for audience and viewer alike.
Rachel was told by Simon Cowell “We’re here again” as she faced the sing offs. Third time there, but perhaps no one has actually twigged at that point, that the public just don’t get her. Not once, has she provided enough smoothness or control to that megaphone voice of hers, to show she can actually sing, rather than shout out the lyrics. Week after week, she was turned out in awful outifits that would most likely be on the ‘reduced’ rack at your local cancer charity shop, week after week she was told “you just haven’t got it”, week after week she returned like the Jehova’s Witnesses, who just wouldn’t take no for an answer. Each week, I yelled even louder at the television screen for her to be booted off.
However, I have to say, that last night in the sing off, she was marvellous for that huge soaring “I’m telling you” song - miles more superior in quality, tone and delivery than the awful drunken karaoke version of ‘Stand By Me’ by the JLS boys - who have clearly become a mere shadow backing group of “uhm-ahs-doowaps” and “yeahs” for the munchkin sized one, who seems to be taking over the lead singing with an alarming frequency. Maybe sensing the boy contestants are increasingly under threat from the ubiquitous Geordie Primani Princess Cheryl Cole’s onslaught of dull, dreary females, he’s striking up a bid to split from JLS, leaving them as just ‘L&S’ and bounding forward as a solitary ‘J’, seeking to scoop up the X Factor crown himself?
Rachel’s performance was soulful, intense, emotionally charged, genuine and sincere. Perhaps she detected the writing was on the wall for her departure. Perhaps it was because Leona Lewis was on the show a few weeks back, stamping her territory as the only British foghorn voice of the moment. Another Whitney ‘crack-whore’ Heuston or ‘Mariah screecher Carey’ we don’t need thank you very much. I mean, they’re OK for smoochy emotionally charged, alcohol fuelled Essex chav weddings, but not your daily commute to work on your ipod.
Throughout the auditions, we had specimen after specimen going for the big shouty notes, the warbling “Woah-a-oh-a-oh-oh-woahawoho” vibrating notes, line after line of Duffy/Winehouse moaners and girls who wanted to explode with raw emotion. I can see that Leona Lewis’ reign as the big chord wondergirl could have been threatened by Miss Hylton’s 150 decibel vocal chords. There simply aren’t enough earplugs in the chemists of Britain to save us from the assault on the airwaves that would have taken place with the two of them let loose in some warped, ‘Oasis Vs Blur’ showdown - but only this time with power ballads and sequins.
JLS murdered their song, especially the ’suicidal’ part that they transposed into a 1950’s shoowap-de-do-wah eruption. An aural treat, I’m not likely to forget for a while. But, Rachel deserved to stay last night if indeed it was based upon ’strength of performance’ as the cardboard cutout, self promoting judges continually state. last night, little Twiglet Minogue indeed gained her vengeance, for all the fighting and disagreements between her and Rachel over the past few weeks’ song choices.
I don’t think she will be shedding any tears for rachel - unlike the fake crocodile tears she blubbed out over Lou-Lou Walshe’s supposed insensitivity. Oh yeah, so upset and full of tears her thick caked on, industrial strength mascara refused to budge - now I would have loved to have seen her sat there with it streaked all over her face, like an Antipodean rocker - less Alice Springs more like Alice Cooper.
So goodbye Rachel. You came, you saw, you conked out. At least I can turn the TV volume up next Saturday without fearing my eardrums are going to bleed anymore.
The best part of rachel hylton’s last song I Am Telling You I Am Not Going, from Dreamgirls was that we didn’t have to hear another take that song. Instead, rachel hylton treated us to a song sung by great singers like jennifer holiday and jennifer hudson and even whitney houston has sung this song. I have picked a few great and not so great versions for your amusement.
if there was ever a time to shine, rachel hylton proved she could outshine jls, even though they were much more loved by the fans. if this is about singing, then we are happy that rachel hylton finally proved she can sing. louis walsh and cheryl TRAMP STAMP cole are not judging this based on singing ability, and vote for pure sex appeal. Simon Cowell votes for popularity, so he has to choose jls.
dannii minogue is the only x factor judge to base the performance on singing ability. we love you dannii minogue for staying true to singing ability, but it proved you are all alone.
will fertility drug abusing momma rachel hylton see her last sight of day on this weeks x factor live show, or will she live another week to meet britney spears?
for a lady who appears to boss everyone around the x factor house, “rule the world” appears to be a fitting song for her.
will people be cheering for her departure, or that they really liked her? I think they were just scared of her.
