So she didn't make it. It was probably inevitable. She had a bit of a comeback but the sickness and above all the mad insanity and vitriol of the tweenies rooting for other acts seem to have taken the geist out of her. And wee Eoghan was playing game after game with her, crumbling her down. Now he's after Alex of course.
Enough of these dumb talent shows. Nobody really cares anyway. Simon said it all two years ago: Leona Lewis was the only person up to then who'd had any real talent anyway. And since then it's been your typical washout. Until this year.
Diana is not a technical singer like Leona. She does a lot of fancy stuff with her voice but she doesn't have a 'big' voice and she knows it.
But she's also the most original artist ever seen on any of these shows - including Leona. Brutalising this girl as people have done is unconscionable.
Gary Barlow wants to sign her. OK Gary. Do it. Simon says 'no thank you I can sign her' to Gary. So OK Simon. They you sign her. But one of you sign her. Now. And do the smart thing whoever wins her: hire on Cheryl Cole as her manager and mentor.
Cheryl Cole's got the X Factor.
