This is one of those episodes where they show you all the auditions and then tease the results out until next day. So we don't know if Danyl Johnson, Miss Frank (Graziella Affinita) or Jamie Archer got through.

I'll assume you don't have any X Factor spoilers at this stage and take you through what happened on tonight's episode. First off, there's 24 contestants left who are listed below.

The only change from last week's line up is Trucolorz out for Harmony Hood. Trucolorz got kicked out for lying on their application form. One of the girls in Trucolorz was only 15 so perhaps we'll see them next year as they seemed pretty good. Harmony Hood have been thrown a lifeline but I doubt they'll get through since they're absolutely ghastly.

Ok so we started this round of X Factor 2009 with Cheryl Cole's boys. She had taken them to Marrakesh in Morocco and we were treated them all walking around the area and getting to know the locals. Joseph McElderry was up first and he sang Sorry Seems to be the Hardest Word by Elton John. Joseph McElderry seemed a bit nervous but his audition was pretty good. Will Young was the guest judge in to help out Cheryl Cole and he seemed to be impressed. Lloyd Daniels overdid it a bit and was singing far too loud for me his voice was getting a bit distorted on the mic. He sang I'm Yours by Jason Mraz. Pretty average audition by Lloyd Daniels. The weird pop opera singer Daniel Fox was up next singing I can't live by Mariah Carrey. Daniel Fox has such a powerful voice but I'm not sure if his audition was that great. He seemed to be overdoing it a bit like a lot of the guys out there. Ethan Boroian the man from Chicago was up next singing Elton John's I guess that's why they call it the blues. I think Will Young was a fan of his looks more than his singing. Ethan Boroian was pretty average he seems to be quite confident in himself and so felt he didn't have to push it too much. Duane Lamonte followed Ethan Boroian singing Closer by Ne Yo and I thought he was excellent. Will Young also seemed to be impressed by Duane Lamonte. Rikki Loney was last to go for the boys. How the hell did Rikki Loney make it this far? He was back with his silly little hat on again and I think he sang You've Got a Friend by Carole King. To be honest I was too annoyed by his his hat and outfit to really pay attention. I really don't like Rikki Loney's voice either.

The X Factor auditions continued with the absolutely awful groups, Miss Frank aside. Guest judge for Louis Walsh's groups was Ronan Keating who is definitely start to look his age. Ronan Keating also had some weird thing going on with his hair, a sort of comb over effect perhaps trying to hide a bald spot? I don't know to be honest. Anyway Project A were up first singing What's Up by 4 Non Blondes. Was it any coincidence that Lord of the Rings was on the other channel at the same time these hobbits were destroying this song. I'm not a fan of Project A. Ronan Keating pointed out that they didn't have any chemistry which seemed to be a bit of a theme. My favourite group of all time Kandy Rain followed. Apparently they've all be outed this week for being strippers or work as porn stars some crap like that. I don't care as any controversy will just mean that I have to hear about Kandy Rain all the more. They sang Paparazzi by Lady Gaga which was just a complete disaster. Please don't put them through Louis. De-Tour, I can't even remember these guys. They had some strange matching white t shirt brace combination going on it didn't do them any favours. Ronan Keating said De-Tour's harmonies were terrible and he was right. De-Tour sang Tiny dancer by Elton John and were rotten. The groups are absolutely awful. I wish they'd put Miss Frank through then a few more boys or some from the over 25's section. Harmony Hood seriously where to start with this lot. They sang Never Can Say Goodbye which is an original of the Jackson 5. They were pretty terrible with Ronan Keating saying Harmony Hood just didn't work. I also think they're too ugly to be pop stars but that's just me. Miss Frank! Save us from this group mediocrity. We all know Graziella Affinita run's this group which is not to take anything away from Shar Alexandra and Shaniece Davis. They both have fantastic voices too it just seems like Graziella Affinita is overshadowing them with her antics. I'm not sure where Graziella Affinita is from though was it London? Miss Frank sang Respect by Aretha Franklin and were excellent. The best group by miles. Miss Frank will definitely get through to the last 12 of X Factor. Graziella Affinita actually did a Spanish rap in the middle of Miss Frank's song! Ronan Keating and Louis Walsh were obviously impressed. John and Edward the Irish twins were last to go in this section. They were back with their crazy hair and generally annoying personalities. John and Edward started on about how they wanted to inspire a new trend of people with big hair much the same as Britney Spears did with belly tops. I don't think so guys, you look ridiculous. John and Edward the Irish twins sang I Want It That Way by the Backstreet Boys. John and Edward were average as per usual and started to cry a bit at the end. That gave me a good laugh. I forgot to mention that for once Louis Walsh didn't take his contestants to Dublin but Lake Como in Italy.

Now on to some serious talent when the X Factor 2009 continued with Simon Cowell's over 25's. They were in Los Angeles for the auditions and guest judge was Sinitta. Sinitta came out naked with the exception of some banana leaves to spare her blushes? Why you ask? I have no idea. Perhaps Sinitta thought that someone other than Simon Cowell was actually interested in seeing her naked. So after that embarrassing episode Olly Murs kicked things off with his version of Michael Buble's A Song For You. Olly Murs did well but suffered from nerves which both Simon Coweel and Sinnita picked up on. Treyc Cohen was excellent she's a real dark horse for the competition and I really hope she get's through after this audition. Treyc Cohen sang Whitney Houston's He Fills Me Up. Treyc Cohen was definitely one of the best auditions for me the only down side was Simon saying she lacked that star belief whatever that means. Daniel Pearce was back with his green mohican singing Carrie Underwood's Praying For Time. I thought Daniel Pearce really overdid it with his voice failing him a couple of times. I did like Daniel Pearce's Samurai T Shirt however. Nicole Lawrence was going on about her dad being dead again. I thought we were done with all the sob stories at this stage? I really don't know what Nicole Lawrence sang as she was grunting, shouting and groaning her way through the song. I actually had to press the mute button she was overdoing it so much. I think Nicole Lawrence might have blown her chances of getting through to the X Factor final 12 but what do I know. Simon Cowell said she was incredible...hmm. Danyl Johnson also seemed to blow his chances by trying too hard. Seriously guys relax and let your talent shine through. Danyl Johnson sang Falling by Alicia Keyes and as I said really overdid it with his jittery dance moves and his crazy face snarling. Simon Cowell said Danyl Johnson was Marmite, you either love him or hate him. Jamie Afro Archer was last to go singing Stop Crying Your Heart Out by Oasis. This is the first time Jamie Archer has sang without the help of the audience which I've always given him a hard time about. He did well though and I liked his audition so I think Jamie Afro Archer should go through to the final 12.

Last but not least on this round of the X Factor 2009 auditions was the girls led by Dannii Minogue. Danni Minogue had taken them to some paradise hotel in Dubai and her guest judge was sister Kylie Minogue who dazzled in a green dress. Horse-faced Stacey Solomon kicked things off with Somewhere Over the Rainbow and did well. She seemed to struggle with her fake eye lashes though making her eyes go all droopy. Stacey Solomon did impress the judges however. The mahogany princess Stacey McLean was up next and would have been delighted to top up her fake tan with some real sunshine in Dubai. Stacey McLean was really nervous and her performance of Britney Spears Sometimes suffered because of it. Rachel Adedji was excellent and has been every time I've seen her. Rachel Adedji sang Pink's Nobody Knows and her voice was terrific. Despina Pilavakis was someone else who suffered from nerves and her voice was all over the place. Despina Pilavakis sang Christina Aguilera's Voice Within. I'd take a guess and say Despina Pilavakis won't make it to the final 12. Kylie Minogue didn't really have anything of value to add so unfortunately she seems as interesting as her sister Dannii. Lucie Jones the Welsh girl who makes out like she's kept in a dungeon in Mordor sang Anything For You by Gloria Estefan. I always wonder how the residents of Lucie Jone's home town of Pentyrch of her making out like she's wasted in that town and destined for bigger things. Anyway she was excellent and Lucie Jones has to go through. Last up was Nicole Jackson who to be honest I can't really remember. We had a bit of a sob story about how she hasn't spoken to her dad for a few years but hopes that if she gets through her dad will get in touch. I bet he will. So no pressure, Dannie and Kylie, you have to put Nicole Jackson through or she won't get to see her dad again. Nicole Jackson was doing really well until she broke down halfway through the audition. She picked it up amazingly well though and really impressed me. Danni and Kylie were almost in tears at the end.

All the results of who got through to the X Factor 2009 final 12 will come tomorrow!

X Factor Final 12 Results

Girls - Dannii Minogue
Lucie Jones
Rachel Adedji
Stacey Solomon

Miss Frank

Rikki Loney
Lloyd Daniels

Over 25 - Simon Cowell
Danyl Johnson
Olly Murs
Jamie Afro Archer

Ok so let the rant start about the X Factor 2009 results of the final 12! First up the girls was pretty straight forward for Dannii Minogue. No major controversy as far as I'm concerned. Lucie Jones has been excellent and every round and has to be a favourite to win the X Factor 2009. Nicole Jackson messed up yesterdays audition in Dubai and so that was probably the main reason she didn't get through. Dannii Minogue said that she lacks confidence. Stacey McLean didn't get through as she isn't strong enough as a solo artist. What a tan though, I mean it's terrific isn't it? I hope Stacey McLean watches it back and tones it down a few shades. Rachel Adedji got through she's been amazing every round as well. Not sure about Rachel Adedji's new hairdo at the closing credits though? Looks a bit like a Grace Jones number from the 1980's.
Despina Pilavakis is out as well, she messed up her audition in Dubai. I don't think she was good enough to win the competition anyway. Stacey Solomon was last to go through and she gallops on to the final 12. I didn't like her make over at the end but at least they got rid of Stacey Solomon's horrible fake eyelashes. Uggh!

Groups, what can Louis Walsh salvage from this train wreck. De-Tour didn't get through unsurprisingly. Louis said they didn't have the start quality so De-Tour are out. Miss Frank got through no surprises there. Miss Frank are the best group by miles and looked much better after the X Factor makeovers at the end! Harmony Hood had a little teddy bear with them I guess for good luck. Well done teddy bear you didn't bring them any! Harmony Hood are out as they should be for being generally crap. Kandy Rain. Wow there is no stopping these clowns. Louis put them through saying they were sexy but seriously Kandy Rain are awful. Project A didn't get through with Louish Walsh adding that they didn't have the wow factor or X Factor. I'd agree with that Project A didn't do anything for me. Last but not least is John and Edward the Irish twins. They got through too unbelievably. I'm not sure how the public will react to John and Edward but I guess we'll find out next week. Louis Walsh compared them to a young Boyzone so god help us all.

Boys, based on this evidence Cheryl Cole couldn't pick her nose properly. Her choices were absolutely terrible and she should be banned from judging anything for the rest of her natural life. She put Rikki Loney through! Can you believe that? The guy is awful. He has this weird eyebrow thing going on too which is in serious need of plucking. Unfortunately the X Factor makeover team disagrees as I saw it at the end credits! I don't understand why Rikki Loney got through he's absolutely no chance of winning the show. Ethan Boroian is out which I couldn't believe. He is so much better than Rikki Loney so I'm not sure what Cheryl Cole is thinking. Hopefully Ethan Boroian will go for American Idol and win it. Wow. Next ridiculous decision was to put Joseph McElderry though before Duane Lamonte. Duane Lamonte was sent home and was understandably upset by this. I thought he was excellent at his Marrakesh audition yesterday. I still think Cheryl Cole is related to Joseph McElderry! My favourite part was when she was going oh Joseph you know I have to put any sentimentality I have towards you aside and judge this fairly...you're through! What a joke. Again, does anyone really think he could win this? No! I think Duane Lamonte could have though. Lloyd Daniels got through as well and thankfully they fixed his hair at the end. Up until now he looked like a bird shat in his hair. They've given Lloyd Daniels a comb over do which looks much better. In conclusion I thought the judging of this was a complete joke. Cheryl you've done an awful job.

Over 25's didn't hold too many surprises either. Danyl Johnson got through, you can almost see the pound signs in Simon Cowell's eyes when this guy appears. After all the attention Danyl Johnson got in America he was always going to go through. Olly Murs also got in, I don't have anything to add to this other than I find Olly Murs extremely dull. Treyc Cohen didn't get through which I thought was a real shame. She had been excellent in all the rounds. Perhaps someone at X Factor HQ doesn't want another young black female singer winning it again this year? Three years in a row might be a bit of market saturation. Daniel Pearce didn't get through either. Simon gave him some weird reason about giving someone else a shot which is rubbish. If the guy's good enough give him another go! I thought Daniel Pearce was excellent too, shame he's out. Nicole Lawrence was finally put out of her misery. Most weeks she sounded like a wounded animal so Simon finally did the decent thing and sent her home. She's the size of a house. Jamie Afro Archer was the last guy to go through. Simon Cowell told him he'd be going home...with a ticket to the finals. Sneaky! Jamie Archer has to be another favourite to win the X Factor. They also trimmed his afro a bit at the makeover in the end.

Next week there's a double bill plus X Factor 2008 winner Alexandra Burke and Robbie Williams will be performing...oh job.

X Factor 2009 Auditions - Episode 6

The X Factor 2009 Auditions Episode 6 aired on Sunday the 20th of September 2009 and was part of a double bill with Episode 5. The big stand outs of tonight's show were Daniel Pearce, Scott James and Curtis Moore. For funny X Factor 2009 auditions we were spoiled for choice with CASYR, Michael 'Mr Wigan' Couling and back for more Eileen Chapman.

First up on Episode 6 of the 2009 X Factor Auditions were pub singers Tom and Paul otherwise known as Them 2. Them 2 wanted to share their love of music with the world and chose to do it by covering One Love by Blue. Simon Cowell didn't pull any punches and said they were both absolutely terrible and horrible at the same time. They seemed surprised. Them 2 were pretty bad, the voices were in monotone the whole time and didn't work together. Them 2 also did some weird prancing and posing up and down the stage. Cheryl Cole said they looked like they were being controlled by remote control I know what she was saying they were a bit robotic. No surprises they didn't get through to X Factor 2009 Bootcamp.

Amy Winehouse wannabe Faye Carford was up next. She sang I'm no good and had some crazy poodle hairdo going on. Faye Carford also had a babyish sounding voice and couldn't hit a single note. Terry Griffith's was the next funny X Factor 2009 contestant. He was 17 and claimed that the most interesting thing about him was that his brother shot him 'by accident'. After his terrible rendition of Westlife's Swear it Again Simon Cowell asked Terry Griffith's if his brother shot him to stop the singing. I love it! Jarrod Morrison was extremely strange I start to wonder about the British public I really do. Jarrod Morrison claimed to be 36, lets just say I'm not convinced. Anyway he had some Michael Jackson outfit on then started to strip while murdering Beat It. The funniest part of Jarrod Morrison's audition was when the crowd started chanting 'off off off' he mistakenly thought it was in reference to his shirt. So he took that off to show his pasty skinny body much to the dismay of the X Factor judges and the audience. He didn't get through.

Someone decent at last on the X Factor 2009 auditions episode 6! Daniel Pearce from Buckinghamshire was on Popstars the Rivals and ended up getting into the band One True Voice remember them? Didn't think so. They had a number 2 single in 2002 with Sacred Trust but Daniel Pearce and the band split up a few months later while Girls Aloud and Cheryl Cole have gone from strength to strength. So what's changed for Daniel Pearce over the past 7 years? His hair for a start. He was sporting a nice black with pink tipped mohawk mohican do. He's also been busy with the wife firing out a few kids along the way. Daniel Pearce sang Kiss From a Rose by Seal and was pretty good. All the judges loved him and Daniel Pearce has to be made one of the favourites to win X Factor 2009.

Despina Pilavakis was another young mahogany girl who seemed to have fallen into a big vat of fake tan. Despina Pilavakis sang The Weakness In Me by Keisha White/Joan Armatrading and marched through to boot camp. I thought she was pretty average but we'll see how she gets on at the next stage. Hopefully they'll wipe some of her fake tan off too. Nicole Jackson got a grand total of 10 seconds of screen time and sang Think Twice by Celine Dion. Nicole Jackson is an 18 year old bar worker and got through to boot camp. Another terrible group, Siren, got through I don't even know what they sang they got so little screen time. I'm not sure what ITV is playing at with this. Siren seem to be more memorable because they're two female twins that look like X Factor 2007 winner Leona Lewis. For me, they didn't sound like her but they got through to boot camp. The extravagantly named Graziella Affinita also got through by singing Alicia Keyes If I Ain't Got You. Graziella Affinita impressed Simon, the 25 year old bar manager had lots of interesting tattoos.

Enough of the talent, back to the funny X Factor auditions. Lauren and Nathan made up CASYR which stands for Care And Support Your Relatives. They came with 32 of their relatives but unfortunately they couldn't help CASYR get through. Mostly because, as Simon pointed out they were CRAP (Caring Relatives Are Problematic). They sang No Air by Chris Brown and Jordin Sparks but didn't hit a note. Poor CASYR. Steve Lee was a strange guy singing When You Believe by Whitney Houston and Mariah Carrey and was awful. Simon Cowell said it was one of the worst auditions he'd ever heard. The funniest part of Steve Lee's audition was when Simon told him he was 'horrific' he thanked Simon as he thought he said terrific. Some people live in a little delusional world of their own don't they? Anyway Steve Lee was 36 and is a graphic designer. He's still a graphic designer. The fantastically named Melody Mangazva was up next. I think she sang another Alicia Keyes song Where You Can Stay Forever but I might be wrong as it was hard to understand Melody Mangazva. She stomped off stage to several puns of her name by the X Factor judges. Michael Couling is a Mr body building Wigan winner. He beat 6 other people to the title so if that doesn't impress you I don't know what will. I don't know what Michael Couling sang either ITV only game him a few seconds of screen time which is maybe just as well. He took his shirt off which seemed to impress Cheryl and Dannii.

Paula McKenzie admitted to paying £600 on singing lessons which was evident from her terrible audition. The 26 year old florist sang My Life Would Suck Without You by Kelly Clarkson. Simon told her she looked like she was about to lay an egg before she even started singing. Nerves definitely got the better of her and she got a bit emotional at the end. A heckler from the crowd shouted at Simon to give Paula McKenzie her money back for the singing lessons to which Simon obliged. A happy ending for Paula McKenzie!

One of the stars of the X Factor 2009 Auditions Episode 6 was undoubtedly Scott James a 21 year old who suffers from autism. Apparently he's a hard time over the years with actually being able to leave his house so I'm not sure how he managed to audition in front of 2000 odd people at the Manchester X Factor auditions. Scott James credited this confidence to his mum and singing teacher. He sang You Raise Me Up by Westlife and had a good audition. The judges called his singing coach Lindsay out on to the stage to give him the verdict that he was going through to boot camp. Cue emotional mum shot, dramatic music, crowd goes wild blah blah you know the drill folks.

Eileen Chapman came back to annoy me further. I won't spend too much time on it, I'll just say she wore the same outfit made from animal remains and sang the same song. The usual flirting with Simon was there this time Eileen Chapman said she'd like to show him a thing or too. Sense prevailed and Eileen Chapman was sent home but at least she had a nice day out. M & G were next, I don't know what that stands for perhaps their initials? They were dressed like the Men In Black and were two Harrods security guards aged 25 and 42. M & G sang End of the Road by Boys II Men and got through to boot camp after telling Simon they saw him shopping in Harrods one day.

Trucolorz got through by singing Lady Gaga's Just Dance. Trucolorz were 3 girls aged 16-17 and didn't get enough air time for me to like or dislike them. Project A were another girl group with four members also singing Lady Gaga's Just Dance. Again Project A were on for less time than some of the commercials shown at the ad breaks so I can't say if they were good or not. Both Trucolorz and Project A got through to boot camp however. Daniel Fox had a bit of an opera voice and got through. Daniel Fox is only 18 and someone I'll definitely look out for in further X Factor episodes. Rachel Adedeji also got through singing Alicia Keyes's If I Ain't Got You. Rachel Adedeji was on the X Factor last year and is again through to boot camp this year.

Megan Fox lookalike Amie Buck was up next she's also from Newcastle so Cheryl took an instant liking to her. Her audition was a total mess but she was given every chance to prove herself...again...and again....and again. It wouldn't be the fact that she looks like Megan Fox that has anything to do with it is it? Seriously we actually had Cheryl Cole go up on stage and help her with the words at one point. First up she tried Alicia Keyes Falling, everyone told her she wasn't good enough to sing it. So she sang Girls Aloud version of Stand By Me in tears with Cheryl coaching her through. Amie Buck stumbles through to boot camp. It has recently come to light that Amie Buck is actually a lapdancer. She originally claimed to be a personal trainer, but hello you're on X Factor you know people are going to find out if you're lying! Amie Buck has been lapdancing at the Blue Velvet Club which is located in Newcastle. According to co-workers of lap dancer Amie Buck she can earn a pretty hefty sum on her nights in the club. In my opinion she's better sticking to lap dancing rather than singing.

Last but not least was cocky little Curtis Moore who turned up with a police tag on his leg as a result of prior charges. He told host Dermot O'Leary that he has a Police curfew 9pm. He got through to boot camp so I'm not sure how his curfew will affect him if he makes it to the live knockout stage. Will Curtis Moore have to go first so he can be home to meet his curfew? Or does Simon Cowell's arm reach as far as the cops and he can swing Curtis Moore some more time. He sang Let Me Love You by Mario and had a decent voice. Cheryl said he was a cheeky chappy and had a real swagger to him. He's through to boot camp. I couldn't help but think of his victims out there that he burgled and here he is prancing about on TV. He says he's learned from his mistakes so who am I to judge. Good luck Curtis Moore.

Cheryl Cole's dress were the same as some of the previous episodes but the new ones today were a gray mini dress with yellow, red, and green square print. The dress also had silver stud detailing and was accessorized with a pink over-sized bow belt and green heels. Cheryl Cole's other outfit of the night was a white striped button down shirt with puff short sleeves. Dannii Minogue's dress was a red boat-neck number with a silver chain-link necklace. Dannii also had another dress which was an 80's inspired look. It was a black and white dress where the black side of the dress was strapless and the white side had a big shouldered extreme puffball.

X Factor 2009 Auditions Episode 5 Recap for those who missed it. Richard Green, 30 years old and a security guard from Watford was first on the show with his scary eyes and crazy dancing! Richard Green skipped work to come and inflict his version of Word Up by Cameoon the X Factor audience and the watching viewers at home too unfortunately. Maggie Abboud was a 43 year old who worked at Heathrow airport as part of the ground personnel. Maggie Abboud did a very strange version of A Child is Born much to the misery of the judges and the X Factor audience. Maurice Siegel was a 76 year old retired telesales worker who claimed to have over 500 female fans in Southend. Perhaps it was because of the way he sticks out his tongue? Pretty scary. Maurice Seigel sang Delialah by Tom Jones in his pink and blue shirt which was almost as bad as the singing. Chelsey Fletcher was a 16 year old student who sang a song which I couldn't understand. To be honest she was so bad I don't even know what Chelsey Fletcher sang. Ethan Boroian to the rescue! Ethan Boroian is a 19 year old student living in Surrey but originally from Chicago. Ethan Boroian sang Use Somebody by the Kings of Leon and everyone loved it including the judges with Dannii saying he's a little superstar. Faye Bray came out in some lingerie no doubt inspired by the Pussycat Dolls and she managed to get through. Faye Bray was unbelivably a prison lecturer and sang River Deep Mountain High by Tina Turner. If she wins she would use her fame for the power of good and work for the NSPCC or to help donkeys which I thought was great. Treyc Cohen was a call centre worker aged 25 who wowed the audience and all four X Factor judges with her version of I'm Every Woman by Whitney Houston. I've never seen Treyc spelled that way before. Even as I type Treyc Cohen my blogger spell checker is complaining! We'll be seeing more of Treyc Cohen in boot camp! Karl Lewis was up next this unemployed 25 year old sang Aerosmiths I don't wanna miss a thing and got through to boot camp. His Nan was back stage so Simon shouted her to come out on stage and she got a great round of applause from the judges and the X Factor Audience.. Harmony Hood were a group of 2 boys and 2 girls ages ranging from 18-23. Harmony Hood were pretty average but through they go. They sang Kanye West's Love Lockdown acappella style and it was average at best as you can tell I'm not too impressed with Harmony Hood. They got four yes's and Harmony Hood slide in to the X Factor 2009 Boot Camp. Natricia Thompson did an awful version of Whitney Houston's Dance With Somebody. They did one of the opening sequences where Natricia Thompson talks about how great she is then we're shocked back to reality when she starts to sing. Gianni Rocchetta was a 42 year old interpreter with a funny haircut and a terrible voice. Gianni Rocchetta sang a version of Madonna's Vogue through his nose and topped that off with some terrible dancing all round a pretty awful audition. Jackson Ssentamu sang Billie Jean by Michael Jackson after talking about how he'd become a pop prince. Jackson Ssentamu really didn't have much of a voice and didn't get through. Simone Lucioli the Italian model took off his shirt and pleased the ladies in the audience. Oh and Simone Lucioli sang Crazy Little Thing Called Love by Queen if anyone is interested? Kandy Rain were a sort of Pussycat Dolls tribute act who sang Don't Cha Wish Your Girlfriend was Hot Like Me. Kandy Rain are through to boot camp. Indie Okoye a 19 year old student sang Summertime and the Livin is Easy by Billie Holiday and had a nice soulful voice. Indie Okoye marches on through to X Factor boot camp. Stacey McClean is 20 and from Blackpool and is an Office Worker and sang Christina Aguilera's Aint No Other and was pretty average but Stacey McClean got through to the X Factor boot camp. Dominic Harris sang Chris Brown's With You and was another yes. Apparently Dominic Harris was on the X Factor in 2007 but I can't say I remember him. Nicole Lawrence started singing Another Little Piece of My Heart by Dusty Springfield but Simon stopped her as she seemed to be over singing it a bit. She then sang Alicia Keyes If I Aint Got You and Nicole Lawrence is another yes. It Takez 2 were quite funny and amazing got through to the next round. It Takez 2 sang the classic Jackson's song I'll Be There with most of the judges saying they preferred Katie's voice to Russel. They both met at Pontins which is a great X Factor story!
