Bullets 'n' Babes

Just saw an ad for this this morning - didnt say when it would start, it just said "Coming Soon" - so probably in the Autumn.

Expect another boyband type person like Shayne to win...

This show is such a joke. Except for:

* Girls Aloud - 4 HOT and 1 nearly HOT women is bound to sell
* Will Young

They've all dried up after 1 single. The last two winners of X-Factor didn't even get 1 hit. The fact is yes they can all sing that's a given but do they have:

* Star quality
* Charisma
* Stage factor
* Original material

NOPE, NOPE, NOPE and NOPE

Even the BBC seem to have given up on Fame Academy, that was really rubbish.

Girls Aloud 8)


The show and people who watch this crap

Agree some of GA are quite fit.
Agree Will Young is a credible artist, his songs are quite good.
Shayne had his No 1 song and then disappeared, where are Maria and Brenda from X Factor (who were good). Chico even has had more publicity than Shayne but Chico seems very likeable.

Will Young it has to be said is good, like his videos for his songs even


not as much as I like the Girls Aloud videos it has to be said

I liked Brenda and Maria. Stupid fucking judges.

Agreed. Disgrace Brenda went, IMO :x

The new season starts this Saturday. They also had a kind of update show - the X Factor one year on - last week. The last series seems like a long time ago now doesnt it?

I don't see that there's much point to the show anymore.

It's open to everyone but you'll only win if you're a pop idol.

Last year was a mockery.

Damn thing gets addictive when you start watching though...

It clashes with the Maria programme on BBC (and that show is awesome)....

X-Factor is supposed to be new? No offense, but it has been airing in Germany for years.

Yeah, Brenda was clearly very good and probably should of won but it was obvious Shayne would win as he ticked all the teen idol boxes. Bah :shock:
I agree it is addictive
LD when did X Factor first air in Germany? It first aired here in 2004 (I think), when Steve Brookstien (who?) won.

Chico's new song is apparently a cover of D-I-S-C-O. Whats the betting it will be C-H-I-C-O instead? Jeez, I like the guy but thats a bit ego-centric isnt it?

Mark did you see the first episode? Quite funny watching the genuinely bad people, but you do feel for guys like Sean (sp?), a 16 year old who's a bundle of nerves (don't blame him). Donna - was she Eastern European or something? kept begging Cowell and co to let her in
The guy who "sang" You Raise Me Up was a hoot

I liked the scary granny.

How bad is it when you're 46 and bring you're mother-in-law into the audition??

They shouldn't have put the kid through - Simon was right.

He's a (fragile) boy against men.

I taped this and watched Maria, which is a better show.

Edna the granny was classic - with her face and the Jaws music
I loved the You Raise Me Up guy when the season changed and it said Much much much later - LMAO.
I think both Sharon and Simon both had valid arguments for and against putting the kid through, I felt sorry for him Maybe Sharon and Louis's thinking is letting him through will boost his confidence but realistically Simon is right too. Better he comes back next year.

Booooob I missed my Maria show cuz of this.

But my mate taped so I'm sorted. 8)

It's rather obvious why you're watching this then

Romero, i love will young, great singing voice, great tracks and a dirty mincer.

What's this Maria show you speak of?

How do You Solve A Problem Like Maria on BBC1, Bruce.

I don't know mate, how do you solve a problem like Maria?

A damn good spanking....

Has anyone seen Let Me Entertain You on BBC2 in the afternoon?

Well, its rubbish 8) Bad rip off the X Factor type format, except contestants have 3 minutes to impress the judge(s?) and can do whatever they like. Yesterday there was a Journey South type act singing Mrs. Robinson by Simon and Garfunkel. Good song and thought they were OK-ish, their voices were a bit wierd though, took a bit of getting used to, and they went on too long with the "do-do-do"'s at the start.

I watched it (X Factor) last night.
One of the auditionees (Warren) was crap.
But I did feel for Paris, the young girl who sang opera. She came on saying she was 16, sang very well, but then revealed she was only 14 so she couldnt go through
