Reasons why I hate X Factor

Oh hai there boys and girls alike, right now as I'm writing this, it is my second blog in one day, excitement! But I probably won't publish this until tomorrow (today for you guys.. Or something) so hello Yalda from the past, here are reasons why I hate X Factor!

1. Oh it's that time of year again, where everyone is talking about X Factor! I say talking as a light term, what I really mean is going absolutely obsessively crazy over. Guys, it's a TV show. Also being an Internet nerd, on facebook, the whole of my news feed is this programme. I don't need to watch it, I can get the whole script from the show simply from my friend's status'!

2. Pretty sure you all know what X Factor is, a talent show, the best singer gets a record deal. But I hate the way that so many people vote for popularity, looks, not actual raw talent. If it was, let's face it, it would be a lot more boring and no one would watch it. I wonder if it wasn't a TV show, it was a weekly radio show or something. You had no idea what they looked like, simply their voice. Would the same singers be voted in?

3. This links with point 2. So the winner of X Factor gets a big contract and everything? They virtually get a Christmas number 1 (up until last year - power of the people RATM!). Wouldn't it be better for a Christmas number 1 to go to someone who actually deserves it, which musical ability and talent. This is why I supported the Rage Against The Machine project so much: a) it's a great band with a great song, b) they have been around for years, and will be around for years to come! The winners of X Factor will be forgotten very quickly. 

4. I was talking to a friend of mine the other day about X Factor. I said once I'd watched it, Simon Cowell gave some criticism and got booed by the audience! I mean, he's a judge, can't he have an opinion? What's he meant to do, just sit there and say they were great to every person? He's not Cheryl Cole let's face it.. Personally I think he's the best judge, even though he's a bit of an idiot. My friend again said she didn't like him at all. I thought to myself, you're just lining his wallet the more you watch his shows.

Oh would you look at that, I've just published this on the same day, I lied to you all earlier! For that I can only apologise I'm so sorry.

Well it's like Christmas for you, two new blogs in one day. Peace out <3
