Is this X Factor or surprise surprise?

Well, Sunday was another shocker wasn't it?  I was right about Sophie being in the bottom two but I'd never have thought that Misha would have received so few votes. However I should have realised that the bullying accusations of last week would have had an impact on her popularity,  especially as the press had gone to town on it.  Because I didn't expect Misha to be in the sing off I had a glorious moment of joy when it was Sophie, Frankie and Misha left on the stage.  I honestly thought the hordes of teenage girls had come to their senses and had found someone else to foist their hormones on but sadly not.  My moment of joy turned into a crushing disappointment as he continues on to be in next weeks show.  Of course as soon as we knew who was going to be singing their little hearts out to battle to stay in the competition it was a foregone conclusion.  Louis had been rude to Sophie in the live show and the others hadn't exactly been glowingly supportive so we all knew she was going home.  I'm surprised they even put her through the stress of asking her to sing again as the poor girl clearly knew the decision that was going to be made.  The judges did at least attempt to act indecisive but it made no difference.  Why they bothered to get Kelly on the phone when she's so ill (her voice sounds better than mine and I just have a cold, not a rare throat infection) I have no idea.  The other judges would have sent Sophie packing without he input.  I smell a rather fishy rat.

I'm really starting to look forward to each show now as the standard this year really is very good.  Until next time.
