Last night, I thought Rachel gave what I would describe as the performance of the series on X-Factor – it was phenominal for this stage of the competition! It has to be the only X-Factor performance that I have ever danced along to as well! I’ve thought that she’s been consistently amazing throughout the competition, … Continue reading »

I can only figure that it’s there so that the ‘bad’ auditionees cannot hear some of the giggling and snide comments coming from the audience(?) … Continue reading »
