The voting figures have been released from series five of X-Factor. I’m gobsmacked that Eoghan Quigg was leading throughout most of the series. What is WRONG with you people?! Alexandra Burke had a late surge, and was third from bottom in week seven. I guess these figures truly show how fickle the public are. And how much they fall for a sob story. Scott Bruton second in the first week? That wasn’t a sympathy vote for having a terrible song, was it?! Come on, people. Next year, please sort it out. Take note of the singing, not the personal things going on, not what the red tops say, just the bloody singing.
