Thex Factor - Queen and Lady Gaga - 'Don't be a drag, just be a queen'

1. Marcus – that was ridiculously good. Though I have to worry about him always wearing suits and having a quiff up front and a harem of male dancers behind. It reminds me too much of Ray Quinn. He’ll end up in a touring production of Grease and it’ll be his own fault!

2. Amelia – I still have her absurd cover of Billie Jean on my Ipod. She was unlucky to be voted off the first week so Ihave no great issue with her coming back. The yelping near the end was very off so she misses out on top place just this once. Also shes just so hard.

3. Janet – lovely and not as boring as they said. I liked the yelping and it was infinitely more in tune than her so-scary-she’s-a-stalker’s-stalker cover of The Police.

4. Little Mix – When I used to blog at length, I would write about the contestants’ VTs. I don’t have the energy to do that again this year as I’d have to concentrate when Marcus and Craig witter on about nothing. But I do want to mention the girls’ VT as it featured a rank-looking goat curry made by Tulisa. I love that she makes goat curry and ting.
Little Mix’s Gaga cover rocked as they’re not afraid to sound a bit wonky and whore around. Which is the secret to a Gaga performance. Well done girls!

5. Misha B – I did not enjoy this slowed-down dulled-up Gaga cover. I want Misha with the extreme hair and make up and shrill wailing. I didn’t care it made her look like a bitchy alien. This full-voiced frizzy-haired woman is no fun. Louis compared her to Chaka Khan or Jackie Chan – it wasn’t clear.

6. Craig - A ballady Gaga. A boringy Gaga too. Craig should’ve camped it up like last week. Or sung an actual ballad like You and I or Queen’s The Show Must Go On.

7. Kitty - the only Queen song I definitely don’t like. Yuk! Her enunciation is no better than Goldie’s. I guess it’s just less funny because she’s not Chinese. It was her time to go.
