LOL I'm such a stan. I EVEN VOTED FIVE TIMES.
FUCK YEAH, CHER'S IN THE FINAL. \o/
Okay, so I know that usually they just do a straightforward elimination at top five without a singoff, and they probably just did a singoff because Cher had the least votes and they wanted to keep her around. I DON'T CARE. She's awesome, and even though she'll probably be out first next week I'm just super happy she's made it that far. I'm crossing my fingers that her celebrity duet will be with Nicki Minaj and she'll lose her shit as completely as Alexandra did when she sang with Beyonce! And I can't wait to see her do Turn My Swag On again. :D (Presuming they do their audition songs again? They did last year, but obvs this would be difficult with One Direction. Oh well, hopefully!) Weirdly I HATED her audition when I first saw it but somewhere along the line I did a complete 180 and started to love her.
Also, last night: I love her so hard for not changing the gender when she sang Nothin' On You. It's always super distracting when people do that, so kudos to her for not being all, "zomg, what if people think I'm gay?!"
FUCK, I'M SO EXCITED FOR NEXT WEEK. BRING IT ON.

Btw have you heard Ruth Lorenzo's debut single 'Burn'? It's amazing. I also recently heard her singing opera. Yes, opera. She's got the most amazing voice.
I always feel the best acts are best not winning, the only actual success Syco have had is with Alexandra. As Leona isn't managed by them. Thats why I think the best outcome would be for One Direction to win, as then at least they already have the experience of dealing with Westlife. Matt would go nuts under their managment.
Back to Cher...she pings my gaydar so much. I mean, not changing the gender and wearing a suit outfit and dickie bow tie. That performance was so gay! I just love her. She'll come fourth for sure but I suspect they wanted her in the final because they have a huge US star booked for her. They wouldnt have gone to all that trouble other wise.

I think some of the acts that have been successful post-X Factor have had some sort of joint record deal between Syco and some other company that actually knows what they're doing (usually American), so that could be a good route for Cher if Simon insists on signing her. If they get Cher working with some American producers I think she could do really well. She just needs the right songs.

Yeah she's in love with Nicki and she also said she was obcessed with Cheryl in one of the very early interviews. We have a baby dyke for sure LOL
Yeah and if you look at Leona, I highly doubt she would have been as sucsessful if she hadn't of signed that American record deal. Cher defo has to have the right songs. I have faith though. I think she's going to be the most sucsessful act from this year.
