The Brit Factor: The X Factor

Sunday nights have become a national guilty pleasure as the population of Britain rushes home to watch the X Factor.

Sting dismissed the show as “televised karaoke”, but that hasn’t stopped it from being the most watched show in the UK.

The nation looks forward to the next disastrously entertaining show that Jedward will put up. How will Dannii do her hair this week? What harsh yet hilarious comment will Simon Cowell give us? Cheryl Cole has suddenly become the nation’s sweetheart, and Louis Walsh can be counted on to add extra spice to all that goes on.

The show’s participants are staying at the X factor house. Proof of the show’s popularity are the hoards of screaming teenagers camped outside this house, waiting to get a glimpse of their newest idols, the Irish twins John and Edward. The noise levels have reached such levels that neighboring houses, in including the Chinese Embassy, have complained to the police.

The show also brings on internationally renowned stars such as Shakira and the Black Eyed Peas, to publicize their latest songs.

In the end it all comes down to the public vote. This is the shows winning combination, as power to kick off the latest loser lies with the public.

People have complained that the show is rigged and that the results are unfair as the best singers seem to be leaving the show.

Who cares? We are as addicted to it as the rest of the British public!
