Britain's Got Talent 2011: New Judges

Havid Hasselhoff and Michael McIntyre

Yes the 'Hoff'...David Hasselhoff will be joining Britain's got talent as a judge, after his stint on America's got talent. However the 'Hoff' has recently had his new reality show cancelled in America after only 2 episodes when they only received 2million viewers.

It is great news that Michael McIntyre will be joining the line up...he will provide undoubtedly amazing witty remarks and humour throughout...I can't wait.

Amanda Holden will still be in the line up...as well as Ant and Dec

and Simon Cowell will only be joining for the live finals.

So there is a lot going on here, but I am sure it will be great no matter what (another Susan Boyle find?)

However...time to celebrate that Piers Morgan is out...he has hit it big in America...replacing Larry King's time slot...you are welcome to him

X Factor 2010






As I sat down to watch the X factor for yet another year, I thought perhaps this year they would change the format of the show.


However, within the first minute predictable editing, montages, and sob stories were thrust upon the nation. Although at heart we new this would be the case, I was not prepared for the disappointment of tampering with contestant voices. Immediately I could hear the auto tune software as it clearly echoed and tingled in my ear. Those older viewers such as clueless parents did not register, but we know in our youth of Charlie bit me auto tune and T-Pains Auto tune app for the Iphone.
There was no attempt to disguise the software, these contestants may go on to Win the X factor, however their first audition will never be that of Leona Lewis or Alexandra Burke's honest and stripped back Audition. A young woman Gamu was the most used and exploited in her audition by her X factor team as she gave a great rendition of Walking on sunshine by Katrina and the Waves, which would not have needed tampering with.

In a quick mention the slightly odd yet entertaining 'Mercy Woman' (Shirlena Johnson) was less than beneficial from auto tuning. The recent claims of her mental state has been likened to that of Susan Boyle despite being her own individual self, will she put in a box with the now millionaire Scot.

X factor - What are you doing? Sort it Out. remember this year not to use so many lights
