Historic X Factor Eviction Voting Results
ByAll,
For those that are interested, here is an Excel file with all the weekly X Factor voting percentages for 2008, 2009 and 2010.
An interesting first “proper” week this week. With 12 acts you will be looking at around 2-3% of the vote for those in the bottom two. 5% of the vote would definitely see an act safe.
Nu Vibe are apparent sitting ducks, but at 2/1 there isn’t much in the price.
There seems to be a lot of people that think Kitty is good value to go… Can she accumulate the 4-5% of the vote that she needs to keep herself safe?
It’s important not to forget that ”there’s nowt as queer as folk”… Just because YOU wouldn’t vote for her…
If she is in the bottom two, will the judges (AKA producers) choose to keep her and, more importantly, her antics in the show for a week or two yet?
The bands are always up against it – they just don’t inspire people to pick up the phone. I think this year they will see a boost to their voting numbers due to having Tulisa, rather than Louis Walsh or Simon Cowell, as their mentor – but this can only have so much of an effect.
Rhythmix are likely to struggle for public vote based on histric girl band performance – however, one thing that shouldn’t be noted is the support that Gary Barlow gave them last week. Kelly Rowland isn’t a huge fan, but I think they would get to deadlock at a minimum if they were in the sing off. I expect them to be safe, one way or the other.
Tulisa herself failed to back Nu Vibe, and with The Risk pinching all of the boy band votes, it seems likely that they will be in the bottom two – and are deservedly favourites to go home.
The only other consideration is Johnny Robinson. His camp and light hearted performances should see him hang around just yet – but once he does hit the bottom two, expect him to be gone in favour of more serious acts.
Irrespective of the bottom two combinations it does look like Nu Vibe are in real trouble…
What does everybody else think?
Cheers
I know feck all about X Factor and only saw it two weeks ago for the first time, the episode where Kitty jumped in to the pool. She seems nuts so I can’t see her getting voted off for a few episodes yet. She might be divisive but those that ‘like’ her probably nuts enough to vote in big numbers for her.
I like this discussion idea btw, good feature, sorry I missed it earlier in the week for looking at this weekend’s games.
Yeah – they were shit to open the show.
Thanks for the spreadsheet Blez – only just got onto the computer so not had a chance to take a look properly before the first act.
Still monitoring things here… not yet put my hand in my pocket for Xfactor yet but I’ll get my head around it as we move through the weeks.
Saying that, I’m almost tempted to lay at that dip to 2.0 as we’re only one act in and its a big field.
The acts are that bad this year I am not sure I can bring myself to sit through the series though… betting opportunities or no betting opportunities!
Well that was a turn up for the books lol *cough cough*
One of the overs will be shifted/stitched next week… And I doubt it will be Kitty.
Johnny or Sami will go…
I’ll go Sami at 5′s I reckon…
Think your shout on Sami is spot on. I’m locked in to this nonsense to keep the gf happy.
Sami comes across as a bit of a diva with pub singer voice. Her, Marcus then kitty I reckon.
That girl group will be in for a few weeks at
least. My thinking is that theres not. Been a girl group that’s come out of the factor and surely a demographic that the producers will want to cover.
Good spot on the Liverpool/united match by the way
A nice little win a 5/1 here for those that picked up on it… for the others, apologies for not “oranging” the selection for you…
Mky. – Hope you picked up a nice little return?
Cheers
