Yeah apparently the vast majority of the 100,000 people never get to see the three judges. Somebody on TV the other day said it would take 3 years if the three judges really did audition all 100,000 acts.

 

Makes sense. If you assume 5 mins per act (and it probably takes more time than that including the time for one act to leave and the next to come in) and 16 hour days (also unlikely) it would take 520 days to see 100,000 people.

 

How sad am I?

I think they were going through people more like every minute unless they were either really good or particularly funny in which case they let them go on :D

 

Gaz.

And that single was the song that Kelly Clarkson won it with in the American show. I mean how rigged towards Leona is that?

 

I did think the "single" song was unfortunate for Ray. Without even hearing them it was obviously going to suit Leona.

 

But to be fair - I think she is way more talented than him and would sound better with most stuff.

Its sad for Ray but Leona has more of a chance if she wins, he will be like the rest of them guys who come from these programs, they have a few good songs then they are never heard of again, i think the market is more open for a solo female artist rather than for a guy.

I thought it was interesting that the judges don't seem remotely neutral tonight. They've all said Leona should win. And I think financially it's what they want. As Robert said - I think Ray would manage one album, but I think Leona could become a real superstar - and I think they see the possibility of a real return on their "investment".
