THE X FACTOR - DAWN BOYLE

The difference between American Idol and The X Factor. by Marissa Meleske


For a few weeks now I have been tuning in to watch this American Idol spin-off. First I want to let you all know, I hate American Idol. My husband  has religiously watched since season 1. I really never got into it. So what's the difference between the two? Why am I loving X so much?

Some of the differences I have noticed is that there is no age limit at X. I like that. I really enjoy the stories of the people who are my age and still chasing their dream...and for that 5 million dollar recording contract I am considering getting voice lessons and trying out next season. The mentoring I originally thought would bug the hell out of me, but it's hasn't. The way they put people together for the groups division is also pretty cool. Those girls (forget their name, think is has something to do with rain) are really awesome! 

Seems like Simon is taking happy pills and Paula maybe has stopped taking whatever she was on during her stint on Idol. Nicole (Pussycat Doll) is not too annoying and LA Reid is totally bad ass. I think he might be the most cool dude in America. I bet he is fun to hang out with.

LUNCH TIME POLL


Dawn Boyle

You are never going to believe who is back together....

This morning Fox announced that Paula Abdul will join Simon Cowell on the X-FACTOR as a judge, this fall, which started auditions this past weekend in Los Angeles.

Simon and PaulaThe chemistry or friction between the two was sometimes funny, sometimes uncomfortable, but did make for awesome ratings. That was the last time I watched Idol.

L.A. Reid and Cheryl Cole will join Paula and Simon as judges this season as well.

Were you planning on watching X Factor this fall?

Are you more inclined to tune in with Paula on the panel?
