I literally do not know what to say about X Factor last night, other than OMG- there goes my social life until Christmas!
Seriously, it was that good. Dermot giving it back to the judges, the judges all feuding amongst themselves and despite it over running by about half an hour in my opinion, it kept me glued from start to finish.
But most importantly, who came out on top in style stakes? Well, ultimately both Dannii and Cheryl did me proud with their choices for the night, but did you notice how tangoed Chezza was?!
Absolutely stunning though she is, that was far too much tan to take in for HD TV. Tone it down next week pet, and you'll be fine. Loved the one shoulder lace number though, very on-trend, but Dannii wins this week for me overall.
Gorgeous loosely tussled up-do, red vamp lips and a white lace dress teamed with fierce heels. Stunning.
As for the contestants- What the hell were the stylists thinking for half of them?! Katie looked ridiculous in a space age coat, weird headdress and pink lycra leggings, although I liked her performance more than I thought I would!
Aiden, as lovely as he is, was put in a high collared white frilly shirt, that even a medieval vampire would have trouble pulling off.
Funnily enough, Simon Cowell made the comparison of Twilight, to which Aiden responded by looking like he'd see a ghost. Great performance though, despite his nerves and despite looking like he was in pain for the whole two minutes.
I loved Cher, although she came across as a tad cocky for my liking after her performance, Bel Amie were cute in headscarves and mismatching clobber, while One Direction just looked too young to command such a big stage.
Storm was terrifying in those silver lycra pants, but all credit to him- an amazing performance on the night. John failed to make an impression, although he very much looked the part, as did FYD, who are unfortunately better dancers and fashionistas than they are singers.
Trayc's outfit did nothing for her curves, while Diva Fever managed to camp up proceedings in neon lycra and more make-up than is strictly necessary!
It was a Louis choice of song and choreography, oddly put together by Cowell. We all know if Louis had indeed put that in front of the other three, Simon would of torn him to pieces.
Speaking of Louis' odd choices, Wagner in his velvet suit was horrendously misrepresented with his song on the night, but Louis did at least get it right with Mary. My god, what a performance from someone I had really dismissed as mediocre.
Rebecca also had a stunner on the night, finally opening her eyes and letting the audience in. Full marks for the dress choice too, she's already got her own look and letting her be herself will go a long way with winning the audience over.
My favourite bloke who was knocked back twice before making it to the live shows, the gorgeous Paige was amazing on the night, although what was with the bad 80s fashion, I do not know. Give the man back his feathery hat!
Lastly, Nicolo was really let down by his song choice and odd decision to let him wear sunglasses all through the performance- I think he may be on his way home tonight.
What did you think of last night's performances? Who should go and who should stay?
