After a hilariously bad performance of "She Bangs", John and Edward were voted through to the next round on Britain's The X Factor. In the bottom 2 were two acts that the judges universally liked, which has apparently resulted in an emergency meeting of the producers. We just hope that John and Edward will stick around for weeks to come! VFTW Victory!
While we don't really care about the British show The X Factor, we have to applaud 2 performances from this week because they just can't be missed.
First, John and Edward perform "Oops I Did It Again". Yes, this is a real group of contestants on the show. It's like Sanjaya had a twin. They made it past this week too. Why doesn't American Idol realize that we want entertaining train wrecks like this?
And speaking of train wrecks, Whitney Houston's performance of "Million Dollar Bill" helps ease the pain we feel from missing Paula Abdul. Whitney's clearly messed up. The best parts are when her dress breaks in the middle of the song and she looks bewildered, and then when she can barely speak at the end.
Bravo this week, X Factor.
