X Factor 2008 - Week 6, Leona Lewis Returns

Global Pop Star, Leona Lewis won the X Factor in 2006. Since then her career as exploded forward like a powerful shooting star.

This week she returned to the X Factor stage to perform her new song, Run. It was a song originally performed by Snow Patrol.

Leona is a rare talent. This was an extraordinary performance, but every performance Leona give is extraordinary so maybe that is no surprise. The competition would be hard pushed ever again to find somebody of her quality. There are some fantastic acts this year, but Leona Lewis is Leona Lewis.

X Factor 2006 saw her Mentored by Simon Cowell and I'm sure he knew, pretty early on, he had a guaranteed chance of winning.



I wonder what happened to Ray?

X Factor 2008 - Week 6, The Best of British

With the shock eviction of Laura White last week, the X Factor has become a bit of a Monster. Everyone seems to be getting involved. MPs, Pop stars, big online petitions...

Put Laura back in!, they scream.

I can't see this happening really. It does appear a bit weird that Laura White went out when being such a strong second favourite to win, but go out she did. Both Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh had previously described Laura as World Class. Apparently though, World Class isn't good enough.

If Acts could be put back into the contest pending online petition or Political intervention, then the show would quickly become a mockery. Well... a bigger mockery than it is at the moment.

It has been proven time and time again. On Voting shows, you can never trust the public to make the perceived right decision. Hmmm...

... And with the uproar, controversy and mangled twisted wreckage quickly disappearing in the rear view mirror, into Week 6 we go.

The Theme for the sixth installment is Best of British. I'm not 100% sure quite what this means, but you can bet your life, they won't be singing Chaz and Dave.

The most successful X Factor winner of all time will return to the stage, the amazing Leona Lewis. She won't be singing Chaz and Dave either. Shame.
