The X Factor Performances - Week One

Such an amazing song choice for Cher which really shows off her swag, although she seems a little drowned out by the backing track.

Treyc shows great vocals here, and it definitely shows why she was chosen as Cheryl's wildcard. Not entirely sure she had the best vocals of the night though Simon...

Katie just looks awful in her performance, like a cheap man's Lady GaGa tribute and as a result looks a bit desperate. Not sure the song did her any favours, way too big for her.

Wow, she has finally performed a fun, uptempo song. She just needs more confidence to enhance the performance but it's great to hear a different sound from her.

Amazing vocals, Mary really shows off her diva side. Although stop dressing her all in black, she's not Dawn French.

Storm...awful styling!! The performance didn't seem that inspired but we feel like he could do more.

Totally forgettable, and it's such a dated song. Very dull...he should surely be first to go?

Amazing ;-)

One Direction definitely need to gel together more. They're obviously a typical boy band, but they need to sync their style more.

F.Y.D. had the difficult job of going first, we definitely want to see more from them though, although we expected more from them this time.

Belle Amie seemed ultra shy, which is odd as they're all good singers. We want to see them again however, and for them to up the performance.

Horrendous outfits, there's no need to tack them up so much! Surprisingly enjoyable even though only one seems to sing...

Gripping and intense, although due to him sounding too similar to those he's compared to I'm not sure if I could bear an entire album of his voice.

Fire the stylist. Good vocals but the performance felt a little average.

Gets off to a shaky start, he definitely needs to build his confidence but should get better and better.

Thought he'd be better...what happened to the diva? Disagree with Cheryl's sunglasses comment though, it's all about the performance ;-)
