The most brutal part of the X Factor is here: 6 chair challenge. The judges will be assigned their categories by the viewers and then each will have to pick their TOP 6 from 14-17 acts that are still remaining in each of the 4 categories.
Rita Ora will be picking her TOP 6 girls tonight.
The 6 chairs rise from the floor. All judges want the girls. Cheryl also wants a challenge – the groups. Simon wants the girls, the groups, the boys and then the overs.
Rita Ora gets THE GIRLS! She is thrilled!
Simon Cowell gets THE OVERS! He is pissed!
Nick Grimshaw gets THE BOYS! He is also happy. Simon isn’t.
So Cheryl finally gets THE GROUPS!
The girls are opening the 6 chair challenge. Rita is sure this year’s winner is in her category.
Katie Coleman – The Voice Within (Christna Aguilera)
She is super nervous and it shows in her voice. Simon thinks she is capable of better. Cheryl also noticed the nerves. Simon says he would hive her a chair … at home. Rita says the vocal wasn’t good enough. The crowd is chanting: “Seat!”, but Katie is going home.
Karen Mav – I’d Rather Go Blind (Etta James)
Strong vocal. The judges are smiling. Nick says she was phenomenal, Cheryl liked it, too. Rita gives her the first seat.
Chloe Baker – You’ve Got The Love (Florence + The Machine)
I don’t like this vocal on this song. She gets the second seat.
Monica Michael – What Is Love (Empire)
She sang Olly Murs’ “Troublemaker” last year and went home. This time she is singing something more ballad-y. It works much better, but I still don’t find this performance that great. Nick thinks this was exactly what she needed to do. Cheryl asks why she didn’t do that last year. Simon didn’t think it was great … he thought it was fantastic. Rita gives her a seat.
Sharon Rose – Let It Go (James Bay)
This is the first time we see her. She is from Essex and 26 years old. Good version. Cheryl loved it, Nick too. Simon says he didn’t remember her from before and doesn’t think she can win. But Rita gives her a seat.
Chloe Paige – Amazing Grace
She is singing acapella. This isn’t too great. Her voice isn’t big enough for this song and she is using various tricks to get through the song. The judges all loved it, but Rita isn’t sure the girl is memorable. In the end, Rita gives her a seat.
Charli Beard – Love You I Do (Jennifer Hudson)
She had some good moments, but some weren’t that great.
Cheryl thinks she smashed that vocal and Nick would give her a chair. Simon agrees. Rita has one chair left and she gives it to Charli.
Louisa Johnson – And I Am Telling You (Jennifer Holliday)
Louisa is going for it, there is really no way she is not getting a seat. Standing ovation from the judges and the audience. Simon says she is 17 and this doesn’t happen… Louisa is getting a chair. Chloe Baker is going home.
Havva Rebke – No Diggity (Blackstreet)
She is urban hip-hop pop star material. Vocally she isn’t that great, but she is adorable. Nick and Cheryl love her and Simon thinks she would be a good recording artist. Nick telly Rita to swap her. Rita gives her a seat. Charli Beard is going home. The audience wants Charli back. But Nick thinks Rita made the right decision.
Kiera Weathers – I Will Always Love You (Whitney Houston)
She is singing this for her mum. She singing it straight, but she is pretty much nailing it. Good comments from the judges. She is definitely getting a seat. Rita is clueless who to send home. Tough category. Rita swears … Karen Mav is going home. The audience wants her back.
Kelly Mai Webb – Because the Night (Patti Smith)
This sounded very karaoke. I think the song wasn’t demanding enough. It’s a NO from Rita.
Lucy Duffield – Natural Woman (Aretha Franklin)
Another big vocal. Nick thinks this is her best performance so far. Simon said he wrote her off earlier, but thinks she deserves a chair. Rita says she has a great voice, but thinks she is not enough versatile as a singer. Rita says she doesn’t know how to helps her as a mentor and a judge. Rita decides to give Lucy a seat. Sharon Rose is going home.
Sophie Plumb – Turning Tables (Adele)
It’s a very karaoke performance. I’m really not feeling it. The song itself vocally isn’t demanding to make me go WOW despite the karaoke performance. Simon says it wasn’t the perfect vocal… It’s a NO from Rita.
Lauren Murray – Say You Love Me (Jessie Ware)
She is so nervous that she appears to be in a daze. Great song choice and Lauren is doing a good job. Well, she pretty much nailed it. Simon thinks it wasn’t that great. But he would give her a chair. Lauren is getting a seat. Lucy Duffield is going home.
TOP 6 GIRLS:
1. Kiera Weathers
