Their demographic (teenage girls) don’t vote in the same volume as the demographic which preferred acoustic hat-wearer Matt Cardle (mums and that).
The X-Factor voting public tends to be an older demographic than yer streamers and music buyers, innit.
Was possibly my favourite ever X Factor moment, when Cardle won and One Direction came on stage to congratulate him, Harry Styles gave Cardle a big hug and said in his ear, just loud enough for the mics to pick up, “You’re going to get so much pussy for this”.
it was lipreading, man
Marvel are really scraping the bottom of the barrel for their superheroes now
Aww, my memory made it better than it was.
Still good though.
In that case, how come Little Mix won? Were they up against a similar group? Or had times changed?
They changed it so you could vote online/through an app I think, because Cowell was sick of people who couldn’t make him money winning it. Also little mix were better singers than one direction, which helps with the older vote
Wasn’t Honey G a joke about white people rapping?
are racists not just ill people being exploited?
seems a bit reductive to me
yeah but stupid and ignorant people are more likely to be racist.
Nobody with half a decent education and a brain could possibly be racist, it’s such a stupid concept.
Do you want to defeat racism or just point the finger and feel good?
mate it’s your world, I don’t even give a shit as I will be dead within a year.
Your world, your choice.
I won’t bother, you’re the winner.
sorry alright!
fucking shit world
maybe this isn’t helpful,
but we were all babies once and had such hopes and potential. Some of us were corrupted by our environment and education and genes and ended up with terrible views, isn’t that awful?
I should know better but I find this hard to believe. I’m haunted all the time by the harm I’ve caused other people, guess I’m projecting. Hopefully we will all be dead soon anyway and there can be some peace at last.
don’t even know who that is!
