High School Musical… Love it or hate it (I fall somewhere in between) but one thing you can’t deny is that it has been a huge success. Maybe not musically (in my opinion at least) but from a business perspective.

And admit it, these days everything is about the green, well brown (UK money :D) stuff.

And that so called “singing” competition everyone talks about these days? You know..the one sponsored by pot noodles… X Factor, that’s the one!

Do you know what the ‘X’ stands for in that? No, neither do I but i have pretty good idea. It’s all about sellability. Ok, I’m no expert (even though I pretend to be) but take it from me now - Rhydian, even though he is the better singer by far, is not going to win. It’ll be those fairy tale duo, “Same Difference” that performed the high school musical song a few weeks ago. They’re just so sellable (High School Musical = Little (hm, even big I guess) kids + Xmas just around the corner = have a guess?)

Actually, they’ve been sold already. All they need to need to do is piggy back on the success high school musical has had. After millions of little kids have seen them perform the HSM hit, they’ll be flocking to buy their single. and when will it be released? Just before christmas… Coincidence? Er…no, I don’t think so.

[…] The Day I found out that X-Factor was actually a singing competition - I mean, who’d have thought that? […]

Same difference ended up coming third. Your predictions wernt quite right :P. However, Rhydian dint win so it evens itself out a bit. That scottish guy Leon won in the end. Not fair!
