How cruel? The first results show of The X Factor 2014 was a double elimination – meaning two acts had to leave with only one live week under their belts. And it was Blonde Electra and Overload Generation who had their dreams crushed.
Which also means that Louis Walsh has already had his acts cut in half!
The massive 16 acts had to be trimmed down to only 14 and the zany girl duo received the fewest public votes and had to leave immediately.
They obviously hadn’t struck the right chord with the audiences at home – remember this is the first time the public has had a chance to judge the chosen acts.
The show kicked off with the traditional joint song (still keeping that in then guys?) and there were so many singers on stage it was like watching a school concert.
Still their Anything Could Happen was fun even if you were distracted by all the different acts.
After performances by Pharrell and Taylor Swift it was down to business. Over 2million votes were cast and the wannabes looked thrilled by every single one of them as they were put through to the next round, Chloe Jasmine and Stevi Richie looking most surprised of all!
After Blonde Electra had said their goodbyes, out of the final remaining three acts Stephanie Nala and Overload Generation had to perform again for the judges vote.
It seems the early popular boy band might have lost a few votes to new favourites Stereo Kicks? Their version of A Thousand Years got off to a shaky start and sounded a little deflated.
Stephanie’s distinctive voice shone through as she sang Have You Ever? and it was obviously enough because she was saved.
Simon felt that neither had performed well this week and had ‘no belief’ in Overload Generation, Cheryl obviously picked her girl.
Mel – because she had chosen the group as her wildcard – saved the boys and Louis of course chose his act which meant we went to Deadlock and the public vote revealed that surprisingly Overload Generation were going home.
And so Louis has already lost two of his groups, he really should know better than to keep picking the ‘fun ones’ right? And maybe there really is only room for one boy band and surely Stereo Kicks are now unstoppable?
