Well, let’s face facts.  This week, while things could have gone better for Katie…they could also have gone MUCH worse.

She performed Queen’s song, We Are The Champions, the one she screwed up at her first audition.  She must have a real love for this song because, while she sang it well, it doesn’t show off her vocal ability particularly well.  She was received warmly by the crowd but was given mixed feedback from the judge, most of it relating to her, admittedly unusual, choice of attire.

However it turned out that her performance was not enough to show the public that she’s not the ‘bad cop’ she’s been made out to be in the press.  She found herself in the bottom two on Sunday night’s show.  I didn’t get the chance to watch it live as I was rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous at the Apollo Victoria’s 80th Birthday Gala.  However I have just watch it back.

Katie performed ‘Don’t Let Me Down’ as her survival song.  The judges were in agreement that the song suited her much more than the one she sang on Saturday.  Cheryl and Simon voted for their own act and both Danni and Louis chose to keep Katie in the competition until next week.

I am hoping that next week Cheryl lets Katie sing something that shows off the husky, jazzy tones to her voice, preferably one of her own creations although I doubt the X Factor will be allowing original songs on the show!

I will keep supporting Katie until she gives me a reason not to.

Who are you supporting in the show?? Do you agree that F.Y.D and Nicolo should have gone?
