It's the first X Factor live show this weekend and a theme has been chosen.
The Radio Times reports that in place of Halloween, the opening theme will be one of 'This Is Me'. Nothing to do with the Demi Lovato song (TUNNNE), rather the finalists will each perform a song they feel shows who they are as an artist.
Sounds good to us, and makes a VERY nice change from the rather tired and dated themes of recent years. ABBA week, anyone?
Those in the live shows this time around are Mason Noise, Seann Miley Moore and Che Chesterman for the Boys category, Louisa Johnson, Lauren Murray and Kiera Weathers in the Girls category, Groups Reggie n Bollie, 4th Impact and Alien Uncovered, and finally Overs contenders Buspi Brown, Max Stone and Anton Stephans.
The X Factor airs from 8PM on Saturday evening on ITV.
Louisa Johnson - Ain't Nobody (Chakha Kahn)
like Tamera did
or If I Were A Boy
Lauren Murray - Who You Are (Jessie J)
Kiera Weathers - Don't Be So Hard On Yourself Jess Glynne
Mason - The Weeknd Can't Feel My Face
Chris Brown Turn Up The Music
These are your suggestions / guesses? I love the Ain't Nobody suggestion. Tamera slayed that so much. But I don't think it fits "This is Me" tbh. She should do Hello Louisa is actually hard to decide for. I don't want her doing ballads from 500 years ago every week, but I want her at her best.
Don't want Lauren to touch WYA.
Kiera should do something thats her "IM HERE" moment. Rita already suggested she would have her do the most exciting stuff. I'd like her to do Cover Drive's Twilight, although I'm probably the only person (in the world) who remembers it.
4th Power have made amazing song choices so I'm not worried for them.
Bupsi needs something amazingly sexy but I don't want her to include the word Nasty before she turns into a one trick pony. IMO, a good choice - Hot Stuff.
So yeah my suggestions:
Louisa - Rolling in the Deep (Adele) or Tattooed Heart (Ariana Grande)
Lauren - Valerie (Amy Winehouse)
Kiera - Twilight (Cover Drive) or Put Your Records On (Corrine Bailey Rae)
4th Power - Emotions (Mariah Carey)
Bupsi - Hot Stuff (Donna Summer)
I wonder if they'll reveal some of the song choices on XTRA tomorrow night then?
Live performers so far:
Ben Haenow - Saturday 31st October
Little Mix - Sunday 1st November
Ellie Goulding - Sunday 1st November
Fleur East - 7 or 8 November
Adele:
"It would have to depend on who's in the final. It depends who's in it. If they're rubbish, then no, I won't," she said.
Adele revealed: "There was Ella Henderson, I used to like. But she didn't make it at the time.

Louisa needs to sing current songs if she wants to get to the finale. Now that I think about it, they may just let her cruise through to the finale just so they have someone that can duet with Adele

Could you imagine if Adele really did the duet though? They'd need to book two other huge stars like Rihanna and Robbie Williams or something. It'd be really awkward if one person had Adele and the other two had like Labrinth and Ellie Goulding

What?
Pretty sure the contestants would prefer to have Ellie over Robbie
Sis like it or not, Robbie is a legend. I'm not a fan but come on
Robbie is no where near as famous or popular as he once was though... He's not a legend worldwide, in the UK yes, but at least Ellie is very much well known WW, unlike Robbie.
Why would anyone want to perform with Robbie if Ellie was a choice...

This is X Factor UK though. Robbie will get the housewife vote. Ellie... not so much. It's like saying Ellie is more known than Kylie Minogue because she's irrelevant in the US, which is obviously just not true.
Altho tbh I only said Robbie coz I couldn't think of a relevant male artist that wasn't Justin Bieber / Ed / Sam
I need Josh and Havva back in my life
