For all you fans, who are hoping wins this week? I'm voting for Lee all the way. He just rocks and is sooo easy on the eyes. Wink

Is there anyone else who is just as upset that Simon is leaving? This will be my last year watching. It just won't be the same without him. Crying or Very sad

I am torn between Crystal and Lee... I love them both and knew long ago it would come down to the two of them... Lee IS easy on the eyes, though, isn't he?? When he's on, he's amazing....

I'm not sure how I feel about Simon leaving. I will probably watch next year - at least at the beginning to see if I still like it. I never really liked Simon, but he does make the show in a lot of ways.

I'm a Lee fan. He has an interesting voice and it's fun to watch him sing.

I like Simon. There are times when he's the only one telling it like it is. Are they going to replace him or just go with three? I think the remaining three aren't going to keep it very interesting. Has anyone else been disappointed with Ellen? She seems very bland. I don't know what I was expecting, maybe a little more humor or edginess.

Yes, I'm also disappointed with Ellen. I was hoping for a ton of laughs from her, but like you said, she is very bland. If she would use her humor more, it would cover up the fact she knows nothing about music. ( other than she likes to dance..lol )

I love Simon, he tells it as he see's it. I especially love him during auditions, some of his response's are priceless! I don't watch American Idol so I can't comment on who to win.

Does anyone know who the other judges will be on X-factor? I like x-factor, the format is so much better. Rather than just solo singers you have groups also.

I am really really torn on who I want to win. I really like them both. Crystal was amazing from the start....whereas Lee has shown so much growth...and I do love his voice (and his face isn't hard to look at either LOL).

I have to say this year, I'm going to be happy either way. Also, I think they are both going to have successful careers no matter who wins. My husband is torn too....we really can't decide because they are both so talented. Casey was also very good (and even easier to look at LOL).....and I wouldn't be surprised if he became a star as well.

We certainly will be watching!!! And as far as Simon...he's a bit much at times...but I'll give next season a shot and see of I like it. I really like to watch how the contestants grow and how they do under the presssure...I often fast foward through the judges anyway.

SOOOOO, what did everyone think?? I thought they were both good, although I do think Crystal was a bit better. I voted for Lee though.... about 20 times Rolling Eyes

I think they both did good. I really don't care for Crystal and I'm really not sure why. I voted for lee for the full two hours and I didn't have any issues getting through at all. Makes me nervous on him winning. I still think the show is kind of rigged. Randy said a month before the season started that a girl would win this season. I think he messed up.
