it’s got to a point where it doesn’t matter whether louis was a judge right from the beginning, whether he’s like one of x factor’s limbs. like the contestants, it does come to a point where the judges have offered all that they have to offer, and louis has come to that point (he came to it a few years ago, too).

he consistently undermines his acts and it has been proven that, when they take their own lead and essentially ignore louis, they do MUCH better. so why is he needed? i thought that the judges were there to improve and mentor their acts, not ruin them.

this sing-off he even went as far as to imply that he’s obligated to pick stereo kicks because they’re in his category but, if they weren’t, he’d have picked lola.

that’s not even mentioning the fact that he CHOSE stereo kicks to be in his top 3, then he basically implied that he has no faith in them and that they should not have as many members.

that’s not even mentioning the fact that he consistently picks novelty acts – he put blonde electra through over concept, for example. he put jedward through. he put wagner through. he put all these acts through, and they’re always the most annoying, so why is he still there?

he has NOTHING to offer, except failure. the contestants are always saying, “oh, louis is great!!” but this year they do voice their concerns. because they know that, if they had a different mentor, they’d be doing way better.

it’s not fair on the contestants.
