A certain unknown quality that is missing from all entrants in talent shows, Any 16 year old wannabe who has her tits out on karaoki and trills up and down the harmonic scales under the sad delusion she is Beyonce, but in reality has no "X-Factor or indeed friends or relatives who can tell her she sucks!!
If you have to enter competitions to find the X-Factor, you aint got it.

The term 'X Factor' refers to an element of 21st century marketing techniques which seeks to capitalize on the sleek, hip, inherent ultra-coolness of young people . . . somehow. No one is quite sure what X Factor really is. If you don't care about it, you've got it. If you want it, you don't have it.
Not to be confused with 'pizazz', which refers to an element of 20th century marketing techniques which sought to capitalize on the hip, fun-loving nature of young people . . . somehow.
Dick: "Your book is great, Tom, but it could use some more X Factor."
Tom: "What's that?"
Dick: "You don't know?"
Tom: "No."
Dick: "Well...that's why you need more of it!"

When a man puts one of his legs over a women while engaging in sexual intercourse, while the woman does the same with the opposite leg, to form an 'X' shape with the intertwined legs.

This is done to gain deeper penetration from the man's penis, in the woman's vagina.
It's not going in deep enough... let's try the X Factor!!!!!!!!

a show in britain and maybe other countries where people audition to become singers. the judges are Louie Walsh (how do you spell Louie?) tulisa, Kelly rowland and Gary Barlow and I think it was created by Simon cowell. i have heard that people think it's a wannabe attempt at American idol which it is not because the show used to be called pop idol and American idol copied pop idol so basically it's not a wannabe attempt at anything. just had to make this to clear the shows name. oh I forgot - it's hosted by dermot oleary and it used to be hosted by Kate thornton.
"You watching x factor?" "yeah" "that Janet devlin girl was good, she should win."
