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.

A shit music talent seeking series that in the end, the losers are the real winners. known for manufacturing JLS, one direction and loads more retarded acts i don't wanna name cuz i'll get sick if i do.
Simon Cowell should just shut down X factor for life, cuz it's ruining the music industry with all their talentless excuses for artists

X factor (also know as X or ecks) is one of the best History Teachers on the planet Earth. He is known for showing tv clips and movies in his classes, and is a teacher that is actually relatively in touch with his students. Students tend to actually learn things in his class, and are rarely bored.

Derrick was incredibly skilled and talented at football, and his Superstar X Factor was his ability to never be tackled.

A pathetic waste of tv programming time disguised as a glorified karaoke contest. Hundreds, thousands, maybe millions all over Australia audition for this stupid show hoping to be the next Kelly Clarkson or Adam Levine. They eliminate the ones who are actually talented early in the show, leaving tween fangirls to vote for the best-looking and least talented contestants who are there only to slaughter every song ever written. Like other tv "talent" shows, it is usually hosted by some washed-up pop star or actor who used to be good. The judges are usually pretty washed-up themselves. After all the hype is over and they're done making fangirls piss their pants over the winner, the winner is usually forgotten, disappearing into the void reserved especially for them. This will happen every year until everyone is sick of anything Simon Cowell (see "wanker") related and switches from Channel 7 to SBS.
Sam: Hey man did you hear that Reece won the X Factor Australia this year?
Vassy: That little faggot won? Yeah big fucking surprise. Had the fangirls' vote. Obvious from the start
