The X Factor Season 2

by Todd Betzold

 

The season premiere of The X Factor Season 2 kicked off with a bang last night and we saw a lot of Britney Spears, but Demi Lovato stole the show at the very end when she connected with a contestant on a whole ‘nother level. It was a touching moment and even brought a tear to Simon Cowell's eye!!! What can tonight bring?

 

We start back in San Francisco tonight to see what night two brings on X Factor! We first look at Johnny Mitchell, who is a 16 year old student, who drove 2 ½ hours with his Mom to get to the audition. They have been showing a lot of behind the stage looks at the judges, especially Britney Spears and Demi Lovato. I am liking it, how about you? The judges arrive and Johnny takes the stage. He sang an original song, which is always risky, but he nailed it. He sang great and threw some rap in there and even got L.A. singing along with him. L.A. said he is exactly what we need and amazing accomplished for someone his age. Britney said he is so passionate and fun to watch and adorably cute. Demi said he has swag. Simon said he was suspect about his vocals when he started and he is a better rapper than singer, but he has that steel in his eyes and ambition. A great start to the night and four yeses for Johnny and he is attacked by his family on the stage!

 

Next up is Lexa Berman, who is a 22 year old dancer, and Paige Stroobah, who is a 19 year old model/actress. Lexa tells Paige that she can act, sing and dance and has it all and tells Paige if you don't have what it takes then you better watch out. So, Paige has her boobs flopping out of her shirt and is conceited, so she will be bad and Paige will be awesome? Lexa hits the stage and Simon said she is Jersery Shore meets the Kardashians and he likes that combination. She sounds decent, but it is nothing special. Britney said it was like one tone and it was boring. Demi said she came off as over-confident and it wasn't likable. Simon said she wasn't the best singer in the world and he likes her attitude, but most people won't and he says yes. Britney and Demi say no, so she is sent home! Paige said in the holding room that now they know what we don't need to do.

 

Next up is Dylan Osborn, who tried to work the eyes with Demi, but his singing sucked and he was sent home. The sexiness continues, but it is all bad news as they all can't sing, but look easy on the eyes. The judges are getting annoyed as San Francisco is letting them down and they have not seen any good talent hit the stage besides Johnny.

 

Jason Brock, who is 34 years old and works Tech Support. He is a queen of the night and he said he is about to feed Britney with some talent and he is amazing and the judges are going to be wow, they've never seen anyone like him. So, he is annoying as crap, a big diva and is dressed all crazy, but this queen can sing! He gave me chills and hits some amazing notes and shocked me with it and the judges. L.A., Britney and Demi gave him a standing ovation. Simon said he was preparing himself for the worst and then suddenly they were at his audition. Britney said it was amazing and she was thoroughly entertained. L.A. said every songwriter would want him to sing their song. Demi said it makes me want to fall in love with you and all four judges say yes, so no more tech support for Jason.

 

We are now in Providence, RI and get a look at a cake shop making them an X Factor cake. The judges arrive, yet again, for some more auditions. We first look at Pat Ford, who is 20 years old and a cashier. He said he thinks Britney Spears might be his sister and it was destiny that she is judging. He takes the stage and brings out roses for Britney, which seems to creep her out. He sings "Circus" by Britney, of course. He was horrendous and his dance moves were even worse, yet he thinks he is good. Simon said it was like he had an argument with Britney, got drunk and then screamed the song at her. The judges say no and he creepily stands on the stage and Simon gets the flowers for her.

 

The judges get their cake and eat it too before we take a look at the last singer of the night, who is Carly Rose Sonenclar and she is a 13 year old student. She is a little cutie and she is there with her parents, who are there to support their daughter. Carly Rose is hoping Britney and Demi and look at her and see she is where they were at one time. She has an awesome voice and is very enjoyable and has that old school voice and soul like Rachel Crow had on Season 1. I loved her! Britney said wow and she is a little dive and unbelievable. L.A. said she may be 13, but her soul is old. Simon said a star has just walked out on that stage and he really likes her. Demi said she wants to buy her music right now. All four judges give her a yes and she is moving on!

 

The X Factor airs on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 8/7c on FOX.
