Is This For Real

People have had their opinions on Alexandra's rise through X Factor this year... A person who I'm not going to name said that "She always makes victory speeches before she has actually won... like she's going to defiantly win..."

After her performance tonight she starts crying and explains how she couldn't have done it without her mentor Cheryl Cole, plus other things that I have now forgotten.

Well, I believe that she will now get a substantial number of votes just for crying. And I wondered why Ruth Lorenzo got booted off the show last week...

Ruth Lorenzo Reminds Me Of...

After listening to Ruth Lorenzo speak after her performance on the X Factor tonight, I clarified something about her... She reminds me of Shakira.

I've thought this for quite a while actually. She, of course, has relations with Shakira due to them both being Latin, in one form or another. Ruth is from Spain, whereas Shakira is from South America, Colombia.

It isn't just these two connections, however, that, for me, links the two. I also believe that Ruth looks like Shakira, if only a little.

I hope that Ruth gets through tonight. Like Simon Cowell has said, she's a real woman, plus she is Spanish. For me, seeing a Latino on the X Factor, is a breath of fresh air...
