Dear 888ladies & 888gents X Factor fans!

We have the results in for this week’s X Factor survey including which 3 roomies who won 10,000LPs each just for taking part in our X Factor Survey Raffle!

I can tell you from your results that Cheryl edges out Simon by 3% for the most popular judge with Dannii and Louis languishing behind with 13% and 7% respectively!

Your favourite to win the X Factor is Stacey who has a 4% lead over Olly….poor Lloyd was last with a mere 1% of all the votes cast! Do you agree?

The majority of you think that the ‘Dead Lock’ IS a kop out and that the ‘FRO MUST GO’!

A massive 83% of you either watch both shows on Saturday and Sunday or ALL the X Factor shows, including the Xtra Factor! Wow, you are a bunch of X Factor obsessives!

Finally, over 80% of you either ALWAYS or SOMETIMES play 888ladies when watching the X Factor and from the information gathered, the city that you live closest to is Manchester! No wonder you stay in doors and play 888ladies whilst watching the X Factor all the time !!

Now the result that you have all been waiting for…who will get the 10,000LPs for taking part….the lucky roomies who were the first 3 to be drawn were: feefee66; lilmissbevan; uniform01

Dear 888ladies & 888gents

We all know how important our health is to us all, our families our friends and as we have so many members in our 888ladies family, and this is health week here on 888ladies, why not try and help each other?

Our health issues can be big or some small but when you are sick, simply getting better is the thing that you want to sort out the most, straight away! Whilst we haven’t got the answers to everything, especially with serious illnesses, maybe we could do, as the Americans say, “pay it forward”, in other words help each other.

Therefore, if you have got any health tips for your fellow roomies, whether it be from personal experience with herbal remedies, acupuncture or even Feng Shui, then let your fellow roomies know what worked for you and what illness you were treating. Even if you don’t want to get into the specifics, maybe just giving fellow roomie family members an alternative to a treatment that simply isn’t working, may work out really well for someone you didn’t even know was poorly. Not only will you be helping 888ladies family members but I will throw some LPs in there for some of the best suggestions or stories about how you overcame health problems with an unusual method no-one was even thinking about.

We know that none of these are guaranteed and medicines need to be administered by a G.P. or licensed medical staff, but it could give a roomie a new direction to combat an illness that simply can’t be shrugged off with conventional medicine.

So let us know!

Dear 888ladies & 888gents

I said a few weeks ago that the increase of the LPs given for Chat Games in the VIP Room, Champagne Time, from 2,000LPs to 5,000LPs, was only the beginning of making our most loyal roomies feel more special….now is the time for the next step!

…..And it comes in the form of an oh so powerful vote from an oh so tiny lady.

No one living on planet Earth could have escaped the drama caused by Simon last Sunday night. Was he wrong not to save Lucie when she unquestionably has a better voice than Jedward? Was he right to give Jedward the chance to stay in another week when they undoubtedly give a great performance? Or simply, was the only correct thing to do, to leave it up to the public vote?

I’m in the camp of Simon always does whatever he wants, so you can’t really judge him like an ordinary person. He’s on Planet Simon, just like Jedward as he politely put it, are on their own planet. There are too many coincidences in favour of Simon for things to just happen by chance. We have a rock week to suit his rocker Jamie. A Queen week to umm…suit his rocker Jamie. When it’s big band week he gives a rock song to his favourite darling Jamie. Are you seeing a pattern here?

What’s Simon’s obsession with him? Is it because Simon wants to expand his reach into the rock world and this is his legitimate way in? Or does he think that Jamie needs all the help he can get? Surely not.

What I do know though is that rules for Simon just don’t exist. Heaven forbid we should claim that one his boys sings karaoke, is not daring enough with his songs or won’t make it further than singing down at his local pub. There are clearly double standards for his beloveds and they can never be criticised. Louis and his rule book may be a tad annoying but I actually think that he has a point. Let’s not forget that Simon is the producer of the show and can make up his own rules as he goes along. The other judges don’t have that luxury. Also, Simon is Simon and the public love to hate him which seems to work in his favour. Again, a power that the other judges don’t have.

However, I’m pleased to say that it was thumbs up to Dannii this week!!! She showed Simon that he shouldn’t have put the survival of Lucie at stake when he could have easily saved her last week. Now he knows how it feels to have a strong performer like Jamie up against a weaker yet more popular singer like Lloyd. So, Lloyd stays and Jamie’s out. And it hurts Simon….doesn’t it! But two can play that game and it seems that Dannii has one up on you this time.

Tara for now

p.s. on the side – I thought that Jedward were genuinely great this week! I even gave them a little round of applause

Dear 888ladies & 888gents

Did you ever wonder what it would be like to be right THERE at the X Factor studios and see how the show is made and enjoy everything that you love about X Factor in the flesh!!??!!

Well pollybear, had such a luxury when she won a pair of VIP tickets to the show earlier this month!

She traveled down with her guest to the studios in London and was mesmerized by the whole VIP package and seeing how the X Factor is put together, behind the scenes….here is my interview with her.

agent: So, how was it?

pollybear: Amazing! The hotel, the luxury Mercedes car that picked us up and of course the experience itself of seeing the X Factor!

agent: Fantastic! Tell me everything from the beginning!

pollybear: Well, we traveled down by train from the gloom to sunny London, which was a great change of scenery for us! We arrived at the hotel, which was amazing and were given a beautiful room! When we were set to go, the chauffeur, who was early, phoned us to come down and told us that we had to leave for the studio before the scheduled time as there was a SPECIAL GUEST who was going to be singing that night!

agent: Wow! Who was that?

pollybear: Well, we already knew that were getting Bon Jovi, he is too gorgeous by the way…., and JLS but we got to see Shakira as well, they were recording her in advance for the show tonight! Bon Jovi has the top selling album at the moment and JLS have the number 1 single at the moment, can’t say better than that!

agent: Did you see any celebs when you were there?

pollybear: We saw Derren Brown and the Backstreet Boys in the crowd behind us, they were going to be on the Xtra Factor later on….we also sat and chatted with Stacey Solomon’s family but the most exciting thing of the night was that was the night Rachel was voted off!!! It was bedlum over there, she has an amazing voice but Simon knew what he was doing, he controls everything!

agent: What do you mean?

pollybear: He is the linchpin in everything over there. Everything that happens is based around him and this is what I enjoyed as much as the show itself, seeing how everything worked! The floor managers use him as a timer, telling him to speak more or less to fill in time till the ad breaks….then when the adverts are on, they all run around doing the judge’s make up, in fact they do their make up at every opportunity!

This is pollybear’s view from her seat, she was soundly told off for taking this so there is only one!

pollybear: After the show we had food and drink, which was great before our fantastic chauffeur called us as he was there with the Merc outside. We then went to one of Gary Rhode’s restaurants, which was more of a bar than a restaurant, I think that he has two, the other one is a more conventional restaurant but there, I had the most expensive cocktail….

agent008: How much was it?

pollybear: It was £10 and then I had the most expensive but the best Irish Coffee that I had ever had which was £9.95 but as this was the only thing that we paid for, thanks to 888ladies, it was fine!

pollybear: I am the envy of everyone at work, it was a fabulous experience, we even got t-shirts, I gave mine to one of the girls at work.

pollybear: Is seems that I always win with 888ladies, in the Advent Calendar competition last year, I won a Nintendo Wii, so that is two in a row…I win nothing with anyone else….

So there it is, maybe pollybear will get a hatrick of wins with us over the coming months – watch this space!! But there are still X Factor tickets up for grabs so keep playing on the Instant Games!! GL ALL!
