They aren't judges, they are advocates and competing with each other and it makes me sick. Nicole brings out the not so nice person in Paula more.

Last night Chris really impressed me. I hope he at least makes it to the top 3. I would like the top 3 to be Melanie, Rachel and Chris

Ok, Nicole Sherzinger is officially a moron. I cannot believe she could not say Marcus' name and because of that Rachel is gone amazing

Wow! Rachel is 10x more talented than Marcus. Hope today's judges vote ends Nicole tenure as a X-Factor judge. Time to switch Kelly Rowland to the X Factor USA and bring back Cheryl Cole to the UK. Simon must be kicking himself in the behind for dumping Cheryl Cole for Nicole.

I honestly don't know if ill watch this show next year. I just don't care for the set up and the judges just grate on my nerves. I would stop watching this year but I love melanie and want to keep supporting her. The silver lining??? The booingby the audience of nicole. Fire this girl and bring the english chick back

I won't watch this show next year if either LA Reid or Nicole return as judges. LA is a complete ****. It's all about HIM winning and not finding the best talent. Even when he tries to say something nice about another judge's contestant he does it by giving them a condensing backhanded slap like 'I wanted to hate your performance' or 'I didn't expect that good a performance from you but....." Please go away LA and take Nicole with you. I suspect that LA and Nicole have an agreement to vote out any of Simon's contestants before each others, if possible. This show isn't about talent anymore, it's all about LA Reid's nasty side and huge ego in wanting to beat Simon.

AND......Nicole lacked the profesional attitude that she should have been able to compose.......she was actually on stage, turned her back to the cameras, & when the mc asked for a comment, turned her back & barried her face in her hands. She is not a good judge for this or any show! It really doesn't matter.......Marcus will go next......or should! But, I think that Rachel did outstanding on her sing off number & might have gotten some more supporters next wk. Marcus was just so..so on the sing off # & unless any of the other 3 screw up next wk, he's gone too. This is Simon's show..........any guess on if Nicole will be invited back as a judge next season.........NOT!

I hate to be a b itch but I was so happy when the audience booed Nicole. She will not be back, she behaves like an idiot. I mean come on, she had Dexter as her final 4, that right there was enough to tell me the fool wouldn't know talent if it jumped up and smacked her, which I would like to do right now.

Nicole, as a judge, was given a job to do and she couldn't do it. She knew good and well that Rachel did the better job tonight and should have stayed. What a travesty! I don't know how she can face that audience next week. Powers that be,FIRE HER IMMEDIATELY!

This show was an absolute travesty tonight. I hope Nicole gets booed right off the show and takes that goonie LA along with her.

I like Marcus but he has been in the bottom and saved how many times? Three now? Nicole needs to get a clue.

I like Simon & Paula as judges/mentors......I DO NOT LIKE LA & Nicole. As I said b/4, this is Simon's show.........I think that for sure, Nicole will not be back. I will be surprised if LA is invited back. If Melanie would have been bottom 2 instead of Rachel,.............the results would have been the same: Paula would have voted to save Malanie & Nicole would have pulled her blunder........Marcus would be gone. I can see Rachel being a hit on the Disney Channel (look at what it did for several others). AND, Rachel has already proven than she has talent! Chris, Melanie, Josh.....F3 I like them all & really don't have a fav.

oh, seriously, Simon makes the rules because it is his show and there is no way children should be competing with adults, what they did was cruel, they should be called in by youth services. For all the drama, (fake drama) I think it is wrong to run the show this way - judges can be idiots, but it is the producers who really run this show and others. I don't care is I disagree with the judges or other people watching, but to run a show the way they run this show is so wrong.

Said the same thing last week...this is one more example why these shows should not have children this young on the show. It does need to be pointed out that Nicole did NOT send Rachel home. America sent Rachel home.

Well, based on the last chance songs they sang I think Rachel clearly was the best. Based on that alone should have redeemed her with the public and if Nicole had any balls at all she should have sent Marcus home and then the America's lowest wouldn't even come in to play,

I really really dislike Nicole. And the judging "system". I would have been booing too. Why oh why didn't Simon keep the other female judge and never bring Nicole in?

The last chance song was there for the JUDGES to judge and Nicole did not do that. And I'm not fond of L A either.

Keldogg, I'm in total agreement with you. Sorry America, YOU voted Rachel out! Booing Nicole not only was disrespectful to her but Marcus as well. He is a young kid too and didn't deserve to stand there while the audience booed Nicole and the results. Where were all these people the night before when voting was going on? Now, with that said, I believe this was all for ratings at Rachel's expense and that is disgusting. I don't believe Rachel was going to win anyway and maybe it's best if she goes now because the closer she got, the harder it would be for her to except the defeat. JMO I hate the way the judges have berated these kids for their own glory. They really need to change things next year.

This show was a trainwreck last night. I was shocked when Nicole kept looking at LA when asked who she was sending home . . . I felt so bad for Rachel. At 14, the maturity level is just not there yet to take that kind of rejection in front of millions of people. I hope that Disney does hire her - she'd be perfect. Marcus, you need to go next. There's a reason you keep being in the bottom.

I didn't watch. In fact, I've only watched a few episodes -- one during auditions, and two one week for live eliminations. And I wasn't impressed with Nicole then, either. She pretty much said the same thing to every contestant. I'm not sure what chops she has to be a judge or advocate on this show. She can sing, sort of, but she's mostly part of a manufactured girl group that has lots of backup singers and lots of dancing. I also thought LA Reid was a jerk with the "I wanted to hate you but..." statements. I thought Rachel was a good singer, but I'm not sure someone as young as she has the true "X factor." She can sing, but there's more than just singing to make a star. Look at American Idol. Most of the "singers" there haven't really done all that well unless they had "it."

yes, alot of the contestants are told they will sell many records, will make the charts, etc. but very very few of all of the Idol singers are heard from again . . including most of the winners.

Well, I think Rachel, despite her age, had "it". She has singing talent, great stage presence, vibrant personality, good, quick sense of humor and smiles like there is no tomorrow. I think for someone who was 12 (and the youngest!) and just turned 13, she showed great maturity and strengths to be able to hang in there in this business. I think her breakdown at the very end was a release of all the tension and stress of the moment. She is an amazing kid and I hope she gets mentored properly to go far in this business.
