After saying there is no talent on the X-Factor, and being challenged by judge Simon Cowell to go and sing live next weekend on the X-Factor, Girls Aloud have said that actually, there is talent on the X-Factor. Despite the fact they said that there was none.
Actually, that's not entirely fair. It might just be Nicola who thinks there's no talent on the show. As previously reported, OK Magazine quoted her as saying "I don't think the talent is that good this time round. Seriously, if that's what Britain has got then we're dying on our arses!"
Anyway, the girls, who are managed by X-Factor 'King Of Pop' Louis Walsh, remember, deny those comments. The band's Cheryl Tweedy said 'Good Luck' to all the contestants in a statement on the band's official website and protested "Me and the girls haven't been slagging off the contestants on the show," she said "We've been watching it and we have been texting the show to support Maria, Shayne, Nicholas and others. We know exactly what they're going through as we had to perform in front of a live audience every week a few years ago."
And still do perform in front of live audiences on a fairly regular basis, surely?
