I've read that there have been some changes to the arrangements for X-Factor 09. Apparently they have raised the minimum age from 14 back up to 16 for the boys and girls groups (16-24). I think it's for the best!

Categories for next year haven’t been confirmed yet but are expected to be the same as this year - Girls 16-24, Boys 16-24, 25s and Overs and Groups.

As far as I know, the four judges will remain as are but there will be trouble for sure now that Cheryl Cole will be paid £750,000 more than Dannii Minogue for working on the new series!

There will still be a brat told that it's 'very promising, through to the next round' and it'll then burst into tears and admit that it's only six done up to look 16... In fact, I'll have a fiver on it - though not on the age 6 part...

After the disaster with Nadine (from Girls Aloud) at Fame Academy lying about her age, I'd see X-Factor will make sure that everyone is what they say they are!

Almost got to see the judges today in Brum, decided instead to go and work.

Boot Camp starts this weekend - this is where the fun really begins!

Nobody watching this programme this weather?

What was with Whitney Houston on X-factor this weekend?

I know that she hasn't been on stage for six years but she interviewed DREADFULLY on the live stage with Dermot - no eye-contact, loads of ums, mumbling...... totally weird.

I'm also weighting to see when Lloyd gets the heave-ho! It must be his baby face and its affect on the female public that is to congratulated for his staying so long in the competition because it sure as heck isn't his voice?

He sounds a like a hoarse yodeler!
