Every year X Factor becomes one of the hottest topics in the media, they change their line-up more frequently than the Sugababes and each cycle becomes more over the top than the last. But whether you like or loathe it, here’s our top 17 reasons for tuning in this year…

1. Dermott’s Bulge:xfactor-bulge2

2. Nicole’s hair has more personality than some of the acts

11. The second half of Nicole’s name is ZINGER!

Zinger verb; An exclamation of ownership. To win over someone else.

So, when Nicole’s act is in the bottom two, and she wins – she would say:

14. After they give it their all, Gary is still happy attempting to be the new Simon
