Top 16 for Live Shows Decided

Simon was in the middle of choosing his Groups, putting all the contenders so far on to seats. Sweet Suspense start the rest of the programme. These are three girls who were axed as single acts, Celine, Millie and Summer. Worryingly nervous start to Wishing On A Star but the crowd really liked them and they got their act together and delivered a good performance overall. Aged 14 to 17, they're fun and will make the Live Shows. They take Wild Thingz place. the two boys were cool but probably wouldn't have got far.

Mario's commentary keeps going on about the Switch and the Four Chair Challenge as if he's being paid by the number of times the new terminology gets mentioned on air. I feel like calling him up and saying that it'll all be over soon.

Next Tatum and Monique from a place called Lubbock, Texas. Good ol' Country girls. Haven't got any so far. They're fun and bouncy - quite chunky. Yellowhouse Canyon is the group name. Not sure why. I don't see them making it. Simon sends them home and the crowd isn't too happy. I think he has another idea to capture the Country vote.

Another manufactured little boy band. Some dodgy notes. Too many for my liking. The lead seemed to be the older guy and he was flat. The younger two looked as if they knew well they didn't do a good job. It's a bit sad as they'd been given some hope by being rescued from the last round. Amazingly, Simon puts this lot, Forever In Your Mind in place of Glamour. Odd.

Good News. Two nice girls. Great harmonies. They look fun and quite cute too, without being too teeny. They do Landslide which is a nice track but it is a bit boring and not good enough for any of the judges. So they have quite a quick exit.

Oh boy. Alex & Sierra do You're The One That I Want. It worked. They are so old American style, cute in an old way. Demi has them down as her favourite act in the competition. She asks about whether they's split up which is a bit silly. They're in for sure. Who goes this time? Girls United are out.

Last group is Roxxy Montana. Three sisters who have been pretty stunning so far. This was another impressive performance of the Michael Jackson track. They'll be in and they take Forever In Your Mind's spot. That makes sense and leaves Simon with a strong set.
