Well it's Monday morning and I've not got a lot to post about yet today, so here's something a bit off the wall to get the week started.
As some may know, Simon Cowell's American Idol began life here in the UK as Pop Idol, a format which he has now evolved into the hugely popular Saturday night show The X-Factor. Simon sits on the judges panel with Sharon Osbourne, Dannii Minogue (who you may have heard of) and Louis Walsh (who you will almost certainly not have heard of). After Saturday's show we are now down to the last five, with Welsh vocalist Rhydian the clear favourite to win the final which I guess will be broadcast around Christmas. It took me a while to find a link to his rendition of 'Somewhere' from Saturday night as the network us making YouTube pull them as fast as people can upload links, but I managed to find the video on another site and wondered what the perspective is on him from across the pond :

So has Rhydian got the X-Factor?
