WHAT'S GOING ON?
It has recently been confirmed that this week's X Factor theme is Queen. This means that the remaining seven hopefuls will perform tracks from Queen's back catalogue on Saturday night's live show. Presenter Glenda Gilson revealed the theme on the Irish programme Xposé recently. She said: "Queen is the theme for next week, so I think it is 'Radio Ga Ga' for [John & Edward]." Queen are a band famous for their songs which include the likes of 'Show Must Go On' and 'We Are The Champions'. Wikipedia writes this about Queen: 'Queen were an English rock band which formed in London in 1970 following the demise of the band Smile. Queen consisted of vocalist Freddie Mercury, guitarist Brian May, bassist John Deacon and drummer Roger Taylor. The band became popular with audiences through their hit singles, live performances, originality and showmanship; and in 2007 were voted the greatest British band ever in a national BBC poll.' But which Queen songs will the remaining acts sing? Seven acts remain in The X Factor and this weekend they battle it out to stay in the competition.

Could Hollie Steel be on your Christmas tree? Britain's Got Talent star Hollie Steel has revealed that she is planning to release a single or an album in time for Christmas. The eleven year old, who became famous after making it through to the final of Britain's Got Talent's third series, hopes to compete against the X Factor winner in the charts. The Sun newspaper claims that the young singer has already recorded an album after school and at weekends, which has been funded by the money she earnt on the Britain's Got Talent tour. The record is expected to be released online before the end of the year, but Hollie's mum hopes to put it in the shops, currently looking to get a producer to help them get the single or album in the shops in time for the festive season. Hollie's mum Nina Steel said: "We're doing this for her because it's what she wants to do and she's got all these songs she wants everybody to hear. It's a really special experience for an 11-year-old to go into a recording studio, but she just takes it in her stride and is still the same Hollie." At the same time the winning X Factor act will have their Christmas single out. Will Hollie stand a chance against The X Factor's winner? Britain's Got Talent continues in 2010.
According to The Mirror X Factor judge Cheryl Cole has been offered a guest spot in the next series of Doctor Who. For those of you who don't know Cheryl Cole (shame on you), she is a singer (both solo and as part of Girls Aloud) and she is also a judge on the countries top talent search, The X Factor. She has worked hard to this day to make her one of the most famous people in the country and one of the few names on everybody's lips. If the sources are to be believed the BBC want the British sensation in the TARDIS alongside new Doctor Matt Smith. The talk is of a cameo role but if she can act the star could be offered a longer part. A BBC spokesperson refused to confirm this speculation, saying: "The BBC will not be commenting on casting or storyline speculation for the new series of Doctor Who." Meanwhile another source seemed eager to speak saying: "If she can find the time, a part will be written for her." The fifth series of Doctor Who will broadcast on BBC One and BBC HD during Spring. But will Cheryl star or have we been misled? Would you like Cheryl in Doctor Who? After all she's one of the most loved females in the country. Getting her involved with Doctor Who would be great for the BBC show.
John and Edward Grimes will reportedly incorporate an image of Simon Cowell in their upcoming X Factor performance this Saturday. According to The Mirror, choreographer Brian Friedman will include the show boss in John & Edward's routine of Ghostbusters. The theme is music from the movies and Ghostbusters seems the most appropriate for the lively twins who enjoy a bit of a laugh. An X Factor source said: "Brian is working out if it is possible for Cowell to appear as a ghostly figure on stage, or whether someone can float onto the stage with a Cowell face mask on. The boys, dressed as Ghostbusters, will then exterminate the figure using lasers. The audience would love it and it might even bring a smile to the real Simon Cowell. Another idea was for Cowell to be 'slimed' but he wouldn't put up with that, and given that he is an executive producer on the show, he would veto that idea. But you can rest assured it will be another special performance from the twins. Many of the acts are doing ballads this week because of the movies theme, which means they won't move around too much. That leaves Brian even more time to work with the twins and create a chaotic three-minute act." The X Factor continues on Saturday evening.
