It's Getting Down To The Wire, But Misha B Is STILL Our Fave!

We can't believe it's almost over!

We're getting closer and closer to the end of X Factor UK.

The competition was tough last night, but Misha B is still our fave.

She flawlessly sang Pink's F-cking Perfect and Dancing in the Streets.

And despite what judge Gary Barlow says about Misha not having a chance to win the competition, we still think she can pull it off.

Watch her performance (above) and more AFTER THE JUMP and tell us what U think! Will Misha B make it to the very end??

Is Gary Barlow Quitting X Factor??

gary-barlow-to-leave-x-factor-uk.jpg

Unfortunately, it looks like a yes.

The Take That singer revealed that he will most likely NOT be returning to X Factor next year so that he can spend more time with his family.

After just one year on the hit UK show, it seems like Gary Barlow's departure will be yet another blow to the series this year.

While out at the Children In Need Rocks event that he organized, Gary hinted:

"I’m taking some time off next year to remind myself who my children are and what their names are.

Next year doesn’t even feel like it’s approaching. We’re in a bubble down there. It’s been good to leave London. We get tied up with our own importance."

We'll be sad to see him go, but we understand his decision.

We think we have a good idea for his replacement though…. PEREZ!!

Take That Treks On Without Robbie Williams!

That That old school picture memories

Despite Robbie Williams' departure (again), the English boy band is moving forward.

Take That has been under speculation of an inevitable end with the second exit of Robbie, but their rep confirms they're all simply taking a break.

After doing so many live shows with Robbie aboard, we bet their energy is low! Time to reboot…

On Robbie's leaving, Gary Barlow says:

Let's just make sure it stays like that. We don't want this turning into another 15 year break.

With their latest tour completed and the boys having families and solo careers to get back to, Take That is preparing to go on a bit of a hiatus from the band. Sources tell us that unlike before, this is a mutual decision between all the guys in the band and is not hindered on Robbie Williams desire to go back to his solo career. An insider explains:

Take That Adele & GaGa! Gary Barlow Is "Sick" Of You Both!

He's not alone, but we sure as hell don't share his opinion. The more of these two lovely ladies the better, if you ask us!

Ya'll probably know Gary Barlow best as one of the fellas from Take That, but now, he is also one of the judges on the U.K. version of The X Factor. Considering that the show debuted to 12.6 million audience, we'd say the show is off to a good start, but Gary is hoping to make a change to the songs contestants can select this season. He's looking for a ban of all Adele and Lady GaGa songs from the show's catalogue.

Hear those crickets chirping, Gary? That's the world collectively thinking to themselves, "WTF?!"

As two of the biggest names in the business right now, you would think that Gary would have an appreciation for their music. Sadly, it seems he's grown tired of them and their music and even said so to one of their faces! (Charming.) In a new interview, Gary explained:

ZOMG!

It's the Backstreet Boys! No, it's N*Sync!

But we sure know who their inspirations are…

X Factor saw their best audition yet with this performance.

These guys can sing, rap, AND they look the part (which is hot)!

Their aspiration is to become as successful as other British boy band, Take That.

We can definitely see that happening if they keep this up! Work it, boyz!
