Just watch it for context. Fuck "Natalia Kills," but fuck "Joe Irvine" in equal amounts. This is a case of cunts being cunty to a cunt who deserved it.

It's entirely scripted and staged, the bloke wouldn't have even had a say in how he was dressed which conveniently fed into the very obviously pre-planned rant.
Show gets publicity, he gets sympathy votes, apology after "the public has spoken", and everything carries on as normal.
Anyone worried about the integrity of their career isn't appearing on X-Factor in the first place, they are going where the easy money is and where Cowell is concerned that means doing your bit no matter what.
This is X-Factor New Zealand, I don't think it Simon Cowell has an ounce of his being caring about this version.
I think you're overestimating how much these shows care about the contestants.
It's about the judges getting what little exposure/paycheck they can, and ratings for the show. But they don't give a shit about the individual contestants. None of the judges, especially those judges with burgeoning singing careers of their own, are going to risk setting their own careers on fire just to be a psycho bad guy for a script to uplift a contestant.

Hahaha perfect.
But yeah this is a despicable way to act. It's childish and petty. "I'm sick to look at you" come the fuck on and get off your high horse.
The days of thread titles like "look at these two cunts be assholes" is long over.
it never existed I was just kidding

The fact that my namesake emerged from this show with her integrity intact is a miracle. Leona her steely constitution and flawless disposition

Who said anything about caring about the contestants? They don't, but they are intrinsic to how the show works.
X-Factor ramps and de-ramps contestants as each week go by, they all have a life-expectancy and 3-arc stories. It's incredibly stage-managed to get the desired results for the best television and keep the commercially viable ones in till the end.
The judges are characters, the contestants are characters. The contestants just don't get to decide how they're portrayed or how long they last. That's all done with costume, song-choice, staging and the judge's comments. All of which is out of their hands and pre-planned.
A judge playing the villain is all part of it, they are well-aware of it, and no one has set their career on fire apart from in the eyes of those caught up in the faux-drama.
Is there a results show to come? If so it will all play into that as the story reaches the 'right' conclusion.

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
Wow Natalia Kills is a COMPLETE joke and her husband is an embarrassment. Vile. Good on the other judge for shutting them down and making them look like the fools they are.
Also, good on the contestant, he was clearly emotional and caught off guard, with tears in his eyes but kept it together and even managed to dish back kind comments in the face of this onslaught. May Natalia fade into obscurity (even further).

Hey I recognize this woman from some gifs here on GAF, lol. I hope that was staged, I refuse to believe humans can be this dumb.
I agree with you on the nature of how the show is staged. I just don't think it's completely scripted drama, though.
Like, I'm pretty sure Natalia and Willy are on the show with the intention of being the villains. But I also think that they're just vile enough, and completely lacking in self-awareness, for that moment to have been real. I doubt there was a cue card in front of Natalia on that table saying, "Criticize contestant #31 for looking like your husband."
Hah, their
If there's a results show still to come it will probably be painfully obvious how this story was planned to play out.
Even if it is staged its dumb enough to recite said script and come off looking like a cunt
None of us knew who she was but now we at least know she is an idiot

I SCREAMED when she used the phrase "artistic integrity". Girl, you're sittin' there lookin' like Edna Mode and have the nerve to release trash like this as a single:

It's X Factor. Everything about it is staged and rehearsed. I love that Simon tried to bring that dogshit to the US and failed miserably.
Great song. Give her promo!

Never heard of her but I've seen some GAF members with her as their avatar. I like her style...hella attractive.

absolute filth on the inside
Filth just over one episode of a show. Cute.
yes. it's enough
Maybe.
But only someone really desperate would agree to be a part of a scripted bit that makes them look like they are both clueless and heartless as well as deluded about their level of fame and importance. How many fans do either of them gain from this? How do they gain anything from this other than perhaps a little more money from the show and hopes to continue to be asked back?
You only agree to shit like this if you're certain you have no more of a career left in anything but cash in reality TV dramatics. (Or you're an idiot.)
I think you're making the common mistake of assuming that just because much of reality TV is produced and manipulated, therefor every word that's said is scripted. That's almost never the case. Most people aren't actors. They can't deliver a line that's been fed to them to save their life.
she might have gone a little overboard but i still think someone told her to be unnecessarily harsh and rude
i mean, between them they've turned xfactor new zealand from a non-entity into international pop culture gossip focus
of course this shit is staged
