One direction!

Thank you.

How amazing
was one direction?

Come on, gentlemen.

Come on down.

Did America
love one direction?

There
we go, gentlemen.

Awesome performance.

Now, gentlemen, we all know that
Mr. Simon Cowell is basically

responsible for bringing you
guys together when you were a

fourth contestant on the
x factor in the u.K.

But I heard you were thinking
about having a sixth member.

We met drew brees.

He's a footballer.

Not so much of a singer.

I heard a
different story.

Here's a tape.

Hey, guys.

It's drew.

I just turned on
"The X Factor."

There you were singing
our new single.

Without me.

You must of realized I wasn't
there, though, because you could

tell there was something
special missing, right?

Let's have your people
talk to my people.

I'll see you for the
next performance.

Good morning, Alaska.

Right?

That's what was on the
list you gave me.

What was it
like working withdrew?

...Working with drew?

It was cool.

Was he
trying to join?

What were his skills like?

He can throw a
football for sure.

How hot
is one direction?

We're going to see you and
drew together very shortly.

Still to come tonight,
we're going to find out who you

put through to the top and we're
going to reveal where each act came in.

You're going to know which act came
in first, second, third, and so on.

Welcome back to
"The X Factor," everyone.

A quick shout out.

With us in the audience
is "Glee's" Lea Michele.

Looking beautiful as always.

Last night finalists came to
the stage all hoping you would

vote them through
to the next round.

Yes, and there's a
whole lot of drama on stage and

at the judges' desk, and this guy
is starting some drama now, too.

Take a look at what happened.

♪ American boy ♪

♪ take me on a trip ♪

♪ I'd like to go some day ♪

♪ take me to New York ♪

♪ I'd love to see L.A. ♪

I am just
so proud of you.

You're a different person than
you were the first time I met you.

You look
like a star up there.

This week is when I
went home last year.

I don't want to feel the pain I did
when I got eliminated last year.

You rocked it, you rocked it.

♪ Take my breath away ♪

You don't want to turn
this into a karaoke competition.

You've got to make records.

Obviously, everybody in
the audience disagrees with you.

It felt good to me.

Hopefully, America agrees.

Now is the time you
have to establish what type of

artist, what type of records
you're going to make.

I think
you're just jealous.

♪ When a man loves a woman ♪

♪ down deep in his soul ♪

This song really shows how
unique and special your voice is.

I think you're an
incredible vocalist, but I'm not

sure I see you as a pop star.

Demi's comment, I'd like
to prove her wrong on that.

You're very different.

You're an original.

♪ California girls ♪

I guys were actually
perfect, and I don't like that.

We did good.

We did good.

Let's not let it
go to our heads.

We have to work.

I'm really proud of you.

I love you.

In the... ♪ cause I don't
think that they understand ♪

The way you pour your
soul into your songs at such a

young age, it blows my mind.

Normally I have my mom
Hillary here with me.

My other mom was
here to see me.

♪ Put another dime
in the jukebox, baby ♪

I don't like what Demi
has done to the way you look.

I like my new look.

I hate what
she's done to you now.

I think she's taken away
everything we liked about her.

You absolutely
did what you always did.

You come out and
you kicked ass.

♪ I want it ♪

♪ want it ♪

You're a
slice of America.

It actually feels like you've
arrived back in this competition.

I left it all out there for
America to say yes or no.

For them to be here and experience what
I get to do now, it's a great thing.

♪ Supercalifragilistic-
expialidocious ♪

First of all, I hated
it, but I think I'm going crazy

because it was really good.

We don't want to lose.

It's about
being creative.

It's about being inventive.

That was amazing.

I think we got people's
attention this time around.

♪ Don't make me
close one more door ♪

I feel like you
definitely channeled Whitney.

I'm glad you're
back in this competition.

I'm so proud of that.

I would have spent my whole
life sitting on my bed saying I

wish I was there.

I need to redeem myself.

I need to get out there.

♪ The eye of the tiger ♪

You are being taken into a
direction you shouldn't be going into.

I thought it was awesome,
really fierce and strong.

♪ If I lose you baby ♪

You're incredible.

I have a feeling with you
we're watching a star in the making.

I'm so happy.

That's exactly what I've
been wanting to hear.

Carly
rose is perfect.

To have that strong of a void... voice
at that young a age is amazing.

You look like a singer
in an Italian restaurant.

That's my true style.

If they don't like it, then I'm
afraid they don't like me.

When I was performing, I
thought it was wonderful.

The judges said things.

I was like what?

♪ I have found you ♪

The performance
was fantastic.

I could not be more
proud of you girls.

I feel like we
redeemed ourselves.

You all were good.

You need to work
on... ♪ uh-huh.

It was a wild night.

That's for sure.

So let's see what you
at home thought.

Yes.

Okay, so this is it.

Who did you vote for?

We're about to find out.

Please welcome Britney
Spears and the teens.

Thank you.

Wow!

Remember, the new album "take me home"
drops this Monday, so pick it up.

Yes.

Thank you very much, guys.

Be sure to get that.

After the break, more acts
go through to the top .

But two will have to
sing for survival.

And one act will
be heading home.

Stay with us.

Welcome back
to "The X Factor."

Six acts are already
through to the top .

Now we're going to reveal another
five acts who are going

to go straight through to
next week's show thanks to

everybody's votes from home.

Now, that's going to
leave us with two acts who will

have to sing for survival.

First, let's find out who else
you voted in to the top .

Now, please remember, these results
are in no particular order.

Safe and through to the top

is... carly rose sonenclar.

Also straight through
to the top is... Tate Stevens.

Congratulations.

The next act through to
the top is... Beatrice Miller.

Congratulations, Britney.

All four of your acts are
through to the next week.

Here are
the next results.

Also through to the top
is... lyric .

See you next week.

Okay.

That is going to leave us with Cece
frey, fifth harmony and Jason Brock.

One is safe and one will go straight
into the top thanks to your votes.

The other two who got the lowest
number of votes from you at home

must sing for survival.

Then the judges are going to decide
which act is leaving the competition.

So good luck to you all.

Good luck.

Now, the next act through
to the top is... fifth harmony.

Well done, Simon.

All your acts are through
to the next act.

Congratulations.

So the bottom
two... congratulations.

The bottom two, Cece
frey and Jason Brock.

Come
join us over here.

Now, the bottom two now have to
sing for survival, so please go

off and get yourselves ready.

Good luck, guys.

Thank you, Cece.

Here's the deal.

One song each.

And then the judges right down
here will decide which act stays

and which act is heading home.

Okay.

So, Demi, when you get to your
seat, my dear, what has Cece got

to do to really make a
showstopping performance and

make it through to next week?

I think Cece's voice
is going to say it all.

I feel like she is
such a strong singer.

Okay.

We're set.

Go ahead and introduce her
whenever you're ready, Demi.

Everyone, please welcome
the amazing and talented

and very beautiful Cece frey.

Right after the break,
Jason Brock sings for survival.

It is make or break when
we come back.

Welcome back
to "The X Factor."

We heard Cece frey sing for
survival before the break.

Now it's
Jason Brock's turn.

So, please, L.A. Reid,
introduce your act.

To the stage,

Great job, Jason.

Let's get Cece
frey back on the stage.

Come join us, Cece.

The acts have
done all they can.

Now their futures are in
the hands of the judges.

I'm going to ask each of the judges
in turn who they want to send home.

If we get a tie, we go to
deadlock and the votes which got

the lowest number of votes
from you at home will go home.

Demi, what is the name of the
act you are sending home?

The act that I'm sending
home tonight is Jason Brock.

Okay.

Moving right along, L.A. Reid,
what is the name of the act that

you are sending home?

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I'm going to have
to send Cece home.

Okay.

So that's one strike for Cece
and one strike for Jason.

Britney, your turn.

Please give me the name of the
act who you are sending home.

The act I'm
sending home tonight is Cece.

Okay.

So, Cece, if you get one more strike,
you will be leaving the competition.

Simon,
it's very important.

Please give me the act
that you are sending home.

The name of the act
I'm sending home is Jason.

All right.

We're going to deadlock.

Wow.

So now we look back
at how you at home voted.

The act who got the lowest number of votes
will now be leaving the competition.

Good luck to both of you.

This truly is up to America.

Good luck.

The act with the
lowest number of votes and who

is going home tonight
is... Jason Brock.

Congratulations, Cece.

Next week you're in the top .

Great job, sweetie.

Go ahead and join the
rest of your contestants.

Jason,
how do you feel right now?

I want to say I did it
for the gays and Japan.

But I'm really happy
to have been here.

Hug it
out, hug it out.

L.A., what would
you like to say to Jason?

I'm still
proud of him.

He was very entertaining.

I really loved
working with you.

It really makes me
sad to see you go.

It was an honor
working with you.

It was a privilege
and an honor.

Keep doing it.

I will.

Jason, everyone
will be sad to see you go.

Here's a look back at your
time on "The X Factor."

My name is Jason Brock.

If I was going to do a stage
show, dancers will descend, two

on each side of me, with
a big glitter expl*si*n.

Every songwriter wants a
guy like you to sing their song.

Thank you.

Jason Brock.

I'm , and this might be
my last chance to make it big.

I think he gave it
everything and that showed.

You're with me.

You know
that I love you.

Staying in the
competition, Jason Brock.

You've
turned me into a fan.

Everyone, give
it up for Jason Brock.

Great job, Jason.

Definitely going to
keep singing, I hope.

And I know I have a home in
San Francisco, but I'll be

pursuing whatever I
find after this.

Maybe a TV show.

Good for you.

Ladies and gentlemen,
once again, Jason Brock.

Thank you.

Listen, we
have our top acts.

But it's not over yet.

Which of them got the
most votes last night?

This is crucial for the
acts and their mentors.

For the very first time, in any
singing competition show, we are

going to reveal the order in which
your votes voted for the acts.

That's right.

We're revealing who won this
week's votes right after the break.

Welcome back
to "The X Factor."

Before the break, we
revealed which act was out.

Tonight for the very first time
we will reveal how America voted

and how everybody's fans,
including who is number one this

week based on your
votes at home.

Obviously, Cece
frey is at the bottom of the

leaderboard this week,
but how did the rest do?

Here we go.

This is how the rankings
stand after your votes were counted.

Based on your votes, in
th place is... arin ray.

Again, based on your votes,
in th place is... Beatrice Miller!

In ninth
place... lyric .

Now, remember, these
results are based on how you at

home voted, okay?

In eighth place, it's.
Paige Thomas.

Demi, how do you
feel about this?

How do you think the order's
playing out for you?

Like what you thought?

I expected Paige to do
a little bit better because I

think she did so amazing.

I think she's a beautiful girl.

But I think it's going out a
little as planned other than that.

Okay.

But you've got to
encourage people to vote from home.

It's so important.

Yes.

Okay.

So coming in seventh
is... jennel Garcia.

Sixth place
goes to... emblem.

Simon, you have a look of
surprise on your face.

Are you... are you a little shocked pie
the placing of one of your groups?

Yeah.

Where did you think
they were going to come in?

Where did you think they were going
to come in on the leaderboard?

Number one.

Okay.

Anything you want to say to the
public, Simon, before we continue?

Anything you'd like
to say to the public?

No.

I think it's for me.

Now I've got this information.

We've got to change perhaps style a little
bit, but this has been very helpful.

Okay.

Okay.

Now we come to the top five.

So in fifth place...
we have fifth harmony.

In fourth place
is... diamond white.

Okay.

Now we're down
to the top three.

Third place goes
to... vino Alan.

All right.

So we've got carly rose sonenclar
and Tate Stevens as our top two.

Come join us here, guys.

Now, like I mentioned earlier,
we've never done this before,

any singing competition has
ever done this before.

L.A., how are you
feeling right now?

I feel great about the fact
that I have two of the top three.

That's pretty amazing.

And I love both of them.

Think they both are winners and they
both could take home this competition.

Feels great.

Britney, how do you feel
about carly rose being up here?

I'm really excited.

I have two in the top four.

- Carly rose has always amazed me, so...
- All right.

So who got the most votes
from America last night?

In first place, you vod d for.
Actually, we're going to do

second place first.

Let's do second place first.

In second place, you vote the
for... carly rose sonenclar.

So Tate steens is our number one
vote-getter and has the most

votes from America.

How do you feel, Tate?

Wow!

Obviously, people in America
don't get out a lot.

Thank you so very much.

This is huge, not only for me, my
family, but I think this show.

This is pretty big.

Congratulations.

Congratulations
to both of you.

These acts will be
back again next week.

But if you think the pressure is
tough this week, t heat will

be even more tense.

We're back next week
at :, : central.

Right now stay tuned to "glee."

From everyone here at "The X Factor"
and your top , good night, everyone.

Good night everybody.
