02x16 - Live Results Show #1

[bunniefuu]

Announcer: Last week the performance was fantastic.
You're really special.

You look like a star up there. L.A.: I think
I'm going crazy because it was really good.

Announcer: The first
contestants left the competition.

And for the first time, the
voter rankings were revealed.

But tonight, who will win your votes as the
final take on the songs of the divas.

L.A. Reid and the over s. Demi
Lovato and the young adults.

Simon Cowell and the groups. And
Britney Spears and the teens.

It's time. Demi: My category is
pulling out all the stops and you'll see

some divas in action. Announcer: The music.
L.A.: This week the over s

will come out and slay the
competition.

Announcer: Live from Hollywood
...it's "The X Factor."

Please welcome your hosts, Mario
Lopez and Khloe Kardashian Odom.

[Cheers and applause] Mario: Hey, everyone.
Welcome to "The X Factor."

[Cheers and applause] Good evening.
I'm Mario Lopez.

Khloe: And I'm Khloe Kardashian Odom.
[Cheers and applause]

Tonight the top take the stage hoping they
will blow your minds so much you're going to

vote for them. But the pressure is
really on this week because not one, but

two acts are leaving the competition.
Mario: That's right.

And last week for the very first time we revealed
the ranking of the top acts based on how you

voted. Now, there's the leader
board right there, okay?

And as you can see, right at the top,
it's Tate Stevens at number one.

And if you look at the bottom, it's Cece frey.
So, obviously, she's hoping to

do better this week. But tonight
we wipe the slate clean.

All the acts get a fresh start. Now,
the theme for this week is divas.

And divas don't come any bigger than these four.
Please welcome The X Factor

judges.

[Cheers and applause]

L.A. Reid. Khloe: Demi Lovato.
Mario: Simon Cowell.

Khloe: And Britney Spears. Mario: Okay.
Now, as I said earlier, the

theme for this week is divas. Khloe: Yes,
and I know all about divas because I grew up

with a few of them. Mario: I bet you did.
But you all are nice people.

Anyway, all the songs tonight were made famous
by some of the biggest musical divas on the

planet, singers like Celine Dion,
Mariah Carey and Donna summer.

These ladies definitely know a little something about that.
Khloe: Just a little bit.

So, Mr. L.A. Reid, you have the least amount of
people in the competition, but yet you had the

strongest people in the leader board.
How do you feel tonight?

L.A.: That seems appropriate. I'm that good.
Khloe: You're confident about

it? Okay. And, miss
Britney Spears,

tonight it's all about divas. Do
you have any divas in your act?

Britney: You know, I feel really
confident for my group tonight.

They're amazing. They did
really great in rehearsal.

I'm really excited. Mario: My little
latina diva, Demi, how do you feel about the

rankings? Demi: I feel my
performers deserved to be a little bit

higher, but tonight I think we're going to achieve that.
Khloe: Finally, I'm going to

talk to one of the biggest divas of them all.
Mr. Simon Cowell.

None of your acts placed in the top four.
Are you surprised about that?

Simon: You know what? I call last week a blip.
I think based on what you're

going to see tonight, these groups are going
to go much higher in the leader board.

I've got a good feeling. Mario: Thank you, Mr. Cowell.
Now, America, we want your input

on the contestants' performances.
Are they diva not or diva not.

Tweet to the hashtag below. There is a
lot of pressure on everyone tonight.

At stake is a place in the top .
Let's start with one of the

young adults and they're
mentored by Demi Lovato. Demi.

Demi: There couldn't be a better
way to start off the divas night.

This is my incredibly talented and
very feisty, beautiful jennel.

This week is diva week and Demi really
wants me to go all out this performance.

Demi: This week is not about performing for yourself.
It's about performing on the

audience. I'm really focusing
on working the entire stage.

Dance is a part of my life. I've
been a dancer for about years.

My students are like my inspiration.
Are you nervous when you

perform on stage? Yeah, it's like when
you guys go to competition, but it's like

in front of Britney Spears. I want to show them
no matter how small a place you come from,

you can always follow your dreams.
I love you guys.

Khloe: Coming in seventh, jennel Garcia.
What we want this week is for

you to be on top. I want to talk to you
about maybe just bringing maybe more

of the jennel we saw in the beginning back.
Give it your all.

You're kind of like the rock star next door.
This is a diva-themed week.

I want everyone to see she can
potentially be one of those great divas.

This is your performance, and I need you to
completely own it. I am going to work super

hard, because being here means everything to me.
This means everything.

[cheers and applause] L.A.: Yeah, jennel.
Starting out with a bang.

You know what? You just
returned to the competition.

That smoked. [Cheers and applause]
Britney: Tina would be proud

that you nailed it. Simon: Jennel, you
know, I've been a bit critical of you over

the last couple of weeks, because
I loved your first audition.

Didn't like the way that it was going.
But I have to say...

[audience reacting] Haven't finished yet.
You are back in the game.

[Cheers and applause] That's what we wanted.
You looked better.

You sound better. You were having more fun.
Like a different person.

I'm glad you listened to me.
[Laughter] Demi: Jennel, I'm so

unbelievably proud of you. What
a way to kick off the night.

You do look amazing. And I think
together we really nailed it.

So, hopefully, people are going to show their
voting for you a lot higher than last week,

because you deserve it this week.
Thanks.

Khloe: Congratulations, jennel.
Thanks.

Khloe: Simon's right. There has
been tough criticism towards you.

Is there something you want to say?
No.

Khloe: Demi, are you proud? You're so proud.
Demi: I listened to Simon and

I think he knows what he's talking about.
Khloe: You did listen.

Everybody, if you want jennel to stay out of
danger tomorrow night, you have to vote, but not

until the end of the show. Mario: I'm going
to give you all the details on how to vote

later. Voting will be open, by the
way, two hours after the show, so

you've got no excuse. Make sure
your favorite goes through.

Khloe: After the break it's Tate Stevens.
He came in at number one last

week. Can he do it again? We'll
be right back for you to

find out.

[ Whistling ]

Mario: Welcome back to The X Factor.
The xtra factor app gives you

exclusive access to backstage cameras.
With verizon voting, you can use

the app to vote for your favorite
act on your smartphone or tablet.

Head over to thexfactorusa.Com to get the app.
Back to you, Khloe.

Khloe: And you can use the app to vote your favorite apps.
If you're a verizon subscriber,

you can vote by text. A couple of of clicks,
a little thumb action, you're done.

Up next, it's the first of the over s.
Here's L.A. Reid.

L.A.: This is my guy performing a song
by the diva Shania twain, Tate Stevens.

Mario: Tate Stevens is our number one vote getter.
I have my family here so when

I come off stage, I can kiss them and hug them.
It feels awesome.

Did you forget my face? No.
I met your whole family.

They're so sweet. I love them.
I remember when we met, we

were in high school. She was a senior.
I was a junior.

People say, oh, you're too young.
You don't know what love is.

When you are meant to be, you know,
I met my life when I was .

As weird as that sounds, I knew it was
something different than just puppy love.

It could be a little storybook-ish,
but it's been that way years.

I'm doing Shania twain, "from this
moment." That's such a romantic song.

She's going to love it. She was
able to witness you rank number one.

How was that? It's big for my
family, but last week's last week.

I have zero right now. I have to
get to number one. Here we go.

Challenge this week, honestly, is sell it.
One thing is missing, your

wife. You're not singing to your wife.
I need it to be very specific to

her. Being able to bring
the emotion to the song means

everything. It's tough, but
that's what makes it worth it.

Announcer: Tate Stevens.

[cheers and applause] Britney:
Your performance was so heart-felt.

I loved it. And your vocals were amazing.
Thank you.

Demi: Um, oh, you are so good.
L.A.: Just stop there.

It was so good. Demi: You were very good.
You were very good.

Thank you. Simon: Tate, Tate,
this is going to be really, really

annoying for me to say, because
Mr. smug on my right is suddenly happy.

Tate, that was better than last week.
Thank you.

Simon: And I tell you why, I think.
I think the direction you were

given was really good. I think you've got
confidence now, knowing that you're number

one. And you know what? When
we designed this show, we

designed this show with no operation.
Regardless of your age, if

you've got a dream and a talent, this
show is going to give you another chance.

I'm going to tell you, the winner of
this show is going to get $ million.

I would be happy to write you that check.
[Cheers and applause]

L.A.: Those are big words. Those are big words.
By the way, he can write that

check, so I like that. Khloe: Tate, I
know you did an incredible job and your wife

was backstage. Were you
singing that to your wife?

Most definitely. Khloe: Is there
anything you want to say to her?

I love you. Mario: Listen up,
everyone, if you like what you're hearing

on the show tonight, you can
download all of the performances.

Just head on over to thexfactorusa.Com.
Khloe: You can let it out.

Let it out. Let it out. I
see you holding it back.

After the break, a singer who finished
fourth in the rankings last week.

It's diamond white.

Mario: Welcome back to "the x
factor." The theme this week is divas,

and I'm in the middle of a few
divas from our audience right now.

We're celebrating some of the biggest singers
ever to have picked up a microphone.

And, of course, each week the pressure
on the acts gets even more intense.

So let's go backstage right now and check
out how their nerves are holding up.

Khloe? Khloe: Thanks, Mario.
I think the pressure's getting

to everybody. It's a little
more somber back here.

Arin, the judges have been pretty positive tonight.
Does that put more pressure on

you? Not really. You
just try to go by the

performances and worry about yourself because
they can get some other great stuff, but

maybe not you. It's really intense.
Khloe: Does staying back here

and watching the shows, does that
help you or make you more nervous?

It kind of makes you more nervous.
Everyone so far has m*rder*d it.

Tate and jennel. I think the
next person will k*ll it.

Khloe: Good luck tonight, arin.
I know you'll do great.

Let's go back to the stage. It's the
first performer from the teens.

Here's their mentor, Britney Spears.
Britney?

Britney: The Mike was made for her
because she is definitely a diva.

Here's diamond white. Mario:
In fourth place is diamond white.

Coming back and getting fourth place in
the rankings, that made me feel awesome.

I'm so happy! I gave up everything
to let her go after her dreams.

Coming back and being in the top four, that's amazing.
Just to see you smile again, oh,

my God. I just want to say
thank you for bringing me back.

Honestly, when I got eliminated, my whole spirit,
I was so hurt. Now that I'm back, it makes me

appreciate it and want it more.
Britney: You don't have to thank me.

You're meant to be here, sweetie.
I chose "halo" by Beyonce for

diamond. The chorus is so strong.
There's a potential for you to

go off-key. I'm going to work
extra hard and perfect my song.

Britney: We definitely made the
right decision bringing her back.

The pressure is on because this
could all be taken away like that.

Announcer: Diamond white.

[cheers and applause]

L.A.: Hello, diamond. Hi.
L.A.: You know, you picked...

you picked a really tough song.
Those are really big shoes to fill.

And you filled them. [Cheers and applause]
I was concerned, though, because

I'm not going to lie. You started out shaky.
You really did.

By the time you got about / of the way
through the song, you started to kick in.

So good job. Thank you.
Demi: This week is kind of

perfect for you, because you are a
total diva in the best way possible.

You really give the rest of the
competition a run for their money.

Thank you so much! Simon: Diamond, actually,
you look so much better than you did

last week. Thank you.
Simon: My advice is don't

walk and sing at the same time,
because that did bother you. Okay.

Simon: I think the second half of the
track was much better than the first half.

You know what's interesting when I look at you
and when I hear you, diamond, and I really do

believe this. I think we're
looking at a future star.

I really do. [Cheers and
applause] Thank you.

Simon: I think you're someone who just
has to practice, practice, practice.

I'm so happy you've come back in this show.
Thank you.

[Cheers and applause] Britney:
I am so incredibly proud of you.

You just keep getting better and it amazes
me every time. I'm so proud of you.

Thank you very much. Mario: Well, obviously,
since it's diva week, what would you

say is the biggest diva thing about you?
The biggest diva thing about

me is when I get on stage, I like
to switch to my middle name.

Mario: You have an alter ego. Khloe: Up
next, the youngest singer in the competition.

Tonight she tackles a massive cyndi lauper hit.
When we come back, it's Beatrice

Miller.

Khloe: Welcome back to "the x
factor." Mario: Now, here's a quick

reminder of just what the acts are fighting for.
The X Factor prize is going to

truly change someone's life forever, whoever wins.
Not only will the winner walk

away with a $ million recording contract, but,
like so many global pop stars, including one

direction and our very own Britney Spears,
the winner will also become the next Pepsi

artist. Khloe: And
it gets even better.

Pepsi will help launch the winner's career
by producing their first music video and the

video will get an exclusive debut during
music's biggest night, the grammys.

How amazing is that? Mario:
Back to the battle for your votes.

Tonight we're celebrating some of music's greatest divas.
Up next is one of the teens, so

let's go to Britney Spears. Britney: She's
had a really tough week this week, but I'm

sure she's going to bring it. This is
Beatrice Miller. Mario: The next act

through... Beatrice Miller.
Well done.

I was feeling really happy, really proud of myself.
Then they had to make me sad by

telling me I was th out of th.
Mario: In th place is

Beatrice Miller. I'm going to work
hard, but I just don't know if it will be

enough. Britney: I'm really
excited about this week.

It's diva week. And I chose this song,
cyndi lauper's "time after time."

I know you're going through struggles at home.
It's just a lot of pressure

for a -year-old to have to deal with
knowing if I go home, my family's lost hope.

It's really difficult. Neither
of my moms have a job right now.

It makes my house really stressful.
It's just not a good environment

to be in. Britney: I don't think
you should ever completely lose all

hope. This is a whole new week.
Just try to have a different

outlook on things. But I understand what
you're going through, and I'm here for

you. Thank you. I need
to perform the best I can

in the competition so that I can get my family
out of the situation that we've been stuck

in for a really long time. Don't
worry about me and your mom, okay?

All those problems out of your head.
Just sing the way you know you

can.
Okay, sweetie?

L.A.: Beatrice, first of all,
you are so cute. Oh, my God.

How is it possible that someone can
have that kind of voice? I don't get it.

I really don't get it. Thank you.
L.A.: That's the good news.

The bad news is I don't think that was the
greatest song choice, because it didn't allow

you to peak. You didn't get a chance to
peak and show your chops as well as I

know you can. You did really good.
It's the song's fault, not

yours. Okay. Demi:
You are so freaking

adorable. It's ridiculous. I
...I liked the song choice,

because I think it really showcased a
different side of you that we haven't seen.

Your voice... I didn't know that you could
sound so soulful and your tone is incredible.

Thank you. Demi: You did amazing.
Thank you so much.

Simon: I think it was better than last week.
You see, I disagree with L.A.

I think when you push your vocals,
that's when you don't sound good.

I like you in the lower register.
Having said that, I thought the

song was boring. It just went
on and on and on and on and on.

But, so, you know, it's song choice, you know.
For some reason, Britney isn't

quite getting the right songs for you.
Britney: Simon, she has more

talent in her pinkie than you did in
all of your contestants together.

I think your performance was incredibly special.
It was beautiful.

And your tone, you have such a
soulful tone for such a young age.

It was amazing. Mario:
Britney's getting defensive.

All right. Good job, Beatrice.
Hey, listen, if you want

Beatrice to definitely make it through
to next week, you have to support her.

So vote. But don't do anything
until the end of the show.

Khloe: Okay. Here's the next act.
It's the first of the groups.

Let's go over to Simon Cowell. Simon: Okay.
I just want to say before I

introduce the act, we changed
this song at midnight last night.

So they've had a few hours... it's not going to be bad.
It's going to be brilliant.

L.A.: Is that a disclaimer? Simon: It's just a fact.
I just want people to know

they've worked very, very hard. The song
is a Katy Perry song and a queen song.

It's lyric . Now that we're here,
that we're this close to changing our

lives, our family life
forever... come here.

We made it to week three. The more work
we put in, continue to impress people, do

better than we did last week. I loved it.
Are you from the east coast?

Yes. Is your family
still there in New York?

Yes. Were they affected at all?
Yeah.

When we heard about superstorm Sandy, knowing
that our family, friends, and our old schools are

going through something difficult,
we would want to be there.

Our family is definitely the
most important thing in our life.

Hello, mother. How are you?
We don't have cable.

We don't have Internet, you know.
Just hanging in there, you know.

All right. Love you.
We love you guys.

We want to be there and help them in this situation.
Not only our friends and family,

but the community. The whole east coast.
Knowing that a lot of things

were lost, some people lost their
houses and some people lost lives.

Feel that pain. It's like, wow, we've
got to go an extra step because we've got

to do it for them. So this week's
performance is definitely going to be

everything. We're coming back with a prize.
We're coming back with a win.

Our hearts are on the east coast,
but our minds are focused here.

L.A.: Okay. I'm confused.
I'm confused.

Who was the diva? Was it queen?
It was mostly a queen song.

Simon: Freddie Mercury was a diva.
L.A.: I'm not going to argue

that. I am concerned.
I am concerned.

That was good. And it was better than
last week, which I thought was a

disaster, honestly, right? But, but, I don't
know, I just think you guys lost your way.

This could be the last time we see you.
Britney: Simon, I feel like

they're a hip hop group and they should be doing
hip hop tracks. Demi: I... I feel like

Freddie Mercury is a diva on his own.
I don't know why we had to add a

song that didn't make much sense.
I don't feel like "et" fit at

all. Thank you.
We love you, too.

Demi: I don't get it. Simon: Well, I did get it.
And I think people at home will

get it. And I've got to tell you, I
said what I said beforehand because

you had literally hours to put this together.
And the one thing about you

guys, you never complain. You just get on with it.
You bring an energy this show

needs. And I hope people pick up
the phone and keep you in the

competition. Mario: You
had this place rocking.

Up next, it is arin ray. He was in th place
last week, so the pressure is definitely on

tonight as he takes on a Madonna hit.
We'll be right back.

Stay with us.

♪

Khloe: Welcome back, everybody, to "the
x factor." Tomorrow night we'll find out

who you put through to next week.
Mario: Listen up, everyone.

Performing live on the show tomorrow,
multiaward-winning superstar Taylor swift.

[Cheers and applause] Taylor is going to
be here performing her brand-new single

and, of course, we're going to get those
crucial results from tonight's vote.

Who's going home? You're going to have
to find out tomorrow night at :, :

central. Khloe: Tomorrow's
going to be kind of depressing.

Two are going home. Mario: Yes, I know.
It's important you vote.

Khloe: Yes. So let's see if the next
singer will have you grabbing for your

phones. It's one of the teens.
Here's their mentor, Britney

Spears. Britney: This guy has
done so great in rehearsals.

I'm sure he's going to have a
performance that will melt your heart.

Khloe: In th place is arin ray.
Last week I was ranked th.

Being ranked th sucks. That
means there's something missing.

This is definitely a big week for me.
Britney: Last week you were

low on the rankings, but it's a new week.
I chose "crazy for you" by

Madonna. Your voice will be really,
really cool and smooth on that.

When Britney told me I'd be singing
"crazy for you" I was really excited.

I have friends I can possibly be singing
that to, so it will be really cool.

Britney: You'll be really good.
My future sister-in-law.

We're just friends right now. I think
it's really cool to have somebody like her.

She's very, very special to me. Just really hope
that I can make it through this week so I don't

have to go home. Going home sucks.
I'll miss you.

You would? I'll miss you, too.
This week I don't have anybody

on stage with me. It's just me and my
voice and you know I'm going to work

million times harder than I did last week because
you're only as good as your last performance.

L.A.: Arin, I'm struggling with that.
I'm really struggling with that.

You know, I dig you. I think you're amazing.
But for whatever reason, I want

goose bumps. You're now in the
heart of the competition.

This is a $ million prize, and I
didn't get a $ million performance.

Thank you. Demi: I agree with L.A.
I feel like I was, honestly,

really bored watching it. And I... I feel like
you have a tendency to not go the soulful

route, which is what, you know
...what you should be doing.

I didn't get the song choice. But I think
you also lack soul at the same time.

Thank you. Simon: Arin,
can I be honest with you?

It looked like you hated it as well.
You just didn't seem into it.

I know that we had that false intro.
But, you know, you taking on

that song is like asking a
cat to eat a tiger. What?

Simon: In other words, it's just not right for you.
And the wrong kind of song, and

it did sound a bit boring. And I think
you could be in trouble tonight.

Thank you. Britney: I
have to disagree with everyone.

I felt that the song is one of my favorite
Madonna songs and I feel like you nailed it.

Thank you. Mario: We had a little
bit of a technical difficulty before

arin's song, but I handled it like a pro.
Thank you.

Khloe: I think I know someone who
has goose bumps from watching you.

Mario: Nice looking couple with you and normani.
If you want arin to be back next

week, you have to vote for him. Up next, a young
singer from Phoenix, Arizona, sing a Donna

summer megahit.
It's Paige Thomas coming up.

Mario: Welcome back to "The X Factor."
Khloe: The next act is one of

the young adults. Here's
their mentor, Demi Lovato.

Demi. Demi: This next
performer is a total diva.

I think that she's going to rock it
tonight and I'm really proud of her.

Give it up for Paige. Simon: You don't
want to turn this into a karaoke competition.

I've been to enough karaoke bars.
There has never been anyone that

has sung the way you just did. Maybe we
just need people to connect with you.

I think the perfect song for you would be "last
dance." I would love to see you having a

great time and at the same time pull something
out of your personal experiences that you've

been through and put it into your performance.
One of my most fondest

memories as a kid was my mom. I remember being
young and singing with her in the kitchen.

My mother is the reason why I wanted to
be a performer. She was a singer, too.

This means a lot to me. I get to live
out our dreams for the both of us.

I'm excited to do this song because everything
about this song screams out my mom.

The only thing I can hope for now is
that people will see that's sincere.

When I was , my mom passed away on
Christmas Eve in a car accident.

♪ In the arms of the angel all my
memories of her are happy memories.

When I'm on stage, I feel like I have my mother.
She's not with me, but I feel

like she's with me on stage.

L.A.: Hello, Paige. You get a pass.
That was your best yet.

Thank you. Britney: It was
like a disco ball exploded on stage.

It was like the best disco throwback ever.
It was really good.

Thank you, Britney. Simon: I'm with L.A.
I think that was probably your

best performance so far. Having
said that... thank you.

Simon: And, again, I have to blame your mentor here.
I think the choreography for the

ncers and what was going on behind you,
very distracting. You didn't need that.

You needed to be in the spotlight.
I loved my dancers, Simon.

Demi: Actually, I wanted something
totally different on stage.

Simon: Oh, really, really. Demi: But
with your performance, you took my mind

off all of that and you nailed it and I'm so proud of you.
So, hopefully, when America

votes for you tonight, they'll be able to see
within the next week that you will see the fun

side of Paige. Mario: Great job.
Love those lips, by the way.

If you want to see Paige safe and through
to next week, you have to vote tonight.

Khloe: Here's the next act.
It's one of the groups. Simon?

Simon: Um, my next group... if it's
diva week, you've got to do Mariah, right?

So it's fifth harmony singing "hero."
After our performance last

week... I thought we were going home.
The fact that we got top five

was like whoa. We just want
to kiss and hug everybody.

The last couple of weeks we've blended so well together.
We have so much chemistry.

Off the stage we do everything together.
And I feel like we've become

like sisters. We're like the same
person in five different bodies.

Okay, hit it. I'm the oldest of three kids.
I'm the big sister.

I'm used to getting people in check.
I'm used to dance

competitions and pageants. I
definitely know when to turn it on.

I come from a family who loves to laugh and enjoy life.
I think they rubbed off on me.

I'm the oldest. I try to be the role model.
I don't know why I'm goofy.

I just am. If somebody had come up
to you and told you you'll be with

four other girls you never met, meet one direction
and be mentored by Demi Lovato, I would

have thought they were crazy. It's amazing
the feeling I get whenever I sing with these

girls. I feel like I have
my sisters by my side.

They won't let me down and I won't let them down.

[cheers and applause] L.A.: There's something...
there's something really lovable

about all of you. Lovable. You
picked a really tough song.

And I think you struggled in the beginning, honestly.
But somewhere in there it turned

into a really great performance, and
I'm happy for you. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.
Britney: I was extremely

impressed, you guys. I think Simon
is doing amazing with you guys.

Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you.

Demi: You guys did an incredible job on the song.
I was really worried I was going

to be bored, but you guys... your
vocals just k*lled it. Really great.

[Cheers and applause] Simon: Girls, you know what?
Maybe this isn't a one-horse

race. Maybe there's a chance that
five girls with brilliant voices

could actually win this show. And I want
America to pick up the phone and vote for you,

because I think that you are absolutely brilliant.
You're great fun to work with,

great vocals, work hard, and you
all love puppies. Yes, we do.

Mario: Great job, girls. Super
divas on the stage right now.

After the break, -year-old carly rose sonenclar
performs a song from one of the biggest

movies of all time. We'll be right back.
Stay with us.

Mario: Welcome back to "the x
factor." The theme this week is divas.

Khloe: Yes, and let's go to our
very own diva, Britney Spears.

Britney: This little girl is a powerhouse,
and you girls are going to be so amazed.

Last week after you performed you were
a little emotional. What was that about?

It was a lot of things. Like my dad just
came here and for the first time in a long

time I've seen him and my mom. And
they're just like here together.

Is it really... it just kind of all came out.
My dad's supportive of

everything I do. I'm lucky that he is.
He recorded a lot of me singing.

I was singing for my dad. Now I'm
singing in front of America.

I'm so proud of you and I've always told you this.
Not because of the results of

anything you've ever done, but because of the
work you put into it and the effort you put into

it. That's what makes
me the proudest.

I'll always be there. This is diva week.
You are a little diva.

Thank you. And that's why I've
chosen Celine Dion's "my heart will go"

on." It's exciting. "Titanic"
is my favorite movie.

I feel like it's such a powerful song for her.
She will be as good as miss

Celine Dion herself. I think it will be a k*ller.

L.A.: Hi, carly. Britney,
it pains me to say this.

It really does. I don't want to say this,
but we could be looking at the winner.

Thank you. L.A.: Really good.
Thank you so much.

Demi: Oh, you're so good! Honestly,
it just doesn't make sense.

Like I don't believe that that's your voice.
I feel like Celine Dion is here,

and she's hiding. Thank you.
Simon: How old are you?

You're years old. I am.
Simon: Then I don't believe

you're a human being. I actually don't.
Because you can't do that at .

Your control on that song, and I thought I was
going to hate it, and that note at the end, was

absolutely incredible. Thank you.
Simon: I mean, incredible.

[Cheers and applause] Britney:
Carly, I'm so proud of you.

I have chills all over my body. You're
spectacular, sweetie. You're very good.

Khloe: You did a fantastic job.
I know your parents are

backstage. Do you want
to say anything to them?

Thank you for getting me h e here.
And I love you.

Mario: After the break, the singer you
voted into third place last week, from

waynesville, Missouri, it's vino
Alan.

Mario: Welcome back to "the x
factor." Now, just a quick reminder, you

can download all of tonight's
performances from thexfactorusa.Com.

Khloe: I love diva night. Who's the bigger diva, you or I?
Mario: I can't compete with

you. Khloe: Okay, I win. Up
next is the final singer from

the over s. Let's go to L.A. Reid.
L.A.: Yeah, you know what?

I'm really proud of this guy. He's come so far.
I think in the beginning he was

an underdog in the competition, but he
came out in number three last week.

This week he's going to perform a
song from the diva Tina Turner.

This is vino and the song is "let's stay
together." Khloe: Third place goes to

vino Alan. To be ranked number
three last week feels great.

Three it is. Three it is. My
mom and my son flew thousands

of Miles from Missouri to be out here
while I was performing. It felt amazing.

You're the first priority. We
believe in you and now we're here.

Do it. L.A.: Vino's gone
through many, many struggles.

He toesn't want his son to go through those same struggles.
He really wants to deliver for

his son. I was married to
sky's mom for four years.

It showed me what stability and
that family unit could feel like.

When we divorced, it was very devastating
to me, but everything in my life I know I

draw from that when I sing. L.A.:
I want to remind you of one thing.

You were three, not one. In order for you
to properly sing the song, you're going to

sing through love, through pain.
Three is not one. I need one.

Vino has to come out this week and be
even stronger than he was last week.

[cheers and applause] Britney:
Your voice is so soulful.

It doesn't make sense that that voice
comes out of your body, but it works.

It really does. Thanks, Britney.
Demi: There's no doubt about

it that you have an incredible soulful voice.
I liked this performance better

than last week's. But at the same time, I
was... I was... I have to admit I was a

little bored. What?
Demi: You sounded amazing,

but I thought it was boring. Okay.
Simon: You know, vino, I was

actually happy to see you so high up in the
rankings last week, because I think you needed

confidence. What I would say is that
your voice is designed for what I

call a moment. You know, one of
those songs that you can just k*ll.

That song wasn't that song. It wasn't
as good as last week. It wasn't.

I promise you. I mean, I'm trying to
be... I'll take everything you say.

Simon: I'm trying to be constructive.
You need bigger kinds of songs.

In fact, I think the choose which you wanted
to choose yourself would have been better.

L.A.: He picked that with me. You know what?
Let's stay together.

Let's stay together. L.A.: Vino, despite
what the diva said, you put your soul

into that. You sang it so strong.
Right?

You have a classic sounding voice.
You have a classic voice.

One of the very best voices I've ever heard
on this stage. And that song was a great

platform for it. And I'm really,
really proud of you, my man.

Thanks. L.A.: Really proud.
Khloe: You had some mix going

on with the judges. You want
to say anything to America?

They're the ones who vote for you.
I appreciate you all's

support as far as like what is pop.
They said huey Lewis wasn't pop.

They said eminem wasn't pop. Khloe: It's
really important you guys vote from home.

All the acts are counting on you.
You don't want them... I just

fumbled. You don't want to wait 'til
the end of the show, or else your

votes won't count. Mario: When we
come back, a big Alicia keys megahit.

It's emblem.

Mario: Welcome back. This
is "The X Factor" diva night.

Right now here is the final act from the groups.
Khloe: And here's Simon.

Cowell to introduce the act. Simon: I'm not
trying to get people to vote for this group

intentionally, but I just want everyone to know
at home that they saved kittens from drowning

in a lake this week and risked their own lives.
Thought I'd mention that.

Anyway, the diva song we're
singing is Alicia keys' "no one."

The band is emblem. Mario:
Sixth place goes to emblem.

Simon, where did you think they were
going to come in on the leader board?

Number one. Sixth place was a shock.
We've been getting so many good

compliments. Showed us
we really need to work.

Simon: I think it's a complete
disaster the fact we're sixth.

It really bothers me. I expect
it to be higher this week.

It's like really weird to hear number six.
I was like, six, are you feeling

okay? I was kind of
shaken about the rankings.

I realize we have something to work towards now.
I take this competition very

seriously, because when I was in high school,
I was really struggling with finding my

identity. We dropped
out my senior year.

I had a realization, I have to flip everything
around and start doing something positive.

Best thing that ever happened was starting a band.
I always knew I got wes,

keaton. They always kept me in check.
We'll always be there.

Me and keaton, we've got your back.
We b*at the odds.

We definitely did. We're here to work.
We're here to dedicate our lives

to this. It's what we live for.
Yeah.

It's amazing. Announcer: Emblem.

L.A.: Emblem, you guys have the perfect
vocal blend. It was the perfect song.

You are complete superstars in my opinion.
And you're exactly what this

show needs. I could not be happier.
Thank you so much.

It is such an honor to be on the stage.
I love everybody.

Thank you so much. Thank you so much.
Demi: I totally get why the

girls are swooned by you. You
guys are complete heartthrobs.

Demi: What I enjoy about watching you
guys is you're genuinely happy and you have

such a great energy. I think it was
definitely better than last week.

You've definitely showed an improvement.
Thank you.

Thank you. Simon: Guys, you know,
when the results came in last week,

when we saw you in seventh place, there
is no way you should be that low in the

competition. And I think this time on
the back of that performance we're

going to see you right at the top,
because it was absolutely brilliant.

Thank you. Please vote.
Please vote.

Mario: After the break, it is Cece frey.
She survived a sing-off last

week, but the pressure is on her again tonight.
We'll be right back after this.

Mario: Welcome back to "the x
factor." In just a few minutes, the

voting lines will be open and you'll
decide which acts go through to next week.

The results will be revealed tomorrow night.
Khloe: And we'll have a

sensational performance from one of the bigge
esgest stars on th planet, Taylor swift, you won't

want to miss it. Mario: Here
is the final act of the night.

It's the last of the young adults.
Let's go to Demi Lovato.

Demi: I genuinely believe that this
next performer, I saved the best for last.

She's going to do incredible tonight.
And she's going to show you how

bad she wants this. Give it up for Cece frey.
Last week I was in the bottom

two. It's scary. Every
day is starting to feel

like an elimination day. I
can't go home now. It sucks.

My mom's at home and she's watching
me every week. It does get hard.

Seeing the other contestants with
their family here, my family is at home.

Every week we're so excited to see you.
I really miss you guys.

Seeing you is making me homesick.
It's not that my parents

wouldn't be here. We don't have
the money to just fly out here.

We would be out there in a heartbeat.
I know.

It does get tough, you know. It's tough for
them to fly from decatur to here because I'm

having a hard time will cost them a
few thousand dollars. I love you.

I miss you, mom. Bye.
This week I am in dire need

of a comeback. Demi: We need
to re-establish who Cece is.

I need to remind everybody that
I do have the talent to be here.

Your family is not here. Sing to them in the camera.
They're watching at home.

I'm either going to go up or go home.

L.A.: Hello, Cece. Oh, my God.
I'm just at a loss for words,

you know. You sang the song really well.
It's an improvement.

It really is. But you always sing really well.
So I don't know what to say.

I... Demi: Hater. L.A.:
Don't like your dress.

Demi: Sorry she was better than your vino.
L.A.: She came in at the

bottom and my vino was number three.
My guess is she'll be at the

bottom again. Demi: We'll see.
L.A.: I know that I'm right.

Britney: Sorry. I just don't get it.
L.A.: Say something to

Britney. You've got so much lip.
Say something to Britney.

Simon: Cece, I like you because you're a trier.
But the song was called "all by"

"myself." And I think you would have
been better singing it on your own.

With no one else in the room. It was
very cabaret. The wind machine.

All the gimmicks. For whatever reason,
you're not getting it right together, you

two. Something isn't working.
Demi: I think that tonight of

all the other nights that we've seen you
perform, I think that you nailed it.

And I feel like also, I feel like
they're being way too hard on you.

Of all the people in the competition,
I know you want it the most.

Hopefully America will see that and root for you.
I accept the criticism.

I'm just going to keep working on this.
I'll do my best out here.

Mario: Good for you. That's all you can do.
Listen, you've seen all acts.

Who do you want to stay in the competition?
If you didn't like how your

favorite ranked last week, now is
the time to do something about it.

Here we go. The lines are now open.
Here's just a quick reminder of

tonight's performances along with
all the info you need to vote.

Mario: And by chance if you missed
those numbers, go to thexfactorusa.Com.

Remember, they are numbers, not or ,
so please don't get that wrong, and you can vote

as often as you like by toll-free and text.
You can also download the xtra

factor app and voting will stay open two hours after the show.
If you don't vote, your favorite

won't make it. Taylor Swift tomorrow night.
We'll see you then.
