How to win XFactor.


With less than a week until we find out who has won that elusive XFactor record deal, things are really hotting up! The stakes are high and as the final three start practicing their last songs to win over the voting public, you are left thinking that maybe if you had auditioned earlier this year, you too could be attending film premieres and playing gigs at Disneyland... Maybe, Just maybe…

Well if you have set your heart on winning next year there is a simple formula that you should follow to secure your place in the 2013 final…

Firstly you need to build an unshakable hometown following. If you live somewhere small it is best that you move to a bigger town- preferably one with a strong identity and sense of community. You need friends in every hairdressers and café who will put up posters urging everyone to vote for you. A big family helps too- every distant cousin and friend of your grandmother needs to have your voting number on speed dial!

Next you need to find your own style. No matter how great your voice is, if you don’t have a definable style, people just won’t vote. Choose carefully- people want a style they can envy and emulate, but nobody likes a diva- the trick is to look effortlessly cool.

Next- and this is an important point- you need to find a sob story. Got no friends? Still live with your mum and work in a dead-end job? Great! The public will love you! Turn your misfortune into your biggest asset- hey, if life gives you lemons…!

The most important aspect in winning the XFactor is, of course, having a great voice. You need to be versatile enough to consistently bang out hits every single week no matter what the theme is. The best way to make sure you are ready for whatever inappropriate song Louis Walsh throws at you is to practice, practice, practice! Sing everyday and sing everything. Find out what suits you and add your own personal touch to every song. AppSing is the perfect accessory for any wannabe singer as it allows you to flex your vocal cords wherever you are. It transforms your phone or media device into the most amazing karaoke machine. You simply slot your smartphone or media device into the Appsing’s universal cage and load your favourite karaoke app, follow the lyrics on screen and sing into the built-in microphone. A separate speaker unit will blast out your singing in stereo sound for everyone to hear.
 
So if you think you have got what it takes, you better start practicing now!
