The X Factor US: Season 1 - SEASON OVER!
Prophet:
And the "random" assigning of groups to judges went just as I predicted :lol:
SIMON COWELL: Girls
PAULA ABDUL: Groups
L.A. REID: Boys
NICOLE SCHERZINGER: Over 30s
The next two weeks will be the judges house stage. Then the live shows will begin on October 25.

Prophet,
Your list is OK as far as the initial choices. However, the X-Factor producers pulled a fast one on us. Count your Groups and you get 6, not the desired 8. The judges did not deem additional groups as worthy. They filled in the last 2 slots by allowing Boys and Girls (who were present in the group of about 67 in much higher numbers than the Over 30s or Groups) to be placed into a mixed group of 10 and a group of 4. At some point we will find out who those groups are.
apskip:
I have selected my personal favorites in each category:
Boys - Chris Rene (isn't he at age 31 a bit old to be considered a Boy?)
Girls - Caitlin Koch, Rachel Crow, Melanie Amaro
Over 30s - Leroy Bell (Go, Leroy!), Josh Krajcik, Stacy Francis
Groups - Brewer Boys, Stereo Hogzz (even though L.A. Reid labelled them inconsistent)
I wish them all well. Next week half of each group will be cut by the end of the Wednesday night episode and I bet half again will be cut on Thursday night's episode. That will mean 8 performers, 2 from each group, will continue the training regimen.
I thought Simon Cowell as the mastermind behind X-Factor has been brilliant in providing counseling from vocal coaches, make-up artists, choreographers and stylists. The knowledge learned will be useful to all the competitors.

Here are the two formed groups of girls and boys:
Lakoda Rayne (group of 4)

I am just LOVING this show. There is a lot of talent in the groups but Stacy Francis brought tears to my eyes with her last performance. I was beginning to get upset that they named her last. It was agony waiting for her name to be called. Video here: http://www.thexfactorusa.com/videos/stacy-francis-bootcamp-audition
I also love Rachel Crow, she's a natural entertainer, when she hits the stage, she's ON!
I was surprised that Audrey Taylor didn't make the cut.
