4SURE BOYS GET THE PUSH
By Lara Gould Tv Reporter
BOYBAND 4Sure became the second act to be voted off the X Factor last night.
The four-piece group performed Rod Stewart's You're In My Heart - which led acid-tongued judge Simon Cowell to say they sounded like a bunch of pensioners.
He said: "It was old-fashioned, wet and a bit ploddy. If I turned on the radio and heard you I'd think you were a group of 80-year-olds."
Fellow judges Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne loved the band, but Cowell had the casting vote.
The band - Donovan Bailey, 38, Kriss Jones, 24, Jermaine Sanderson, 23, and Andrew Fisher, 30 - were given the chop ahead of solo singer Robert Allen.
The hospital ward clerk impressed the judges with his version of Otis Redding's hit, Try A Little Tenderness.
But 4Sure singer Kriss said: "We've enjoyed ourselves. We can't do anything more."
