Demi Lovato Owned by ‘X Factor’ Contestant

E! presented a promo for the upcoming season of X Factor and what better way to promote the show than to feature terrible auditions and butthurt contestants. Everybody loves a failure. Even more so failures who go out in a ball of flames.

One contestant came on, did a Walk Like an Egyptian type dance and was laid into by the judges. But he didn’t walk off stage with whatever grace and dignity he had left. No. That’s not good tv. He plead his case whining, “I worked way too friggin hard for this.” Demi Lovato replied, “A lot of people work really, really hard for their dreams but it’s not meant for everybody.” To which the guy said, “That’s why you use auto-tune and I don’t.”

Does anyone have some ice? Because Demi Lovato just got burned. At least Demi had a snappy comeback. Wait, no she didn’t. The only thing she could come up with to say was, “Actually…” before trailing off.

Actually she did have a comeback. People who were there we’re sharing that she was arguing with the guy. It will most likely get played on tv. How was this an owning? Though? She has a career. He doesn’t. He’s still stuck st his menial job at Wendy’s. The Internet is fucking stupid

You do realize that you can use Auto-tune in live performances right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRB98dibQ6c

Thank You! It’s about? time? that somebody called out these autotune/melodyne using lip synching no talent losers. Britney has used autotune on every one of her albums since Oops, I Did It Again and Demi is an ex-Disney kid that has probably used autotune on every one of her albums.

From the tone of your post, it’s to
assume that you have no idea WHAT auto tune really is. Just like
every other misinformed idiot on the internet, you talk out of your
ass. Newsflash oh mentally retarded one. Auto tune isn’t some magical
device that will make you a better singer. It’s a minor pitch
correction. If you suck at singing, the best equipment in the world
won’t make you a better singer. You fail at logic. Now kill yourself
for your stupidity.

I think it may be you who is the idiot (and not to mention one with a major bug up his ass!). No, auto tune does not make one a better singer, but it certainly does camouflage a grating voice that would make a beagle’s ears bleed, and Britney Spears is certainly no stranger to manipulating her voice in order to make it sound moderately better. If you disagree with someone, try forming a thoughtful response instead of making yourself out to be a malicious cretin (although I do appreciate the irony). Have a nice day ; )

I agree with you but If you have actually heard Britney sing without autotune she’s actually ok. I think she just doesn’t sing live because since she hasn’t done it regularly since she was a kid it would be terrifying now not to mention she used to do crazy dance routines.

I agree Luke, even Justin Timberlake has admitted to using voice stabilizers during live shows because of that reason. It is practically humanly impossible to jump around on stage as much as many of these artists do and pull off the notes they do.

Just think about going for a run, while hopping over things and having a conversation, while it is not the same thing as performing, it is pretty hard for the average person to do without huffs, puffs and changes in your tone.

Now imagine trying to sing during your run.

If you honestly believe that, then you’re an idiot. I’ve heard Bruce Dickinson sing live while running around. He sounds just like any other mediocre live singer.

Actually Auto tune is merely a pitch
controlling device. Nothing more nothing less. It can only do so much
with a shitty singer. Hence why Rebecca black still sounds like crap.
If you knew ANYTHING about REAL auto tune you’d know that the only
thing it does is makes minor changes to your pitches. I told that
person to kill them selves because they would serve humanity better
as a corpse. As would you. So feel free to spare us your stupidity at
any time by jumping into a lake and not coming back up :)

Jack, let me help you out. I’m actually in the music industry, fairly high up within a huge corporation and not just a garage producer. I’m not sure who you are or what you do, so I will explain this as if you didn’t know anything, in order to help others who may read this and will not understand. There are products out there that do amazing things for artists, one of the most used out there is the TC Helicon VoiceOne MIDI Pitch Correction Auto-tune Harmonizer Vocal Effects Rack. This thing is so amazing that it can even change… Read more »

No she was laughing because she owned his ass later on. This was the edited clip in which she got into a verbal fight with a 50 year old pedo. Dumb ass

Anyone believing this is incredibly naive. This was promo for X-Factor, to create hype. I’m not sure if people know the TV industry, but most competent people realize most of it is fake. Demi actually did reply to him, but this was cut and edited in a way to create more hype. Looking at everyone taking the bait so fucking easily, apparently treating people like ignorant dickheads works perfectly to create hype :) Demi doesn’t need autotune, but those who instanly believe this have probably not even heard her live. She can actually sing. For those who want to know… Read more »

I don’t think people realise that nearly every artist uses autotune.It mightn’t be detectable in most songs but they do use it.An artist I believe is considered talented on whether they can perform to a good standard live and that is something Demi Lovato can do.I’ve seen a few of her live performances and she is almost better live than in studio.But of course after reading a few of the comments on here it seems as though this site has people who comment that seem immature so you probably couldn’t give two shits about what I just said.However I was… Read more »

Also here’s an unedited clip of what happened back during the filming of it. The FULL clip of this guy getting REAL criticism. And him hitting on teenagers.

So to everyone who is supporting this guy, congrats to you. You’re supporting someone who is a potential sex offender.

Okay, I know that the x factor is sorta known for judges that say mean things to the contestants but sometimes they take it to far. That demi lavato girl was said a hurtful thing to that guy and he responded in a way that was meant to hurt her back. I would think she of all people would know what it feels like to have people say hurtful thing to or about u. Didn’t she go to rehab for bulimia and wasn’t she cutting herself? That just proves she knows what its like to be harshly judged by people… Read more »

If you watch the original clip you’ll see that she originally said that I didn’t like it. Thats all. She gave her honest opinion and it was that she didn’t like it. It wasn’t until he started insisting that he got through she brought out that comment. Also she said his dream wasn’t going to come true and it wasn’t. I doubt he’s gonna be the next John Lennon at the age of 50.

Oh, I didn’t know that she was originally trying to let him down nicely. I thought that she just flat out told the guy that mean thing as soon as he was done singing. Thanks for clearing that up for me and for not being mean about it. Although, it still was a little harsh I mean we all know that amazing singers are a dime a dozen. I can’t tell u how many amazingly talented singers I have seen on television that never became stars. No matter how much they work or how young and good looking they are… Read more »
