'X Factor' Results: One Direction Performs & Someone Is Eliminated

Courtesy of FOX

Tonight we found out exactly where each of the top 13 acts stands in the votes! Do you think the right person was sent home?

One Direction kicked off the Nov. 8 episode of The X Factor with its hit single “Live While We’re Young,” and I totally fan-girled over Harry Styles the whole time. (He’s legal!) Then we were subjected to NFL quarterback Drew Brees trying to make jokes as the “sixth member.” It was super cheesy, but luckily the boys of 1D performed again with their new song “Little Things,” and we got to look back at their journey from X Factor to stardom.

As for the top 13, these are the acts that made it through in order of most-voted:

Tate Stevens
Carly Rose Sonenclar
Vino Alan
Diamond White
Fifth Harmony
Emblem3
Jennel Garcia
Paige Thomas
Lyric145
Beatrice Miller
Arin Ray

What. The. Hell. Like Simon Cowell, I was SHOCKED that Emblem3 was so low and Vino was so high. Tate’s not that great, but he is the only country guy so it makes sense. Still, Carly Rose should have been No. 1, hands down. What is America thinking?!

Nevertheless, this left CeCe Frey and Jason Brock to sing for survival, which didn’t surprise me at all. CeCe sang Cher‘s “You Haven’t Seen the Last of Me” and it was all over the place. Jason did much better with his song (and the best song ever) “Total Eclipse of the Heart” by Bonnie Tyler, but it still wasn’t that amazing. I didn’t care for either of them, to be honest.

Who Should Have Gone Home: CeCe Frey

Who Did Go Home: Jason Brock (It came down to America’s vote.)

What did you think of the results, HollywoodLifers? Were you surprised or sad that Jason was eliminated? What did you think of the voting order? Drop us a comment with your reaction to the final 12!

What? Tate is # 1? That makes no sense…he is just a marginal country singer and his performance last night was not breathtaking or extremely memorable. I think it must have been his family and friends with absolutely nothing else to do, who voted form him ten million times via a cell phone app or something. I thought about voting but it seemed like too much work so I did not. I don’ t really care for most of the contestants. There are a few however that I believe have some sort of potential. my favorites are Emblem 3, Lyric 145 and Page Thomas, who placed at the bottom of the pack. It is just unbelievable…

I was so totally shocked that emblem 3 wasn’t number one let alone in the top 3! I don’t see how Tate is number one at all, there are so many people way better than he is.

I agree with Aly. I thought Tate had his worst night last night and received the top spot. What’s up America??? Cece should have gone home tonight. She does not belong in this competion at all. She is out of her league!!!
