The X Factor semi-finals is happening in less than a week from now and the four acts moving through will finally be named tonight. Which of the six acts have the fans supported? To date, Britney Spears and Simon Cowell have the most number of acts in the competition (two a piece) while Demi Lovato and L.A. Reid each have one act left.

Carly Rose Sonenclar has…

The Voice Recap: Trevin Kills Quarterfinals Competition–Cee Lo (12/3/12)
The Top 6 who sing for America’s votes are: Cassadee and Terry of Team Blake; Amanda and Melanie of Team Adam; Nicholas and Trevin of Team Cee Lo.

Nicholas makeovers “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” Melanie is Lenka with “The Show.” Cassadee Pope gets emotional with “I’m with You.” Amanda is, in Simon Cowell’s words, “forgettable.” After Trevin Hunte sings “Walking on Sunshine” by Katrina and the Waves, Cee Lo Green asks for a moment of silence to mourn the death of competition. Adam…
