Betting On The X Factor 2005
17th June 2008, by Taylor Luk
Centrebet offers The X Factor betting odds throughout the singing contest that is the brainchild of Idol 'hanging judge' and record company executive Simon Cowell. A star of American Idol, Pop Idol and World Idol, Cowell devised The X Factor with a view to finding talented performers who did not meet Idol's strict rules regarding age and numbers. Idol excludes thirtysomethings and groups, whereas The X Factor encourages older vocalists and teams to enter its competition.

The X Factor Australia 2005:
The Australian version of the X Factor will commence in January 2005. The X Factor comprises four parts. Naturally, the first phase is a round of national auditions where singers in The X Factor's three categories - individuals between the ages of 16 and 24 inclusive, individuals over the age of 24 and vocal groups - set out to make an excellent first impression on the three judges. Television star Sharon Osbourne and music guru Louis Walsh joined Cowell on the panel for The X Factor's debut series in the United Kingdom. Singer Kate Ceberano, producer Mark Holden and manager John Reid will preside over Australia's first run.
The purpose of the second and third phases - Boot Camp and Home Visit - is to narrow down the overall field to nine artists. Each judge becomes responsible for one of the three categories, which means that they are overseeing the development of three individuals or groups. Then the competition goes live, with spectacular performance shows after which the general public and judges vote. The X Factor winner receives a recording contract from Cowell's firm, Sony BMG.
