‘The X Factor’ UK spoilers: Are Stevi Ritchie, Jack Walton, or Lizzy Pattinson wild cards?

One day before Saturday’s live show for “The X Factor” UK, we may finally know the answer to a question that is on the minds of many: Who are the wild cards for the season?

Before today, it was basically revealed that boy band Overload, who did not even make it to Judges’ Houses, and young singer Lola Saunders will be joining the Groups and the Girls, respectively. Now, we’ve got a little bit more information to add to the heap.

Overs – According to the Daily Star, you better prepare to see a whole lot more of Stevi Ritchie. The controversial performer was supposedly picked by Cheryl Cole, who may have been drinking the Louis Walsh Kool-Aid, for the category. We knew that Helen Fulthorpe had no chance at this (don’t want another Sam Bailey), and Lizzy Pattinson seemed to be persona non grata from the beginning. Obviously, someone was afraid that Robert Pattinson fans would vote her through to the finals, even though she was much more talented musically.

Yes, Stevi is in many ways rubbish as a singer, but we’ll at least say that the guy is a whole lot of fun. We could also make it a few weeks given how well Rylan Clark did a couple of years ago.

Boys – This one is entirely expected. Simon apparently picked Jack Walton to join Mel B’s team. We like Jack, but we also wonder if he will get lost in the shuffle early. This is the irony of this show: Someone who is more talented than Stevi may get eliminated early, mostly because he doesn’t have the same pop on stage.
