Re Natalia Kills. If she thinks she can tell Nzlnders to I won't say what she said. Then she is in the wrong country. Her statement "I can do what I want". No you can't you have not earnt that right. Someone needs to ground her, because clearly her success has gone to her head. Sorry to get OT. But Bullying has been a big focus in NZ. And for her to make light of it in such a destructive way really annoys me. Shes no Lorde . To be honest, I've read the article about Natalia and looked up pictures of her husband, but I don't get the problem with the contestant. The contestant was wearing a suit, like a few other men on this planet. Did he imitate the husband's singing or specific signature look? I'm mystified..

Which is a laugh coming from her. I Think she thinks he ripped off her husbands style and look. But like he diddn't rip off Frank Sinatra e.t.c. It was just a narcisstic felt rant thats all.

Unfortunately yes. Their target demo is mostly targeted at 18-35. So embellishing your age I well say is more appropriate then actual lieing. BBC 2 in the uk I think targets more older listners. But BBC1 is more Top 40 Younger based. LOL! "So embellishing your age I well say is more appropriate then actual lieing." What's the difference between 'embellishing and lying'? As long as I can still hear and feel the music and shake my a$$.....then I think my opinion is just as viable in judging music as anyone else. I know...I know....but that's not how the music industry and radio see it. Well...."F" them...but I'll play their game ONLY because it's for AFL! I wouldn't do it for anyone else. But I'll be damned if I'm going to let them make me feel my opinion is less significant or important because of my age. Well....glad I got that off my 'old' chest! Now guess I'll go take a music survey and be 29 yrs old and HOLDING!!

Embellishing as in exagerrating. I'm 26 so I don't have to haha. Radio Dj's check stuff like Itunes charts. And at Spotify beleive it or not they check demographics partic age ranges. So yeah its shallow but its the way it is. Pop Music is mostly targeted to younger fans. Of course age doesent matter you can listin no ones stopping you. But when it comes to Radio DJ's forming their playlists, its important.

LindaG23 - I hope you are watching a little closer to home as well. Anti Discrimination bills have been introduced in many States this year. I definitely keep an eye close to home and put my money, my vote, and my mouth where my heart is.

Hmmm, this link is saying that they were fired. m.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=11417884TV3 sacks X Factor judges Willy Moon and Natalia KillsTV3 has sacked Natalia Kills and Willy Moon from The X Factor after the husband and wife judges bullied a contestant on live TV last night.
Mediaworks, the owners of TV3, confirmed it had fired Kills and Moon just hours before the pair were due to feature on tonight's live elimination show.
It's understood the media company was under extreme pressure from sponsors to take action against the pair.
In a statement to 3News, Mediaworks chief executive Mark Weldon said: "Last night on X Factor both Kills and Moon made comments that were completely unacceptable.
"While the judges on X Factor are expected to provide critiques of the performances, we will not tolerate such destructive tirades from any of the judges," he said.
"Contestants put their all into this competition and they should expect to receive feedback and criticism that is professional and constructive. We no longer have confidence that Kills and Moon are the right people to perform the role of X Factor judges and they will leave the show, effective immediately."
The makers of X Factor New Zealand are under pressure after two of the show's sponsors criticised the bullying of a contestant on live TV last night and judges Stan Walker and Melanie Blatt turned on Natalia Kills and Willy Moon over the incident.
TV3 was forced to apologise after husband and wife judges Kills and Moon humiliated contestant Joe Irvine and called him "disgusting" and "creepy".
Kills accused Irvine of copying her husband, fellow judge Willy Moon, "from the hair to the suit", and said he was a "laughing stock" and made her "sick". Moon added that Irvine reminded him of a creepy killer and found his performance of Cry Me a River "cheap and absurd".
