Schedule Change For X Factor Performance Show on Sunday
Bumped: The X Factor
November 10th, 2016 By David Knox
This is a bit of a big deal.
Seven has pushed The X Factor from its 7pm start on Sunday to 8pm.
Sunday Night will screen at 7pm in its place.
The move follows disappointing ratings for the show this season, amid speculation it may not return next year.
For the kind of money the show is costing Seven it would be a timeslot move it would not take lightly.
The show will now wrap at 10pm according to guides.
Monday’s verdict show is still in play at 7:30pm Monday.

Adam Lambert admits he got ‘carried away’ when dissing Iggy Azalea

ADAM Lambert has admitted that he got “a little carried away” when he dissed fellow X Factor judge Iggy Azalea in a series of interviews.
Earlier this week Lambert labelled the Aussie rapper a diva and suggested her behaviour stems from her lack of knowledge about singing.
“I think she’s embarrassed that she doesn’t know anything about singing,” Lambert said to 2Day FM’s Rove and Sam, “so maybe she’s just defensive”.
“Guy [Sebastian] and I are giving all this technical talk, so maybe she just feels threatened.”
Lambert also suggested that Azalea didn’t spend too much time working one-one-one with her musical groups in the competition.
“I’m like, ‘maybe the people you’re mentoring might be kind of important, just a thought ... isn’t that why you’re here?’” Lambert said to Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa.
The 34-year-old even revealed that Azalea’s contestants, who have all since been eliminated, used to approach him for advice.
“I don’t know if I should talk about it — but they came into my dressing room and were like ‘what should we do?’ so I just tried to help, off the record,” he said.
Speaking to news.com.au today, Lambert said he was probably too harsh with his comments about Azalea.
“The last round of press that I did, I might have gotten a little carried away with my commentary,” he said laughing.
“As I said, it’s nothing Iggy wouldn’t basically tell you herself. I did read it back though and I went, ‘Oh god, I sound like I’m so harsh.’”
When asked if he was ordered to diss Azalea purely to stir up controversy in an attempt to boost ratings for the Channel Seven show, Lambert said: “It’s hard to explain. It’s almost like a sibling rivalry, healthy competition between all four of us.
“We tease each other so much backstage and it’s funny. We try to mess with each other in all ways. We make little digs on camera and backstage and I think we all get that this is a great, fun competition.”
Speaking of the competition, Lambert’s two remaining hopefuls, Isaiah Firebrace and Amalia, now each have a one in five chance of winning X Factor Australia.
“I think they’re both really talented and they’re both so different so it really depends on what kind of music you like,” Lambert said when asked who he thinks will win.
Lambert was delighted though (and a little confused) when it was revealed to him that at the time of the interview, Sportsbet had him listed as the $1.30 favourite to be the winning judge with Isaiah Firebrace the $1.60 favourite contestant to win the show.
“Oh wow,” he said, “I don’t actually know what that means.”
“I think after this week we might even up the odds for both of them. The songs this week are really exciting.”
One thing that isn’t as exciting for Lambert though is the result of the US election (seamless segue).
“Oh lord, it’s a mess,” Lambert, a proud Hillary Clinton supporter said.
“I’m not really super educated in terms of politics but I watched the majority of the debates and it was just so obvious to me that she was the person I would rather represent my country to my country and to the rest of the world.
“What she said made sense, she was a clear communicator, she has experience, all that stuff. Any time he [Donald HeWhoCannot amed] spoke I just thought he didn’t make any sense. I didn’t even understand what he was saying! I think he appealed to a certain type of person that is very opposite to the type of people that I know and respect.”
