The final NEXT Factor Daily Dose….

Last night of booty camp

So, apologies for this not being posted yesterday. As our girl has gotten further into the competition it’s got increasingly hard to have contact. Yesterday, as predicted was very dramatic and drawn out, hence I’m a day late posting this! The massive news is: The 3 Buffketers, or ‘Frank’ as they now seem to now be called, have made it through Booty Camp! Due to legal reasons, I’m incredibly sad to say this will be my last NEXT Factor Daily post as they’ve made her sign some sorta confidentiality agreement as expected, and smuggling news out just aint worth the drama of getting caught. I’m kinda surprised we got this far (famous last words). Any way, I have no idea where she is or what the next round entails but I’m sure she’ll find a way of getting news out somehow. As ever, will keep you posted.

So, I leave you with her final Tweets and texts in the last 24hrs and I’m sure you are equally as excited and proud as we are. Go, follow her on Twitter as you never know what incrypted messages our lady mabe able to smuggle out!

‘Hey well basically two days ago we got put into Frank. After all that emotional bull shit! We chose to sing Rose Royce, Wishing on a star. Last nights performance (in my eyes) didn’t go very well: we were out and the girls forgot their lyrics! But I did fuck the crowd up with my rap! My vocal was well recieved too! the audience gave us a standing ovation but we found it hard to bask in because we were disapointed with the way we performed! We had it down in rehearsals but must’ve just lost the confidence on stage! Dunno to be fair! Its in the judges hands! Right now we’re conjuring up conspiracy theories about there being a final sly secret performance! Who knows. All I know is that I’m tired and I want to see my family and friends! This fucking locked up prison shit is a mind fuck! My body is always tense and my voice forever battered!’

The NEXT Factor Day 6

3 buffketeers

Morning folks! I haven’t heard much from our lady since learning that the 3 Buffketeers were still in the running to nail this thing. They had been considering the name ‘Frank’ but they’ve since gone back to the drawing board after discovering it was already taken. I’m presuming from Graziella’s Tweets that today is going to be another roller coaster, it’s at the point where they’re really trying to whittle  them down. It also sounds like exactly what we hoped wasn’t going to happen is happening,  they’re trying to tone them down and make them sound genertic. Don’t even get me started on this…..I feel a soapbox moment coming on.

Twitter:

Rehearsing with the girls!Rose Royce wishing on a star!We decided on frank as a band name but apparently it’s taken so keep comin wit names!about 22 hours ago

The NEXT Factor Day 4

next factor team

It’s been mighty quiet on the Grazy front last 12hrs. I think it’s most likely a case of calm before the next storm. I know they were all hype after making it through the last 3 days and all that jazz (hands). So, I think the 3 buffketeers have been resting up them fineselves after all that ‘Grandma skankin’ (Watch this will be the next UK Funky mixdown). 

The only picture to go on is the the one above, it looks like the ladies have found themselves the next JLS or whatever to roll with. Either way it’s all very Destiny’s Child Vs Boyz II Men but kinda gangsta and there is some cider being thrown about (cue sponsorship from well known cider brand). Maybe they’ve been busy skanking to UK Funky in someone’s room and throwing TVs outta windows. Hmmm, on one bokle that is doubtful. Either way, we see it as no news is good news!

I’ll keep you posted as ever. In the meantime, take a moment to check out Graziella’s myspace and follow her on Twitter - I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, she’s the NEXT Factor people. We’re proud of your girl!

The NEXT Factor!

The beautiful Graziella

Our kid, the stupendous talent and tour de Force, Graziella has got past all the initial preliminaries on X-Factor and was shipped off to boot camp yesterday. I thought it’d be nice to keep y’all in the loop with her adventures as a way of showing support, being part of the journey (it’s all love fam) and as we here feel she IS the NEXT factor. Plus we’ve heard about nothing else for the past month! For those of you unfamiliar with the name, the voice, the ‘mild wild child’ I point you in this direction: http://www.myspace.com/graziellaaffinita I assure you, you won’t be disapointed. She’s worked with some of the biggest in UK hip hop talents: Asaviour, DJ IQSkrein,  Foreign Beggars and  more.

Now, I’m not strictly sure about the rules and regulations of her smuggling these juicy news morsals out of Camp Del Factor but, until I get in trouble or shut down, I will stand firm in my duty to be the ‘Daily Grazy’ newswire! So, make sure you check back for the daily update ya heard!

Location of bootcamp unknown. All we know is she’s residing in a hotel somewhere, she has found a crew of uber RnB homies/hotties (Mr Beat Butcha appears to be a fan), there’s a swimming pool and she has told us the food is good.

So, hold tight and here we go.

Monday 27th July:

Text: ‘Hey just settled in!! Got to the hotel as the restaurant closed! So had to go get a shish kebab (our lady is so real)! Feel really tired. Ppl were singing by a grand piano (still no hint of location there), really getting involved….nerves kicked in. Everyone’s amazing! I’m sharing a room with a nice girl but I found a clique that are in Japan (is that a hint??!!) the other side of the hotel. They gave us £10 for dinner n i get to sleep in tomorrow. I’m just drinking some chai tea readying for sleep. Will keep you posted as much as possible.’
