i sent away for xfactor 2010 and i never got a letter a letter sent to me :s what do i do?
ive wanted to go on it for years but i had to wait till i was 16.
Guys, the dates above are 4 the Xfactor live tour…….. not the auditions so dont get confused. U do not need to bring the confirmation letter with you to your audition, you can just show up however you may need it after the 1st round. Also the camera work for the auditions starts at approx 8 am so aim to be there by then. actual auditions wont begin until 2pm or so. I know xfactor are coming to croke park in may, but no dates have been confirmed yet. hope that helps, see you at the auditions!!!
