Debi is seeing all of your comments and appreciates the love and support! She can’t respond because she has tried to keep her accounts from being found but she’s very grateful for everyone’s kind words ♥️
It's interesting how x-factor portrayed these "bad audition contestants" as horrible people but when you hear the contestants side of the story you realize that they are actually lovely and caring people. Always thought these reality TV shows were manipulative, and I feel so bad for those who were there only to be humiliated.
Well said!
Jokes on them because they're auditions are more memorable then any of the winners
My heart instantly melted when I saw her in this video. Sorry we misjudged you Debbie
♥️♥️♥️
Debi seems lovely. I can’t believe what Louis said about her mother, disgusting!
She is awesome
Hi Debi..... I remember the first time I saw your audition and I was thinking “man how can they think that this girl isn’t talented?” I thought your voice was incredibly beautiful. I’m so glad to see you are doing well.
Reality shows like X Factor are just infomercials for famous people, and conflict equals ratings. If you go back and watch Debi’s audition, she sang it beautifully without any pitch issues, yet wannabe Simon Cowell (Louis) said she can’t sing? It’s too bad the producers wanted a different narrative with her. Debi is a lifer when it comes to art and singing. She radiates charisma and her voice gives goosebumps.
Thank you for posting this interview.
❤️
Well said!
The judges were full of shit saying she had "no charisma", one minute into this interview and she seems like such a sweet person!
Agreeeeeed
Her husband seems like an amazing person for staying with her even when she was likely at her worst.
Yea seemed like she had some good people around her between her husband and her family. That must’ve been such a hard experience for her to go through for so many years. But she is the victim in all this is would be wrong for anyone to leave her.
So glad to hear the real story. I'm so sorry you(Debi) had to go through that. It's despicable what the media does to get good ratings. Wonder how they would feel if they got a treatment like that.
I love her videos so much. The empathy she has in her heart to show the true colors of these contestants. Yah bless you sis please keep up the good work ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
You ROCK, Debi! Thank you so much for agreeing to an interview ❤
I love your approach to these topics. Glad Debbie is getting some support I've always liked her
Thank you, and same :)
Can we also mention how we disagree with Sharon Osbourne's comment on the clip about Debi having no charisma? Debi, you have INCREDIBLE charisma and total likeability. And thank you, Lady Candic, for clearing the air on all the horrible business surrounding Debi's botched audition which we suspected all along.😢😮
Couldn’t agree more and you’re very welcome
oh yeah, I forgot that part. Sharon was plain wrong. Debi was ultra charismatic. A lovely woman, no doubt.
@@mik8352sharon has always been a vile creature, i used to like her but hearing all these stories coming out about x factor and knowing she was complicit in the cover up has just made me hate her.
What a beautiful soul Debi has and thank you for doing this interview with her. ❤️ It makes me so sad that she was emotionally manipulated just for the sake of “entertaining TV”. I thought her singing was beautiful and when I first saw the audition, the judges’s responses seemed really out of place… I remember thinking “Why is Louis trying to hold back a smile right now while he is saying these mean things?”. As someone who is also pregnant right now, I can totally relate to the flood of hormones and emotions that you experience during such a sensitive time. It’s appalling the comments that they said about your mother and how they edited your responses to cut out your true responses. Thank you for being brave to share your true story ❤️ You’re a beautiful person inside and out and I hope you still sing to share your voice with others 💗
Thank you for those kind words. I know Debi will see this and appreciate the understanding and support ♥️
Truly shocking how these TV companies can just alter anything to fit their needs. They have no regard for the person, no empathy for them and what effect it could have on them. All they see is an innocent person that can make them a buck through exploitation. Debi seems lovely and the remarks about her mum are so wholesome and it would’ve completely grounded the audition. At the end of the day these shows aren’t for the people auditioning, not for the people viewing, but for the producers. And they’ll do what they can to make the most money out of it. Even if it means exploiting a lovely woman by twisting her words and setting her up. I wish all the best for Debi in future ❤
Very well said.
These videos are amazing,I have never seen them before. I think no-one has ever done this, it's amazing
That means a lot to me, thank you
@@LadyCandic it's me that thanks you
I recall Debbie saying "you know, what you're the one person I really didn't want to see because I really want to slap you right now", the person being Louie. I always thought that was odd because we never saw any interactions between Debbie and Louie up until the audition itself. Now I see why she was so angry
Really happy Debi got her say, i always thought it was weird how they made her seem so aggressive, she seems like a lovely person irl who's only stuck up for herself but the show twisted that and made her look antagonizing.
Debi if you read this, we support you 🙏
Ur audition was one of the most iconic on the show and in my eyes u are a star because you're more memorable then anyone who won, so they're plan to make you fail backfired ♥️
Agreed! She really is lovely
Even though Debbi regrets her audition now, I have always enjoyed viewing the (selectively edited) ‘angry’ auditions from these shows - not to laugh at the person auditioning, but because they had the guts to throw some of it back at the judges on these fake shows. I admire them for that, even if it ultimately backfires on them. We need more people to tell the judges/producers on these shows where to go! Thanks for tracking Debbi down; it’s great to finally hear her side of the story.
Thankyou so much for posting this update! ❤
You’re very welcome :)
Lady, I guess you know english is not my language so I will tell it with my words: "you said the magic phrase"
saying that the footage is edited and not in favor of the contestant... Well, I didn't even think about that (when viewing auditions).
That makes a complete different story ! Suddenly, the producers are a lot worse than the contestants !
Debi, it is the first time we hear from you ever since. And you really connected the dots. So many things that we didn't know.
Thank you for clarifying the situation.
Lady, once again you went over the impossible. 17 years !!! And you somehow convinced Debi. Amazing.
Big thumbs up to both of you
Thank you so much. We both very much appreciate your support 🙏
Thanks for the update! What a lovely woman!
Welcome :)
Incredible interview! Such insights! Well done Lady Candic ! I remember watching her audition in Munich, Germany. I did not thought she was bad in her audition, it's all money and ratings.
Def all money and ratings, and ty so much!
This is amazing how you managed to find and possibly interview past X Factor auditionees. I was wondering if you can do an interview with Gisela Lee. She was the girl who gave that pouty face in her 2009 audition. She also auditioned in a group called JAHM, who Simon labeled them as “the worst group the show ever had”
Thank you!! And yes Gisela would be a great one to look into. I’ll put her on the list :)
I always loved her voice she sang really well ❤
Yea I didn’t think her singing warranted any of those negative comments
Debbie is just one among the numerous victims of this scripted 'talent show.' I'm grateful that her, Zoe Alexander and several other contestants labeled as 'bad' or 'aggressive,' have spoken out about it. They've bravely revealed how producers were sabotaging them backstage, manipulating situations or heavily edited their words. It's truly disheartening to see this kind of manipulation gain viral attention, resulting in these women facing mockery and undeserved repercussions. They certainly didn't deserve such treatment - their auditions were good.
Yes! So much happened behind the scenes and I’m so glad they’re speaking out. Perhaps with more voices we can stop it from happening to more people. Talent competitions have buttoned up these behaviors in recent days but there is still work to be done
Oh wow!! Look who it is! And what a lovely lady she is! Disgusting hearing how the show treated her, horrible!
She is very lovely.. and Disgusting indeed!
Your content is everything I have ever wanted. You just gained a subscriber.
Thank you so much, comments like this makes it all worth it :)
Hey Debi...despite what the trolls have told you in the past, I just wanted to let you know I thought your singing voice was good. Problem is you have to be spectacular to make it to the big time...which would be asking so much more than most of us can truly offer. I can say that you sing better than a large percentage of people in this world who attempt to do it, and that you've got absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. Don't be afraid to put your voice out there again even if it's just doing karaoke somewhere...as long as it makes you feel good when you sing for people. Trolls have no lives and only exist to come up with things to say that hurt other people so you can't take their cruelty to heart, and you can't live the rest of your life dwelling on the negative spotlight that was put on you by that show. The people out there will believe that you're not who you were portrayed to be if you get out there and show them the truth. Just remember something Debi...no matter how they made you look...you're always going to be a celebrity for the rest of your life now..and you're famous. People want to see and interact with a star, and now that you've went on national tv and sang...most people will honestly be putting you on a pedestal if you showed up somewhere to do a song (so be sure you knock 'em dead if you do). You got a great smile and personality and you deserve to be happy, so don't forget that happiness only starts once you've taken the first step toward it. Open yourself up to the world and embrace it because you're only young once, and the things in life that scare you and you have doubt about hardly ever go the way you think they will. I hope you see this and it helps your outlook some because you need to know that there are people out here...even strangers like me...that care about you and want nothing but to see you happy. Good luck Debi!
♥️
Great video and she seems like a really nice person it’s a shame that most of the bad auditions they do this to them I just can’t imagine all the hate she gets 🤷🏾♂️🤦🏾
Thank you and she’s very nice :)
Debi, I know it was a long time ago, but I'm so sorry you had to go through all that. I always liked your singing, and you looked nice, too!
She seems like a lovely human.
Agreed :)
She change so much I guess we all grow and turn different.
She’s an awesome person
Good on ya, Debbie, for defending your mum like that! Here's a high five coming your way! 🖐 Now I'm curious what happened to the other Zoe, the one who was portrayed bursting out crying and whining like a spoilt 3 year old. Wonder how they wound her up, poor soul 😢
Oh my goodness yea maybe hers wasn’t what it looked like either.
It’s on her channel she talked about it just search up Zoe Alexander the truth about x factor
The other Zoe? There's another Zoe who got screwed over by X Factor? Because Zoe Alexander has spoken extensively about how the show manipulated her.
@@morbidsearch ua-cam.com/video/5rg_j9ceEeQ/v-deo.htmlsi=ZDISl0Di5MJGxEYb&t=789
She seems very sweetheart.
We’ve kept in touch, she’s very sweet
She absolutely could sing! Music has been a huge part of her and her families life.. the audience wasn't made aware of any of this.. wow there are always rumors that auditions were edited but wow i underestimated the degree. Thanks for the update Debbie!
Yea, I knew they were edited but I was still very surprised by how much. Shouldn’t even be labeled as reality tv it’s more like manipulated tv lol
@@LadyCandic 💯 what I concluded from the podcast, is that the producer's made it appear like her reaction was due to not being able to go through. ALL the other things they said to her unrelated to that was edited OUT hmmm . It certainly would have made Louie look bad to have him filmed insulting a contestants mother ! Right? I think she was a target due to her involvement with the water ! That request put her on the producer's radar and the Judges were probably instructed to aggravate her to generate a strong reaction which she did! I mean Louie telling her as a first comment "you will never ever be pop star" that is really really strong and not necessary!
@@gradetrend8138exactly!
This interview is super interesting and I didn't realise how much producer meddling there was. Just subscribed.
Agreed, and thank you!
subscribed. your videos are brilliant and so important. The other side of the story needs to be told, and the corruption exposed. Debi, you have such a great talent x
Thank you so much ❤️
Unbelievable how they try to ruin these people’s lives for VIEWS! Thank you for sharing!
Agreed!
Really good interview Debbie is so cool 😎
Thank you, and she is awesome :)
It's so good to see that Debi's doing well now, and married to the same man she was with then. She doesn't seem a victim. I liked her voice from the start. There are parallels with the experiences of other contestants who have (or had) talent, but fell out with the panel. Zoe Alexander and the late Ariel Burdett spring to mind, but there are others. It seems the producers insist contestants big themselves up, making them sacrificial lambs for the judges to "put in their place". Things have changed. Simon Cowell wouldn't tell a contestant he looked like a bushbaby now, because mental health trouble is something that can afflict anyone and everyone, and awareness has grown - quite possibly in part due to these talent shows.
This is a great interview, and I'm off to Part 2 now. Thanks for doing this - I'd felt sad for Debi since the show went on to UA-cam. To think she was pregnant at the time! Glad she had the baby to keep her busy. Love beats any TV show.
Very well said ♥️
I love that you show us the real stuff🫶✨️ I do love x-factor, but i don't like the way how they made some contestants look crazy. Thank you @lady candic❤️ We love you Debbie❤️
Agreed and thank you as well
Shows like the X factor are vile. It is shocking how they manipulate people and cause so much harm. Than you for making these videos and giving the people featured a voice about what really happened.
You are right thank you
I always noticed a trend with this type of audition/contestant. They took particular joy in humiliating good singers that would have been great live with a band, and acted like they were talentless idiots with no place in music because they weren't totally trained Xtina types. They did it to Debi, Holly Jervis, even that weirdo Rachel that sang "Sugar Walls." Just because they're not a fit for X Factor doesn't mean they're nothing. Not surprised by anything Debi is saying, I grew up with talk shows that used similar tactics. Thanks for this interview!
Well said!
Well done for posting this, I had no idea this was even a thing, that the filming industry manipulates contestants like this, and it's good for the truth to finally come out! Well done for Debbie too, to come out and reveal the truth! In case Debbie sees this, hey Debbie, just wanted to let you know, I posted the link for this video to the clip of the audition where they misrepresented you, letting people know that footage was false, so hopefully people will come to this video and discover the truth for themselves about what really happened. So sorry for all of us who misjudged you, and the way you were treated not just by Louis, but by the whole filming industry, you had every right to be mad, shame on them! Kinda makes that part where Louis had water chucked on him a bit satisfying now, doesn't it, after knowing the truth xD
And by the way, I think you have a great voice, I'm not just saying that to be nice, I mean it, and I'm sure everyone else who says it means it too :)
Ty ♥️ very kind words I know Debi will appreciate reading this
First off debi you look amazing!! Secondly, I just love your channel @lady candic ♥
Thank you so much!
Girl file a lawsuit
LIVE LAUGH LOVE DEBBIE
OMG This is just awful to hear what Debi has been through. Love your videos. Would like to see one done about Ceri Rees.
There have been lots of Ceri Rees suggestions so I’m going to bump her up closer to the top of the list :)
Very interesting to hear. Honestly to me, Louis is properly disgusting. There is a video of him groping Mel B in an interview.
What?? Yikes!
@@LadyCandic yeah you can find it on UA-cam
heres what i think i dont think shes a great singer but respects to her for giving it a go and at least audtioning for the show now i do try and support people who have dreams but some times its hard not everyone can be cut out for being a singer but good on debi stevens she gave it a go what a legend
thank you for that video. I had an idea about her, now my impression changed completely... x factor was wrong about her and some few other contestants...
You’re very welcome and I definitely agree
@@LadyCandic x factor is a good thing but there are some mistakes that should be said. 1)Georges, he came at 17 years old, then 2 years later, to "clear his name" and he failed unfairly... the judges were savages, especially tulisa who often plays the boss, he failed whereas he was really trying, and this is psychologically not good. 2) descedance, they shouldn't have separated the mother and daughter... they were special together... 3) the icecream guy, it was just his culture, a seducer is not that bad, demi asked for humility without showing any of it herself, all the women judges were very vulgar... thank you, see you, Oumaya from Lebanon
Yes I agree, they were too quick to ridicule the contestants and tear them down rather than trying to see from their perspective and appreciate the effort. I believe the judges are told to be harsh in some cases although that does not make it okay. They should have been more compassionate but they are looking for high TV ratings unfortunately. Thanks so much for your comments, Oumaya! Hello to Lebanon from Pennsylvania :)
Debi is a fucking legend
💯
She looks so good! It's horrible what the show producers did to her, and ESPECIALLY horrible how Louis Walsh treated her (I always hated him). I'm glad she's doing okay now
Yes she does and AGREED!
I really think she had a nice voice.
As somebody who has met x factor producers i can confirm they are pushy and manipulative. Grace davis came to vlacknurn my hometown a few years ago and the x factor producers were filming fans afterwards they kept on badgering us to ssy things we didnt want to say and to be on camera and i instantly didnt like them they had a bad attitude and were really cocky. They laughed at people and took the piss and kept pishing people to be on camera who didnt want to. And were so in your face it was unreal.
I’m going to screen shot this because it perfectly explains what I’m trying to say. People always say “they signed up for this” but nobody signs up knowing about the massive manipulation tactics and pressure they put on people to do things they wouldn’t normally do or say
how do you find those guys after all these years ❤
Omg this is a good video how did ye do that and garnic can I be friends with Ur plz?
Can you please do one with Steven from Sheffield. As in Eminem.
Also, Robert Unwin.
I will add them to the list :)
I don't feel hostility toward her. I feel hostility toward Simon Cowell. He has destroyed way too many lives. 😔 He should get put in jail. He is a bully, so he gets the greedy green.
I loved Debbie’s audition. She came across as someone who didn’t take crap. Can tell the audition that was on TV was just a snippet of what had happened. Awful to hear what was said about her mum. Horrible the way contestants were treated. I regret watching the show now.
Soooo true
Too disturbing! Am speechless
Debi stevens is cool
Indeed
My ancestors almost named me Debbie 😢
The X Factor was really cruel. They toyed with peoples emotions to get a reaction, and then edited it to make the person look bad. Cruel and bullying behaviour
Exactly
I've been wanting to hear abou Debi's real experience for a while now. I personally always thought Debi singing was good.
Agreed I'm so happy she was able to share her experience
Yo this show low key needs to be exposed now 😂 it shouldn’t even be legal to use someone’s image like that without their consent because that’s basically what happened here. It ruins lives.
Exactly and tons of other people using her image in mockeries and remakes. It’s messed up
i didn't get it what did louies do to her?
He made derogatory remarks about her disabled mother
I did always wonder why was she so mad at Louie only?
Me too! Like why’d she focus on him? 😂
….. but it makes sense to me now I’m so glad to have heard her side of things
She's so nice 😭😭😭 why the Xfactor be doing these people so dirty.
Riiiight?
I personally think her audition was good she couldve found a spot in the x factor and gone farther in the competition what louis said was unnecessary that wasnt rubbish it pretty much the opposite it was good
After this series of celebrity big brother i’m SO glad Louis Walsh is finally being exposed and tonight’s episode of CBB reminded me of Debbi’s experience with this horrible goblin 😭
Debi actually told me about them being on big brother the other day, I’d love to watch it and make a video but I can’t figure out where I can watch it here in the states :(
Such a lovely woman. Im glad these reality talent shows have all but dried up. Terrible idea in the first place.
If they did it properly and didn’t try to exploit vulnerable people it would’ve been a great way for people to be discovered. But greed was always at the heart of it all unfortunately
I actually thought she had a good voice tbh
Oh wow. I won’t lie I honestly Debi was a right cow and couldn’t take criticism but after this I’ve changed my mind, I can’t believe Louis said that about her mother, very unprofessional on his part
She didnt even sang bad
Wow... the comment by Louis is disgusting...
Facts
I thought she was a decent singer just woth a bit more work
WTF??
