Tonight the X Factor 2012 Top 6 will become the Top 4 as two more acts are sent packing based mostly on America’s votes. The act with the lowest votes will head home right away while the two acts the send and third least amount of votes will go head to head in a sing-off. The judges will then vote on who stays and who goes.

Also tonight, X Factor Season 1 winner Melanie Amaro returns to the stage to perform. Ke$ha is also set to perform during the one-hour results show.

So which of the Top 6 — Emblem 3, Fifth Harmony, Diamond White, Carly Rose Sonenclar, Tate Stevens, and CeCe Frey — will come out on top and which two will go home? We’ll know later tonight, but that won’t stop us from speculating now.

Based only on our poll from last night, you guys are confident that Carly and Tate will be 100 percent safe. The person most at risk of going home based on the poll is actually Emblem 3 with CeCe, Diamond and Fifth Harmony close behind. Since those four so close, it’s hard to say. But just based on the past and my own expertise, I’ll say that CeCe goes home with the least amount of votes while Diamond and Fifth Harmony sing off for the chance to stay. I think Fifth Harmony will be safe, despite this poll.

What do you think will happen tonight? Be sure to check back for the live results and later for the full recap of The X Factor 2012 results show.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who noticed on Wednesday night’s episode of X Factor 2012 that most of the acts were freaking out because they had to just get on the stage and sing? They were freaking out that one of the themes was unplugged! They’re in a singing contest! So why are they all using those horrible production numbers as a crutch? I just don’t get it.

OK, on to the recap. As usual, I review each performance and assign the letter grade I think each deserved. Each act performed two songs this week.

ROUND ONE: Unplugged songs

CeCe Frey, Edge of Glory

Well, it was nice to hear her just sing but I can’t really give her or Demi the credit on that since it was this week’s theme. That being said it was still just OK. She’s just not a singer worth $5 million but who really is these days? Whatever, I give up on music. C

Emblem 3, Just THe Way You Are.

Yikes. This was so not good. There was no harmony. There were ridiculous pitch efforts. The song is a lame one (sorry Bruno fans). I’m just going to stop now before I get really mean. D-

Carly Rose Sonenclar, As Long As You Love Me

Well that’s not a good song in my opinion, but I’m pretty sure I’m an alien who doesn’t related to modern music. Aside from the song choice, Carly sounded great. We all know she can sing and doesn’t hide behind the production, so this was just another day for Carly. A
