Stacy Francis Reacts to Ousting, Labels Astro Behavior "Ungracious, Obnoxious"

by at .

Stacy Francis got in a few parting shots after her elimination from The X Factor last night, and it was difficult to blame the contestant for any of them.

The aspiring singer was given the boot even after 14-year old Astro whined about being a member of the final two and sulked his way through a rendition of "Never Say Goodbye." Simon Cowell berated the young singer, but still voted for Stacy to leave.

  • Astro and Steve Jones

"I feel like I had a disadvantage by not being in his category," Francis told reporters after the episode aired, predicting that someone from Simon's group would win and saying the judge "beat up everyone in the competition last night except his category."

As for Astro's initial refusal to even sing for the panel's votes? Stacy referred to this attitude as "obnoxious" and added:

"Astro's 14 and you can call him a teenager and give him an excuse, but bad behavior is bad behavior. He was ungracious in that moment... I'm very very honored and I'm grateful for coming this far. I wanted to go all the way and I didn't, so it's time for me to reevaluate my life and see what happens from here. I think it'll be okay."

Do you think the judges made the right decision? Did the right top 10 member go home?

    I agree with most that Astro's attitude was horrible and he should have been sent home. He needs to learn now that if his behavior is not corrected he will be sitting behind bars like many others that can't control their temper.

    I feel Astro apologize and that should be it. Do I feel he could have handled it diffrently, of course. But, realize he's 15, arogant and a kid. Sometimes we as adults could give kids a break and this is one of those times. Astro will learn through the years or he will ruin is career. Stacey Frances should have been voted off and by her being 40+ her attitude was just as bad. Should Astro have been in the bottom 2? No. Should he win? No. Astro is atleast on of the top 4 or 5. Unfortunately people vote and they don't really know tallent. Leroy (might be misspelled and Stacey should be in the bottom 2.

    The show is called the X-factor which Simon says is about a person who has the whole package: talent and likeability. Although I think Astro lacks talent, some people think he has some. But he is not likeable. As such, he does not possess the X-factor. Compare him to Rachel Crow. This girl is talented galore and is so extremely likeable. She has the x-factor.

    I hope the public will not be fooled by all of the "Public Relations" people who will be hired by the show and LA Reid to do "damage control" and now portray Astro in a sympathetic light. He will shed a few tears, make a public apology, ask for pity because of his upbringing. We must not fall for this baloney. The kid is a punk who should not be rewarded for his disrespectful attitude.
