UK X-Factor: James Arthur does he have AS?

Post Reply New Topic

I might be totally off here, but this guy avoids eye contact with the judges, constantly looking down, looks really uncomfortable with his body language etc. and apparently had a panic attack after one performance. He has a fabulous voice however! I hope he wins.

I've read that Jahmene might have AS (which surprised me, because he looks very sweet and humble but no obvious signs) but not about James Arthur. Perhaps he's just shy, and I did read that he has low confidence, but has anyone got any thoughts about whether he might have AS (which of course he could do but still not even be aware of what AS even is)?

No, he's just a lousy actor.

erm...he's a singer.

Then he's a lousy singer, too.

I thought he was just acting like a singer ... my bad.

I think he has a fab voice, and is a refreshing change for the X-Factor. He seems humble and unaware how good he is which makes him all the more appealing.

Not sure about James Arthur but it did cross my mind about Jahmene- something about how he always seems nervous although he could just be shy! I like the way that both of them are very different from usual X factor contestants though.
