THIS is why The X Factor is my favorite television talent show.  Each season I am immediately drawn in by big voices, amazing stories and outstanding talent.  And I know that I am not alone.  Last night, WBKR's American Idol expert Steve Thompson made a Facebook post about "the 54-year-old mom singing gospel" and claimed he too has already been sucked in to Season 3 of The X Factor.  And

If you are a regular visitor to WBKR.com, you know that I am HUGE fan of the TV talent show The X Factor.  There are many reasons why, but the primary reason is the $5 million dollar grand prize, the biggest of an talent show on television.  I also think that grand prize means more at stake, more on the line, and more talent on display.  Take, for instance, Carly Rose Sonenclar.  This girl is just
