X Factor - Same Difference think Rhyd will win

10 December 2007 - Brother-sister cheesy pop duo Same Difference think Rhydian Roberts will be crowned X Factor champion.

They told Now Online that peroxide blonde Rhyd is the "front runner".

Sarah Smith, who makes up Same Difference with her sibling Sean, told the magazine that they and the other contestants are all certain Rhydian will take first place in the competition.

"He's very humble and says he won't be, but all we feel that he will. So we're all fighting for second place," she explained.

The latest episode of X Factor saw Sarah and Sean perform a cheese-tastic rendition of Chain Reaction as well as S Club's Never Had a Dream Come True.

And to calm their nerves before going onstage, Sarah revealed that the pair have a little ritual they rely on.

"In High School Musical, there's a little thing that the brother and sister do and we do it before we go on stage," she said, admitting that it involved waving their hands and uttering "brrrrr".

Same Difference will be up against Rhyd and fellow under-25 male Leon Jackson in the final, following Niki Evans' departure in the semi-final.

She was booted out after singing Songbird and One Moment in Time.
