The Ties Planet team's eyes were wide open last night as the first live show of this year's X Factor competition took place. As usual we were keen to see which smart chaps (or indeed chapesses) wore ties.
It was a Robbie Williams influenced night with Olly Murs and John & Edward making it into our good books. 25 year old singer Murs wore a square-end skinny tie for his performance of She's The One.
Controversial duo John & Edward pleased us also (or at least one of them did) by sporting a fetching skinny tie for their version of Rock DJ. Will they survive tonight's first public vote though?
Host Dermot O'Leary as usual looked smart in fitted suit and skinny tie... and to top off an excellent evening's viewing, the star of the show, Simon Cowell wore a sharp wide black silk tie.

Britain's Got Talent Tie Watch - The Final
Diversity shocked the nation this evening as they won ITV talent contest Britain's Got Talent. Bookies' favourite Susan Boyle and saxophonist Julian Smith were beaten into second and third place respectively.
We were anxious to see if Simon Cowell would finally (pun intended) wear a tie on the show. Unfortunately he didn't. Never mind... plenty other people did wear ties for the show. In fact it was very much a black tie event.
Hosts Ant and Dec, judge Piers Morgan and contestants Flawless and John of 2 Grand all wore black ties as the Queen found out who would be performing for her at this year's Royal Variety Show.
Each member of Flawless wore a black bow tie as part of their snazzy ensemble. 2 Grand's John followed suit (again pun intended) as he went for a traditional look as he sang with granddaughter. Piers Morgan went for a regular width black satin tie as hosts Ant and Dec both wore slim black ties.
Young singer Shaheen Jafargholi completed the show's tie wearing as he sported a plain blue skinny tie to match his blue shirt.
A great series completed with some great tie wearing. We like it!

Britain's Got Talent Tie Watch - Semi Final 5
It was a dramatic last semi final this evening on Britain's Got Talent as we were once again on tie watch. Aidan Davis and Hollie Steele earned places in tomorrow night's live final.
We were delighted to see Ant and Dec and Piers Morgan complete a full set of tie-wearing semi finals. This time Ant chose a black patterned skinny tie whilst fellow host Dec went for a plain black narrow tie. Judge Morgan wore a lovely red narrow tie.
Also pleasing was contestant Martin Matcham's decision to wear a plain black tie for his performance. The guitarist looked very smart as he strummed away to Robert Palmer's 'Addicted to Love'.
The big question we have ahead of the final is... Will Simon Cowell wear a tie?

Britain's Got Talent Tie Watch - Semi Final 3
Shaheen Jafargholi disappointed us despite booking himself a place in Saturday's final of Britain's Got Talent in tonight's third semi final.
The 12-year-old singer's performance was magnificent, but what left the Ties Planet team slightly let down was his decision to not wear a tie for his second appearance on the show. When Shaheen wowed Simon Cowell and co. at his audition, the youngster wore a lovely black satin tie. We fully expected Shaheen to again wear a tie on tonight's show, but unfortunately we were wrong.
Never mind, he may well buck his ideas up on Saturday evening.
Ant and Dec and Piers Morgan wore ties for the third consecutive show. This time Ant opted for rusty brown, Dec striped and Morgan plain navy blue.

Grey Is The Way
Grey is the way to a woman's heart, reports Maria Groce in today's Daily Record. Celebrities like Simon Cowell, Jose Mourinho and George Clooney are living proof that the mature looks of a silver fox are preferred by women.And apparently it is no coincidence. Dr Kerri McPherson, health psychologist at Glasgow Caledonian University, said there are inbuilt evolutionary mechanisms that lead us to make judgments on attractiveness on a non-conscious level.
Women of child-bearing age apparently opt for men eight to 10 years older than themselves rather than those of the same or younger age, as they think older men will be better providers for a family. And that's apparently why we can find those grey-haired guys irresistible.
Full story here.
If you're planning to ditch the hair dye and go grey, you'll need a grey or silver tie to match and complete the sophisticated look. Our current favourite is the Plain Silver-Grey Satin Tie... and priced at just £5.99 it is probably cheaper than the hair dye!

Louis' and Sean's Ties are Same Difference on X-Factor
Same Difference may not be a favourite of Louis Walsh on X-Factor, but one thing they do agree on is the wearing of a smart black tie.
On tonight's show Walsh, 55 wore a regular width black silk tie with black shirt, whilst Sean Smith, 21 of brother/sister act, Same Difference wore a skinny black tie as part of his fashionable look. The duo performed their version of Scissor Sisters' hit 'I Don't Feel Like Dancin''
Host Dermot O' Leary completed the tie-wearing on tonight's show with a slim tie of his own.
