Rumored X Factor UK finalists list leaked, another twist
Quote:
A RUMOURED list of the 12 contestants going to the live shows on this year's X Factor has hit the web.
To see the rumoured 12 finalists, scroll through the gallery to the right.
Meanwhile it has been revealed one additional act will make it through to the live rounds of X factor after the judges choose their three finalists this weekend.
The four judges – Louis, Gary, Tulisa and Nicole – were all told earlier this week to choose one more wildcard act, one of whom will win a place in the first live show thanks to a public vote.
The four wild card acts will be unveiled at the end of Sunday night’s show, with phone lines opening after the show and staying open until midday the following Saturday.
A source told The Sun: “We like to add new twists to the show every year and this time the public get to choose an act to be added to the competition. With the standard so high this year, the judges had a tough time choosing their three.
“This gives another amazing act the chance to perform on the X Factor stage”, the source added.
The shakeup is an attempt to claw back some of the 2m viewers the show has lost so far this series.
Last year contestant Amelia Lily returned as a wildcard after Frankie Cocozza was forced to leave the competition.
what the ****? they let lucy spraggan through and not ella? lucy can't sing, she writes cutesy comedic guitar songs but she has NO chance of winning
Right. I thought she was done when she flopped without her guitar at bootcamp. Oh well, watching her attempt something like disco week or big ballads will be fun to watch.
