A doctor was called by worried show staff and advised Chris not to go on stage – but he went ahead anyway
Woozy X Factor finalist Chris Maloney defied doctor’s orders not to perform at the weekend – after being struck down by a virus.
The bug was so bad, the 34-year-old was sick seconds before he went on stage – but it didn’t stop the controversial contestant getting through to next week’s live final.
A doctor was called by worried show staff and advised Chris not to go on stage – but he went ahead to deliver his below-par performance of a Michael Buble song. He was sick again when he came off stage.
Despite the average display, Chris will still star in the series finale alongside James Arthur and Jahmene Douglas after boy band Union J were voted off last night.
Over one million viewers voted in the semi-final, which prompted boos from a stunned studio audience as Scouser Chris sailed through despite weeks of criticism from the show’s panel.
But what the fans didn’t know was that the wannabe star had been violently ill before performing the day before.
A source said: “Chris was very ill but is a real trouper and went ahead. He didn’t want anything to get in the way of making the final. The doctor ruled out food poisoning – it might be the winter vomiting bug. He was in a really bad way.”
