View Full Version : Shock Factor

X FACTOR chiefs are planning a sensational twist to Saturday’s show — and could axe TWO acts.

Judge Simon Cowell yesterday revealed there will be a “shock twist” — and TV Biz has learned it will be one of four scenarios.

The first would see two hopefuls dumped at the end of the show, instead of the usual one.

Plan B allows an already ditched act to return. It could be rejects 4Sure or The Unconventionals, or even someone axed in the boot camp rounds.

Producers are also weighing up a third option — letting guest judge, crooner Tony Bennett, 80, decide who goes. Alternatively, the last ten acts would be completely at the mercy of the public vote. An insider said: “They have no idea what is going to happen.

“But that’s the point — we don't want anyone getting too comfortable.

“We want to give viewers some extra excitement.”

Saturday's X Factor is a big band-themed show, in Bennett’s honour.

A double eviction could spell trouble for Dionne Mitchell and The MacDonald Brothers, who are bookies’ favourites for the boot. Long-haired rocker Ben Mills is still favourite to win this year's competition.

Why would he keep Ray..?

I really don't like twists, because it ruined Big Brother and I'll bet it ruins the X Factor.

Proably just trying to hype the show and it will end up being something minor lol.

I did read a rumour saying two would go and then each judge would pick someone from their top 8 who didn't make it and the public would vote one through.

If two went and one was voted back it would be the same...

If its people being voted from the auditions I guess that could be fun.

I'd like to see Carlo or Stacey be in 16-24s
and Tiwa in 25+
