Take That have been forced to pre-record their appearance for Saturday's X Factor because they had already signed to sing on another show.
The group recorded their performance of new single 'Greatest Day' in advance to allow them to appear on another ITV programme in Manchester.
X Factor bosses will inform viewers that the performance is not live in order to avoid possible criticism.
"Originally the idea was to insert the pre-recorded performance into X Factor and make it seem like it was live," a source told The Sun.
"But with all the TV fakery and voting scandals, the producers decided it’s best to come clean."
JLS will perform 'Back For Good' on the Take That-themed week, while Rachel Hylton will cover 'Rule The World'.
