Take That have reportedly pulled out of their appearance on this Saturday's X Factor final.

The band apparently refused to perform after discovering that recently reformed boyband Boyzone would also be present.

A source told The Sun: "Take That are huge fans of X Factor, especially Gary Barlow. He feels a real affinity with the show and loves encouraging new talent. When they heard Boyzone were on the bill they decided not to do it. It’s really upset the schedule."

Beyoncé, Seal and Duffy will also be performing with the finalists.

EDIT!

Take That have denied pulling out of an appearance on this Saturday's X Factor final, insisting that they were never scheduled to perform.

Earlier reports suggested that the group had refused to appear after discovering that recently reformed boyband Boyzone would also be present.

However, a spokesperson for Take That said that the band was "never confirmed" and "never scheduled" to appear.

The representative told Gigwise that the group will be in Europe this weekend as part of a pre-arranged promotional tour.

An X Factor spokesperson commented: "There is no truth to the reports today, we would absolutely love to have Take That back on the show, but we have always been aware that the band have other commitments in Italy that night so have never been available to perform in the final."

Immature or what? They're a man band not a boy band, they need to remember that.

[Tom]

Boyzone will only be there because Louis probably got them on discount or something

I highly doubt they pulled out because of Boyzone,it was probably a very logical explanation.

From Heatworld

When we read in’t papers this morning that Take That had apparently pulled out of The X Factor final because they were furious that their “old rivals” Boyzone were performing, we were a little sceptical. After all, Take That are such nice boys – can Mark Owen even do fury?! – and Boyzone weren’t really big until Take That had gone their separate ways, so we’ve never thought of them as rivals. Anyway, we thought we’d check out the rumour and it turns out our hunch was right – according to an X Factor spokeswoman, TT were never booked to appear. “They are in Italy booked for a gig anyway so they were never an option to perform,” she said. As much as we’d like to see TT, they have been on the show already. Unlike Boyzone, Beyonce, Seal and Duffy, who have all reportedly been lined up to sing with the finalists. Who would you like to see them dueting with?
