X Factor bands in blazing row

X FACTOR staff had to step in after a blazing row between rival bands Futureproof and Hope got out of hand.

Production workers were called in as the girlband and boyband clashed at the finalists’ luxury pad in North London.

Tensions are rising among the 12 acts ahead of Saturday’s first live show.

The two bands – both mentored by Simon Cowell – are feeling the pressure of being in the same category.

A source said: “It’s fair to say that there are other acts the two groups feel closer to on the show.

“The boys know that Simon is especially keen to form a new Spice Girls – so that’s where the rivalry formed.

“But a row just got a bit out of hand the other night and one of the producers was called to the house to sort things out. Talk about Pop Stars: The Rivals!” Both groups were formed from X Factor wannabes who failed to make the grade as soloists.

Louis Walsh and Simon told them to go and form groups among themselves, then return and reaudition.

The two bands were quickly installed as favourites to win by bookies.

But TV Biz has told how Hope have already been bickering among themselves. An insider said: “There have been a lot of catfights.”

And the girlband has had more trouble – as singer Sisi Jghalef, 22, was booted out after a week.

Show bosses found out she had failed to finish a community service order after being convicted of assaulting a McDonald’s worker – and feared she could be arrested on the show.

Last year’s winner Leona Lewis will be the first guest on Saturday night, singing her new single Bleeding Love.

They've used quotes that have already been used in previous stories and tried to make them look bad "Simon wants to make the new Spice Girls", "Sisi left" (which is irrelevant - she left before they arrived at the X Factor house )

And notice how they don't mention what the 'fight' was over, who it was between, when it happened, and how.
