The X Factor's new life line vote has been axed from the results show, its been claimed.

This year's live shows saw a new results twist where the bottom three contestants from the main vote faced a new online poll on the X Factor app.

Viewers had 5 minutes to save one of the three with the remaining two going forward into the sing off.

But after five weeks, reports have now claimed it's been AXED.

According to the Daily Star newspaper, the results show this weekend will instead revert to a straight forward sing-off between the bottom two contestants from the main vote.

Over the past five weeks the life line vote has proved controversial with Ryan Lawrie escaping the danger zone three times.

Last week saw Sam Lavery win the latest and possibly final vote after appearing in the bottom three for the first time.

As yet, The X Factor has not confirmed the report but no doubt an announcement will be made in tonight's show at 8PM on ITV.

It the lifeline vote does go it could well impact the results of tomorrow's elimination.

Bookies had originally tipped Sam to leave ahead of Ryan and Saara, potentially on the basis of Ryan again winning the life line vote.

But without it he could well find himself in the sing-off for the first time this year.

Although of course we may get a complete shock in the bottom two as the competition heats up.

The X Factor 2016 airs LIVE on ITV tonight from 8PM with the performances.

Then on Sunday night at 8PM the latest results will see another act leave, as well as performances from Olly Murs and Nathan Sykes.

Ryan to finally end up in the bottom two?

About time

They only had the lifeline vote to pick those who went on the tour IMO. Now that doesn't matter, of course it was going to go.

He wasn't in the bottom two last week. I like him and think he is much better than the likes of honey-g who is just gimmicky and others whose names I can't even remember they made such an impact.

Oh good, bye Ryan.

I did like the idea of it, however I guess if its one guy v two girls or one girl v 2 guys.. It doesnt really work.

Not them trying to sabotage Ryan and Saara the 2 best solo singers

lets be honest though it is clearly to save someone who was close to B3 recently

If anything it's in Saara's advantage, I bet she was B3 in the 2nd week when Freddy got saved and last week when Sam did.

More chance for Saara to be safe now! she should be topping the vote but as long as she's safe I don't care, she just needs to come 3rd bottom at this rate which is very possible!

IMO it was to make sure Honey G made the tour. Joke acts always have to make the tour...

I agree! I see Ryan and Sam being bottom 2 this week. Saara would be doomed if it was b3
