Cheryl Tweedy has been forced to pull out of the X Factor boot camp stages as she continues to battle with a lethal strain of malaria.
X Factor boss Simon Cowell will now be down by two judges for the selection process as Dannii Minogue recovers from giving birth to baby boy Ethan last week.
Cheryl fans eager to see her perform at V Festival will also face further misery, as the star has been forced to cancel a string of live dates - including the festival in Chelmsford - over the next few months as she attempts to make a full recovery.
The good news is her condition is slowly improving after she spent three days in intensive care last week.
Cheryl is believed to have contracted the lethal illness on holiday in Tanzania with Derek Hough last month. Doctors initially thought she was suffering from exhaustion, but after a series of urgent tests, diagnosed her with the fatal disease.
Diana Vickers has said that she would love to perform on The X Factor as a musician in her own right.
The singer exited the contest in the semi-final in 2008 and told Bang Showbiz that she would relish a live return on the show.
Vickers said: "In terms of now, I'm not an X Factor contestant, I’m my own artist and I want to kind of be pulled away and be my own artist instead of being an ex-X Factor contestant.
"I just want to be known as Diana now. But I'd love to perform and go back. I get butterflies just thinking about it. To go back and be in a totally different position and not be judged - although I'd still think I was. I could help this year's hopefuls."
Speaking to the Daily Mail about her first ever performance in front of the judges, Vickers admitted to being transfixed by show boss Simon Cowell
"Ironically, I didn't even watch The X Factor," she continued, "partly because I have too much energy to sit at home watching telly on a Saturday night and partly because a tiny part of me was jealous that the contestants were doing what I wanted so desperately to do."
CORRIE character Kirk Sutherland was among the hopefuls at the last night of the X Factor auditions.

But although actor Andy Whyment was in character at the Manchester auditions, show bosses remained tight-lipped about his appearance - insisting it was for a stunt and NOT for a storyline.
But the real story of the night was judge Cheryl Cole's ill health.

With the Girls Aloud lass in hospital with malaria, one dance troupe gave their own tribute.
They wore costumes based on the star's Fight For This Love outfit with the words Get Well Soon Cheryl across their T-shirts.

And guest host, Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger, standing in for new mum Dannii Minogue, said: "I'm so sad I haven't been able to be here with Cheryl.
"I hope we can get together some time when she is better."

POP group Scouting For Girls have revealed they've been approached by the producers of Emmerdale to join the show.
Roy Stride, Greg Churchouse and Peter Ellard are such huge fans of the farming soap they've already played an acoustic set in the Woolpack for a local radio station.
But now they're crossing their fingers that they'll actually get to be on the ITV1 show.
"The best idea so far is that our tour bus breaks down as it's passing through the village," say the lads.
"Our all-time favourite character is Seth - and we all loved it when that plane crashed and wiped out half the cast."

JORDAN says she's desperate to join the X Factor - and judging from her huge trout pout she would fit right in with the plastic surgery fans on the panel.
The glamour girl, real name Katie Price, was snapped with over-inflated lips which could rival Leslie Ash's after her infamous botched procedure as she left the Radio 1 studios this morning.
But the mum-of-three, who regularly gets Botox, appeared to be proud of her freaky, plumped-up smackers and drew attention to them by wearing bright red lippy.
Since jetting back form her honeymoon with Alex Reid in Thailand earlier this week, Katie, 32, has declared that she is the person to save the X Factor.
With a malaria-stricken Cheryl Cole absent until later this year there is an available slot on the panel - although Katie has admitted to not being able to sing well.
She told a newspaper: "I think everyone wants to be a judge on that show. Simon (Cowell) knows where I am.
"I'm honest but some people will say, 'Why's she's doing it? What's she got to do with it? Blah, blah'. But I've still got ears and can still hear things and can see looks."
She added: "I've had my fair share, 13 years in the industry. My whole job is about looks and what other people look like - I still have a fair opinion."
And looking at Katie today, she clearly has similar opinions on cosmetic surgery as some of the other X Factor judges.
Louis Walsh, 57, went under the knife last year to get rid of his eye bags, while Simon Cowell, 50, is a Botox fan and has had his teeth whitened.
New mum Dannii Minogue, 38, has also had Botox in the past, as well as a boob job and a nose job and Cheryl Cole has veneers on her teeth.

:eek: I hope we never see her sitting there as a judge
STAND-IN X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger could have some competition - in newly-formed Husstle.
The foursome are aiming to become the first girlband to win the show - then want to rival the Pussycat Dolls in the charts.
They could come face-to-face with Nicole who is filling in for malaria-hit Cheryl Cole, at the Boot Camp stage.
Husstle are already popular online - with 1,300 fans joining their Facebook group.
They say on the website: "Hope the world is ready for it! Husstle mania beckons!"
The band - Carol Mounsey, 29, Stacey Camps, 26, Jessica Kozi, 25, and Alannah Maggs, 18 - formed only in January after meeting at a performing arts centre in Bradford, where Britain's Got Talent winner George Sampson also honed his dance skills.
Stacey is an X Factor veteran after getting through to the judges' houses stage in 2006.
She competed against Leona Lewis at Simon Cowell's mansion in Miami.
Carol, who put the band together, said: "We are like the Pussycat Dolls, but we also write our own music.
"I'd describe our music as funky pop, quite commercial, with a strong element of street dance. I think the X Factor needs a girlband to win."
The girls don't lack confidence, with their Facebook group titled Husstle ... The Only Girlband You'll Be Talking About in 2010.
They have worked with top producers behind artists such as Alesha Dixon and Sugababes.
Girl groups have famously done badly in The X Factor, with none ever reaching the final three acts.
Last year X-rated band Kandy Rain were the first to leave the live shows, while the other female group Miss Frank made their exit just two weeks later.
