That is what I have been thinking, she can't continue with that style for the rest of the competition

Storm Lee and Diva Fever have become the next two acts to be eliminated from The X Factor.

Lee was the first act to leave after Dermot O'Leary revealed that the aspiring rockstar had received the least public votes in a bottom three that also included Belle Amie and Diva Fever.

After the result, Lee commented: "You know, I just want everyone out there who's ever believed in something to never, ever give up because you haven't seen the best of me yet, let me tell you."

Simon Cowell's groups then took part in a final sing-off, which saw Diva Fever cover Gloria Gaynor's 'I Will Survive' and Belle Amie perform a tearful rendition of Fergie's 'Big Girls Don't Cry'.

After the showdown, Louis Walsh cast the first vote to send Diva Fever home, arguing that Belle Amie "can grow and get better throughout the show".

Dannii Minogue and Cheryl Cole also cast their votes for Diva Fever, giving them the three votes needed to send them home.

"We have had the time of our lives," Diva Fever member Craig Saggers stated after the vote. "This is just mad being on the X Factor. [We] just want to say thank you to Simon for putting us back on the live show, we still feel we can really sing."

His bandmate Josef Al-Smadi added: "We were serious about [the show] and we really wanted to win it, but wanted to smile and have fun and I think we did that."

After half-jokingly blaming their elimination on Cowell's choice of song in yesterday's show, their mentor came on stage and announced: "I accept full responsibility. I let you down and I am sorry."

Cowell now has just two acts remaining in the competition, while Cheryl Cole has become the only mentor to still have all of their acts.

I felt for Belleamaire tonight. Neither acts deserved to be in the sing off, but like previous years the bands always go first, voters don't like girl bands. I think Cheryl's luck will run out next week.

Sorry but I just don't get Aiden, I thought he was terrible.

[Perdita]

I have always liked Aiden in the previous performances but it was plain to see how uncomfortable and nervous he was last weekend. Still going for Mary to win, another brilliant performance from her.

Mary, Matt and Rebbeca are the best this year... Belle amis irriates me.. really sorry to see Diva Fever go.. .

'X Factor' Matt 'furious over Katie lies'

X Factor's Matt Cardle has reportedly accused fellow finalist Katie Waissel of making up lies, after a newspaper claimed that they had been found in bed together.

The News of the World claimed that that the pair were caught by members of the security team when a kissing game went too far. However, according to The Sun, Matt was furious when he read the report.

He apparently yelled at her: "Stop stitching me up. Stop making stuff up. I could never sleep with you."

The pair are said to have only shared a bed in his room to watch a DVD.

"What do you think you're doing? We were only watching TV - now it looks like we're an item," he told the 24-year-old.

"I've just come out of a relationship and I'm not about to get into another right now. Especially not with you. You're not my type.

"Stop making this stuff up. You've humiliated me and you won't have done yourself any favours."

A source at the ITV show added: "Getting close to Matt can make her look popular. Everyone loves him. But you can't go around making stuff up."

They claimed that Katie spent the rest of the day in tears, ignored by the other finalists.

"She's had tears down her cheeks, going on about how she's a really bad person. She's not a bad person, she's just desperate to win. Everyone does stupid things now and again."


Matt is just stunning. If he doesn't win I'm throwing a fooking brick at the telly

Katie seems like a media whore she would do anything for her name in the papers
