One extra act will be added to the 'X Factor' live tour. While the remaining seven finalists, Anton Stephans, 4th Impact, Reggie 'N' Bollie, Louisa Johnson, Lauren Murray, Chè Chesterman and Mason Noise, are guaranteed a place on the tour, the judges will choose one more act from the ousted contestants to join them. Judges Simon Cowell, Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, Rita Ora and Nick Grimshaw, will have to decide between Bupsi, Alien Uncovered, Kiera Weathers, Seann Miley Moore, Max Stone and Monica Michael for the coveted final place. Max and Monica became the latest contestants to leave the competition when they...

Strictly Come Dancing may be the show with the dreaded 'couple's curse', but that doesn't stop X Factor finalists' partners from being worried.
Max Stone has revealed that his girlfriend Eleanor fears that female fans may take him away from her now that he's made the live shows.
The 27-year-old praised his partner of five years for helping turn his life around after years of smoking drugs and fist fights.
"This has been a really challenging experience. Being away is hard. Harder for her. She isn't sure what I'm doing, she doesn't know the plan," he told The Mirror.
"She is definitely worried I am going to change. I'm through to the live shows so it will put a lot of strain on us. We have talked through this in the last few weeks.
"We have had a lot of troubles and we have talked through the troubles and worries,...

Simon Cowell dramatically brought back an ousted 'X Factor' contestant at the last minute on Sunday's (18.10.15) show. The music mogul admitted he had made a mistake in ditching Max Stone after telling him he didn't think people would like him and offered him a seat at the very end of the episode. However, with his six chairs already filled, Simon had to ditch one of his other contestants and chose to send Hannah Marie Kilminster home. After the audience called for Max's reinstatement, Simon said: ''I think I've made a mistake and I've learned to listen to an audience...

After farmer Hannah Marie Kilminster belted out 'Somebody To Love' on last night's episode of The X Factor, Nick Grimshaw and Simon Cowell suggested starting a farm to produce singers.
We're so confused as to what we've been doing so far...
The X Factor 2015: Relive the best (and worst) of Sunday night's auditions
The X Factor has always had comparisons to factory lines, but maybe a farm is a better analogy - after all, at least some care and attention is given to help the contestants grow. Either way, last night's show certainly seemed to be pumping out the acts.
In just over an hour we were treated to 14 hopefuls. On the one hand, this is admirable - we were certainly getting a lot of bang for our buck, especially given that 12 made it through - but on the other, are we going to remember them all?...

It was an action-packed episode of The X Factor tonight as 14 acts were squeezed in to the show. And they were a varied bunch, too, with everything from dogs on stage to some very strange dancing... but what were the best bits?
1. Max Stone winning our hearts.
We could listen to his take on 'No Woman No Cry' over and over again. Can we, please?
2. An act backstage channelling Louis Walsh.
"You remind me of a young Diana Ross, actually," she told Sharon Rose. Hmm.
3. Joselito Peralta's endless dancing.
We don't quite know how Joselito made it through to the next round but perhaps the judges had simply been hypnotised by his fascinating and endless dancing. Our favourite bit? Olly throwing his coffee cup away in joy and relief when Joselito eventually started singing again.
4. Shaz Paz's incredible dancing.
Especially the bit where she mimed her rejection.
5. Erwin making things very awkward for Cheryl.

Tonight's episode of The X Factor was jam-packed, with 14 acts trying out for the judges - and 12 of them making it through, too. From some seriously questionable dancing to Anton bringing his dog on stage (amazing), it was all going on.
But some of the auditions were better than others, so read on to relive them, ranked from worst to best (although there was a lot of talent on show tonight)...
14. Shazpaz
Yes, even despite those mime moves.
Shaz Paz might want to hide away after hearing the feedback on her @Kiesza cover Nice dancing though #XFactor https://t.co/i4xqD6MRxr

13. Erwin
Cheryl Fernandez-Versini is never employing the dancer who choreographed this ever again. Ever.
12. Joselito Peralta
This hairdresser should have given his lengthy audition a bit of a snip.
11. Laura Johnston
A 'Natural Woman' with a natural voice.
10. Jordan Luke Gage
A singing manny.

Spotlight Pictures has acquired the worldwide rights to "The Beat Beneath My Feet," directed by John Williams (not the composer) and written and produced by Michael Müller. The film will premiere and compete at the Berlin Film Festival in the Generation 14plus category on February 11. "The Beat Beneath My Feet" follows a teenage loner in South London named Tom (Nicholas Galitzine), who dreams of becoming a rock star, but feels thwarted by his God-fearing single mother, Mary (Lisa Dillion). Things begin to change when disgraced guitarist Max Stone (Luke Perry), who faked his death eight years ago, moves into the flat below. Tom blackmails Max into teaching him rock guitar in exchange for not telling the authorities of his location. Tom must then learn what it takes to be a real rock star. "There are brilliant films at this year's Berlinale," said producer Fiona Gillies. "We are proud that 'The...
