X Factor hopefuls rehearse for tomorrow night’s spooky live performance following THOSE new fix claims
The show was thrown into a new fakery row last weekend
X FACTOR hopefuls have been putting in the finishing touches for their big live performance tomorrow night.
Honey G, Five After Minute and Four of Diamonds were all snapped giving it all they got as they rehearsed for Fright Night.
Judge Louis Walsh and choreographer Brian Friedman were all on hand to give the acts some much needed advice, as they get ready to go head to head.
But the big event tomorrow has already been hit by controversy, after more claims the show is a fix.
They came after the song selector landed on Fright Night, just in time for Halloween.
According to X Factor bosses, the spooky theme was selected at random by the mechanical juke box which determined the song theme for the upcoming show during Sunday’s brutal elimination.
Commenting on it, Nicole told The Sun: “I genuinely think that it’s not fixed because I know every week I can’t pick my songs until we know what [theme] we’re doing – and the producers aren’t picking anything as well.”
She added: “I think it’s perfect. I think it’s meant to be. It’s fricking Fright Night.
“No one wants Fright Night around Christmas time or Thanksgiving.”
But viewers aren’t happy, one tweeted: “@TheXFactor haha yeah right what luck it lands on fright night for Halloween and we r 2believe that’s luck.”

Another added: “Defo a ‘coincidence’ when the wheel falls on fright night to be the theme on Halloween weekend.”
A third tweeter posted: “#XFactor too obvious Halloween weekend and theme is , that’s right fright night #fixfactor.”
Sun Bets confirmed that the Halloween-themed song week was the 2/1 favourite to be chosen for next week’s show before Sunday’s episode.
Other themes that could have been chosen included Louis Loves, Disco, Eighties, Boy band vs girl band and Movies.
An X Factor source told The Sun before Sunday’s episode: “Fright Night could come up at any time during the live shows and so it’ll feature as and when it appears.
“There is no contingency plan and it could even appear the week before Christmas.”
