Viewers were able to hear their songs up for offer on tonight’s show, where the guest stars were revealed to a stadium audience at London’s Excel Arena.

Kevin Davy White performed with Tokio Myers and reprised Fast Love - which he originally sang during George Michael week - with the Britain's Got Talent singer.

Unfortunately, despite the song being received well and his performance praised by BGT winner Tokio, it wasn't enough to save Kevin, and he was sent home before the final performance.

Grace Davies performed original song Roots with Paloma Faith.

The song was what Grace performed in her first ever audition - and left the judges in tears before putting her through.

Rak-Su teamed up with Naughty Boy and Perfect Gentleman star Wyclef Jean for their own song, Dimelo.

Creating the song during their time in the house, Wyclef insisted he needed to "jump on a plane" to join them for the performance on Saturday's show.
