X Factor’s Rak-Su go head-to-head and fail to keep a straight face during No Laugh Challenge
The foursome - who are in the final of this year's series - clearly have a competitive edge ( and a good sense of humour) as they struggle to keep a straight face during their exclusive challenge with us

X FACTOR'S Rak-Su showed off their competitive side to The Sun Online and stormed off - after they failed miserably in our No Laugh Challenge.
Splitting the Watford foursome into two teams, it was Ashley and Mustafa versus Myles and Jamaal as they went head-to-head with a string of cheesy dad jokes.
It didn’t take long for Myles to start getting irked at his team-mate, after he couldn’t stop giggling at the silly jokes being made by Ashley – sometimes before the punchline was even revealed.
Ashley later reckoned the opposite team had an unfair advantage – because his bandmates weren’t intelligent enough to understand the jokes.
However, they weren’t as silly as they seemed, and later as Ashley cracked up Jamaal revealed that he knew that his own laughter was putting the opposite team off.
“I’m just going to keep laughing,” he laughed. “Coz I know it’s going to make you laugh!”
However, the true champion was revealed to be Mustafa, who managed to overcome a case of the giggles in order to remain stony faced without the entire challenge.
Knowing he was fighting a losing battle, Myles later threw in the towel and stormed off – with Ashley following shortly after.
It appears their competitive natures are going to come in handy this weekend – as they go head-to-head with Grace Davies in the final showdown on Sunday night.
After performing their own songs Mamacita and Dimelo on Saturday night, the group were put through to the final round.
That means they are also in the running to release the winner’s single – which this year will be the duet they performed during the live finale.
Rak-Su are joined by Naughty Boy and Wyclef Jean to perform original song Dimelo on The X Factor 2017 final
Bringing onto the stage Perfect Gentleman singer Wyclef Jean and their hometown friend Naughty Boy, the group performed Dimelo – a song they wrote while in the X Factor house.
Following the finale this weekend, The X Factor hopefuls will be heading out on tour from February next year - with a Sun Online voted wildcard joining them.
Rak-Su, Grace Davies, Kevin Davy White, Lloyd Macey, The Cutkelvins and Matt Linnen will be serenading the UK in stadiums - but who do you want to see join them?
