Who left The X Factor last night?
Shan Ako and Bella Penfold were the two X Factor hopefuls to get the axe in the latest results show - with Shan's shock elimination sparking a "fix" row.
The 25-year-old singer was one of the favourites to win the competition, but landed in the bottom two alongside duo Acacia and Aaliyah.
Shan's mentor, Simon Cowell, and Louis Tomlinson voted to send schoolgirls Acacia and Aaliyah home, with Nile Rodgers - who covered for Group's mentor Robbie Williams for the third week in a row - voting to send home Shan.
Fans were outraged when Robbie's wife, Ayda Field, opted to send Shan home too - taking it to deadlock.

When is The X Factor final 2018?
It has been confirmed that The X Factor final 2018 will take place on Saturday, December 1.
This follows the new routine of the final being held on the first weekend of December instead of midway through the month, as was usually the case for the first 13 series.
The venue is yet to be confirmed but may be held once again at London's Excel Centre or it could return to Wembley.
The X Factor 2018 judges are Simon Cowell, Louis Tomlinson, Robbie Williams and his wife Ayda Field after Nicole Scherzinger and Sharon Osbourne were axed from the show and Louis Walsh left.
