DAYS LEFT FOR 1ST X FACTOR LIVE RESULTS' SHOW: Only 2 days to go!


From the auditions to bootcamp and the judges' houses, the LIVE shows are almost here!

With Simon Cowell having called all 4 judges' revealing the categories they would mentor, they had to whittle it down to 3 acts each but with a twist, a wildcard act!

So with Gary having to look-after the Over 28's, Louis being given the Groups category, Nicole being awarded the Boys category and Tulisa being given the Girls category, they had the difficult task of selecting their final acts for the LIVE shows in the Judges' Houses round.

Tomorrow-night, Dermot will be back with all the action from the 1st X Factor LIVE show, as the final 12 acts perform for YOUR votes and a chance for that £1 million recording contract, whilst Caroline and Olly have all the backstage action from the show!
