The X Factor series 10 - LIVE Show Weekend 1

















DAYS LEFT FOR 2ND X FACTOR LIVE SHOW: Only 5 days to go!

DAYS LEFT FOR 2ND X FACTOR LIVE RESULTS' SHOW: Only 6 days to go!


After weeks of searching and selecting, the first LIVE show weekend had finally come!

Saturday-night, it was all-about the performances whilst Sunday-night, it was all-about the results!

The 12 acts that made it through to the LIVE shows had taken-up their toughest-challenge as they performed hit songs' from the 80's, as it was 80's Night!

Not just that, they were also performing for YOUR vote to remain in the race for that £1 million recording contract.

There was a twist in-store on Saturday-night with the Flash Vote, which meant that 1 act was definitely going to have perform in the sing-off on Sunday-night.

After the 10-minute vote had closed, it was time to reveal of the Flash Vote, which revealed which category was safe on the night.

The first category avoiding the bottom-two was..........the GIRLS!

The second category also avoiding the bottom-two was..........the GROUPS!

The third category also avoiding the bottom-two was..........the BOYS!

The result meant that the first act who would be facing the sing-off was in the OVER 25s category and the act who had received the fewest of public votes was..........SHELLEY SMITH.

The lines had re-opened afterwards but they closed on Sunday-night's results' show.



After performances from Ellie Goulding and Cher, it was time to reveal those all-important results which decided whom had made it through to Weekend 2.

There were 10 places up-for-grabs from the public vote, with the final 11th-place to be decided by the judges in the Final Showdown.

The first-act who made it through to Weekend 2 was..........KINGSLAND ROAD!

The second-act through to Weekend 2 was..........ABI!

The third-act who also made it through to Weekend 2 was..........SAM CALLAHAN!

The fourth-act through to Weekend 2 was..........SAM BAILEY!

The fifth-act who akso made it through to Weekend 2 was..........MISS DYNAMIX!

The sixth-act making it through to Weekend 2 was.........HANNAH!

The seventh-act also making it through to Weekend 2 was..........NICHOLAS!

The eighth-act who also made it through was..........TAMERA!

That also meant that all 3 of Nicole's acts were safely through and they perform again on Weekend 2!

Back to the results, there were only 2 places from the public vote left.

The ninth-place for Weekend 2 went to..........ROUGH COPY!

This meant that all 3 of Gary's acts' also made it through to Weekend 2!

Only 1 more place from the public vote was remaining and that place went to..........LUKE!

So all 10 places from the public vote were decided and all 3 of Louis' acts had made it through to Weekend 2!

This also meant that Lorna Simpson was also in the bottom-two, alongside Shelley Smith and it was a sing-off between 2 acts in the Over 25s category.

With Shelley performing first and Lorna performing last in the sing-off, it was decision-time for the judges.

Sharon was up-first and with no-hesitation, she abstained from voting.

So with Sharon deciding not to vote, the decision was going to be made between Louis, Gary and Nicole.

Louis was first-up to decide and he decided to send home..........LORNA.

Gary was next to decide and after some-time, he decided to send home..........SHELLEY.

Last-up with Nicole and it was the casting-vote as well and she decided to send home..........LORNA.

That resulted in Shelley Smith securing the final 11th-place for Weekend 2 and it ended Lorna's X Factor journey.
