Anyone who tuned into the “X-Factor” last night will be waking up today and asking themselves if the show is rigged.  The sh*t hit the fan in last night’s show when judge, Gary Barlow and fellow judge Tulisa Contostavlos opted to send performing act, Rylan home. However, Nicole Scherzinger backed her own act Rylan, leaving Louis with the deciding vote.

WAS LOUIS BEING TOLD TO TAKE THE ROUND TO A DEADLOCK BY TV BOSSES, YOU DECIDE?

What happened next would leave even the placid person in the world sceptical as judge, Walsh who had the casting vote said: “I’m going to go with Carolynne.” But as the poor girl celebrated, Walsh changed his mind, shouting: “I want to take it to deadlock.” This was a few seconds after an X-Factor boss climbed onto the stage and had a word in Louis’s ear which obviously made him change his mind and take it to a deadlock. “Fix” the audience shouted and it’s now certainly starting to look that way. And all this happened on Simon Cowell’s birthday as the guy turned 53. Many happy returns Simon as we are sure something like this would not have happened on your watch!.
