Pop Idol's Michelle and Susanne not on speaking terms

Pop Idol contestants Michelle McManus and Susanne Manning are said to have fallen out.

It's reported their arguments have caused friction in the Pop Idol house.

The Daily Mirrorsays Susanne feels the Glasgow girl is a big threat to her winning the ITV1 competition and refuses to be pictured next to her.

Roxanne Cooper, who was eliminated on Saturday night, confirmed the pair are not getting on. "Michelle and Susanne don't get on that well. It's difficult living in the house all together," she said.

The paper quotes an insider saying: "Susanne is beginning to rub people up the wrong way. She acts al innocent and clueless on the show but she's playing a very clever game."
