'X Factor' hopefuls to face live audience

Scottish hopefuls for this year’s ‘X Factor’ will be made to audition again after producers made a late decision to hold initial tests in front of a live audience.

The wannabe pop stars had already performed for the judges – Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh, Dannii Minogue and Cheryl Cole – two weeks ago but it has since been decided auditions will take place in front of a live audience for the latest series of the reality show.
