'X Factor' hopeful Brucknell dyed hair to avoid bullying

'X Factor' hopeful Kitty Brucknell claims she was forced to dye her hair blonde after being bullied for her ginger locks.

The 26-year-old wannabe - who sailed through to the Boot Camp stage of the ITV1 show after being given four yes votes by judges Gary Barlow, Louis Walsh, Tulisa Contostavlos and Kelly Rowland - claims she was picked on throughout her teens for her red hair and it ruined any confidence she had.
