Teenager Lauren Platt is out of next week’s X Factor final leaving the Andrea Faustini, Fleur East and Ben Haenow to prepare for the most important weekend of the competition.

X Factor bosses are concerned that contestant Andrea Faustini will not be fit to perform on this weekend’s show after he locked himself into a hotel room for 12 hours.

Call centre worker Stevi Ritchie was voted off X Factor tonight, leaving only five acts remaining.
