X Factor bosses have denied claims that Amelia Lily's return was fixed after it was reported online an hour before the result was officially announced. Stv, which broadcasts ITV programmes in Scotland, published an article on its website at 8.06pm reporting that Lily had won the public vote to return over James Michael, Jonjo Kerr and 2 Shoes. It said: "Amelia Lily is back in The X Factor after winning the public vote tonight. As Dermot O'Leary read out her name, mentor Kelly Rowland jumped to her feet screaming as Amelia Lily looked stunned. "Now's the time for Amelia to prove that she really does have The X Factor and can take on the remaining acts in the competition as she goes on to deliver a performance of, appropriately, 'The Show Must Go On'."

Amelia Lily has been voted back into The X Factor by the public. The 17-year-old was chosen to return over James Michael, Jonjo Kerr and 2 Shoes in tonight's show. Host Dermot O'Leary revealed that she received 48% of the vote. All four were axed by their respective mentors Kelly Rowland, Gary Barlow, Louis Walsh and Tulisa Contostavlos in the first week of the live stages, but were given a reprieve following Frankie Cocozza's ejection on Tuesday (November 8). When asked by O'Leary how it felt to be back in The X Factor, Lily replied: "Oh God, I've been so emotional backstage, I cannot believe I'm back in. Thank you everybody for believing in me."

The X Factor has been thrown into further chaos after tonight's show was delayed by technical difficulties. Viewers were kept waiting for 15 minutes as they tuned in to see the final six perform a 'Lady GaGa vs Queen' tribute and discover who out of Amelia Lily, James Michael, Jonjo Kerr and 2 Shoes would be returning. Instead, ITV screened a montage of some of the series's more notable auditions, including the debut performances of finalists Janet Devlin, Sami Brookes and Johnny Robinson, controversially-axed contestant Jade Richards and Goldie Cheung, who quit after being granted a spot in the final 16 by Louis Walsh.

There's only one thing you can guarantee in week one of The X Factor Live Shows and that's an utterly nondescript theme. The Final 16 tackled songs from the 'UK & Us' songbook, which basically meant anything goes apart from Abba and Kylie Minogue. We had the 'NeXt Generation' (that capital X is vital) of judges making their debut and all of them left their mark on show one. Gary Barlow, who dressed in tweed on Saturday night and as a Downton Abbey butler on Sunday, may have been dressing to get into character as he shot down poor 2 Shoes ("It was like karaoke night in Romford") and soldier Jonjo Kerr ("You stuck out like a sore thumb").
