X Factor judge Louis Walsh has claimed that Stacey Solomon may struggle on this weekend’s final shows because she isn’t as talented as Leona Lewis.

Whilst Louis admitted that Stacey is very likeable and that her mentor Dannii Minogue has done a fantastic job with her, he expressed doubts about whether she has that star quality that Simon Cowell likes.

Louis told The Mirror:

“She’s the only girl, there’s nothing not to like, but she’s not as good as Leona. I love her personality and I think Dannii has done an absolutely brilliant job with her. She’s very genuine backstage and is exactly what you see onstage.

Also, the twins told me she’s the nicest person out of everyone on the show. She’s consistently good, but is she a star? I don’t know if she is.”
