X Factor finalists Rachel Adedeji, Miss Frank, Rikki Loney and Kandy Rain won’t be heading out on the official XF tour this year. The acts had hoped that they would be allowed to perform at some of the venues, but this year’s lineup includes only Lucie Jones, Stacey Solomon, Joe McElderry, Lloyd Daniels, Jamie Archer, Olly Murs, Danyl Johnson and John and Edward Grimes.

The news seemed to come as a shock to Dannii Minogue who was sure that Rachel Adedeji would take part in some of the tour dates. She wrote on her Twitter page:

“I thought she was doing some of the dates like London?”

Tour bosses announced today that due to high demand for tickets from Jedward fans, they have added 16 new dates across the UK.
