Simon Cowell is still very confident that one of his acts will win this years X Factor, despite the fact that 2 of his acts have already been voted out.

He has also surprised fans by claiming that he was not a victim of tactical voting by Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh.

He said: “If anyone was going to be complaining it should be me but I’m not complaining. I was disappointed at 4Tune because they didn’t deserve to go but everyone forgets it’s the public who put the acts in the bottom two.”
