The X Factor’s pre recorded shows ended tonight and we finally found out which singers have made the final 12 and who was sent home at judges houses.

The series has been building up to this point for almost two months and we have been treated to some great performances and some woeful singing, but finally, the judges have picked the best of the best and revealed which singers we can expect to watch weekend after weekend until December of this year.

The live shows kick off next week and each judge was allowed to pick three acts each to take to the finals.

The singers going through are:

GIRLS

Ella Henderson
Jade Ellis
Lucy Spraggan

GROUPS:

GMD3
MK1
Union J

BOYS:
James Arthur
Jahmene Douglas
Rylan Clark

OVERS:
Kye Sones
Carolynne Poole
Melanie Masson

Don’t forget that on top of these 12, the judges will also be choosing one wildcard for the live shows. Find out more information on that twist here.

    I think Gary has got a bit of a game plan the way he has selected 3 while eliminating his best one knowing that the public will vote him back in.

      I agree w/ most of your list except Melanie and Kye. I LOVE those two. I want all the overs in the final! :-D

    Jahmene and Ella – definately for me the final two.
    There are some fabulous voices amongst the other contestants, but J and E for me have it all!
    I do wish all of them though very happy futures.
    P.S. I would like to see Christopher win the ‘Wild Card’ – anyway we shall see!
    Thank you.

    Can’t believe Ryan got through instead of Adam. It is farcical .
    Christopher is the best singer of all. What was Gary thinking about. Just hope he gets thro the wildcards. It would be dreadful if he didn’t. Do the judges just think they are performing for young viewers. If so they have got it wrong! I’m over 70 and a keen fan of the programme !
