Both Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh have only two acts remaining, whilst Simon Cowell retains all his acts after tonight’s double eviction “twist”.
Dionne initially polled the lowest number of votes from the public, meaning she was automatically removed from the competition. This left a sing-off between Ashley and Kerry, with Louis having the casting vote.
Whilst some might have expected Louis to vote tactically, particularly with the ribbing he has been receiving from Simon, he was extremely fair, and explained that he felt Kerry had ‘peaked’, whilst Ashley still had more to offer. As such, he had no option but to send Kerry home.

I think after Louis voting off Maria over the Conway sisters last year he knew he had to behave this time! lol

the reason Dionne did not get the public votes is that all the text to the x. factor over the past three weeks have not been counted up until after the show, even at midnight on saturday, thank you for texting x factor was received and accepted then, there is some thing wrong with this years voting and the counting of the votes it is an insult to the public to take their money this way and a discredit to the contestant.
