Gary Barlow Threatens To Quit X Factor Over Judging Scam!
If you was watching last weeks X Factor you will know that Gary Barlow walked off after contestant Rylan Clark who cant sing beat Gary’s act Caroline Poole who can.
Now Gary has said that if it happens again he will walk off and that will be the end of his career on the show. There has been reports that there was whispering that judge Louis Walsh,was talking to the X Factor team discussing to put the vote to deadlock.
Louis really wanted Caroline in to the next show but Richard Holloway who is befriends with Simon Cowell and runs the show was spotted on the live show telling Walsh to vote in a certain way.
But when Garry walked off he demanded to have a chat about what to go on with the show.
An X Factor insider has said:
“Gary is fiercely proud of his reputation and signed up for the show because he wanted to nurture genuine talent. The reason he wanted to be on it was to put a stop to these tricks and to stop insulting the artists and viewers. The pantomime some of his fellow judges bring to the show drives him insane and he believes it undermines the credibility of the whole show. Sunday’s antics infuriated him. He was livid. He called a dinner for last night and issued an ultimatum — if this ever happens again he is off. No questions asked. Gary is demanding that genuine talent should always be recognised ahead of pantomime acts like Rylan who might pull in a few more phone votes for the novelty factor.”
But it was not just Gary that was not happy with the results as over 1000 people called in to a media watch group based in the UK, complaining about the way things were handled on Sunday’s X Factor episode!
And just like normal Richard Holloway claims that he never told Louis anything other than which order the judging was going to be in.
Nicole Scherzinger is NOT happy about the show too as she was caught slagging the shoo off on the phone in a queue at the air port.

Not every one of her singles has gone number one bit its looking like Kelly Clarkson is going to release a greatest hits album!
Kelly has really worked hard since winning American Idol as most winners of the show fade out but no not Clarkson.
Kelly has said on her official website:
It’s been a decade now since I won American Idol. Sometimes it feels longer because although it has been exciting that was a lot of pressure to have as a 19 year old girl. To own a company, lead an organization as a business woman, and be able to create music I’m proud of has been tough, but inspiring, for me. To celebrate the strength and longevity that my fans, friends, and family have supported me with I wrote this song “Catch my Breath” with one of my best friends that has seen me through everything. This song represents who I’ve been, what I’ve felt, and where I’m headed as not only an artist but as a 30 year old that is now smart enough to know that it’s time to stop, catch my breath, and be proud of not only what has been accomplished but of all the people that have helped me become the woman I am today. The song will be part of my first ever greatest hits (!!) coming in November. Thank you everyone that has been a part of my career and life. Here’s to another decade of passion and fun! I hope you like the song…its coming next week!
Kelly has had so many great hits so we can see this album flying off the shop shelves.
