Lauren Murray exited the X Factor last night and as always with the reality show, the results segment was the subject of much debate on Twitter.
Although a few were obsessing over her eyelashes, others were of the opinion that there was yet another fix at play.
It’s blatantly clear @TheXFactor is fixed for Louisa to win #fixfactor

Before Lauren had to take on the sing-off challenge alongside Che, she found out that Louisa, also under Rita Ora’s wing had made it through ahead of her.
More than a few fans are of the opinion that she mouthed “It’s Louisa” before Louisa’s name was even called, leading viewers to believe that she had some prior knowledge of what was about to go down.
As Metro points out, it could just be the fact that people wanted Lauren to make it to the final and now that she didn’t, it’s seen as a fix.
Am a seeing things or did Lauren just lip read “Louisa” there and now she’s through.. PUA FIX — Roxanne Hunter (@rocky_hunter24) December 6, 2015

This year’s X Factor has been dogged by fix rumours, from way back at the start when people believed Louisa’s change of shoes was a cause for concern to this Simon Cowell moment.
