XFactor Winner Clouded In Fix Claims After Tweet Shows Her ‘Winner Single’ On Friday Night

This year’s X-Factor may have stayed in the headlines, but for all the wrong reasons. Between claims of a ‘fix’ at judges’ houses, to technical issues and Olly Murs’ infamous blunder, most people probably won’t be surprised by claims that bosses ensured the teenager was destined to win the show. The latest cloud over the reality series comes from the singer accidentally posting a promo tweet for her new single… two days before she’d actually won. The tweet, which was screengrabbed by HelloU before being deleted, was originally posted on Friday, December 11th at 11.36pm. The tweet, from Louisa’s official account, announced her details as the winner’s single: While it’s being claimed the mistake could be a scheduling error, audience members believe the error just further proves the process has become scripted from the audition stages. Former XFactor star Steve Brookstein also weighed in on the argument, tweeting:

Haha want anymore proof it was set up for louisa? #XFactorFinal

how long before Captain Cowell confirms that he won't be able to do next year's X factor because of other commitments? #JumpShip — Steve Brookstein (@stevebrookstein) December 13, 2015

Bosses of the ITV show have yet to comment on the claims.
