We love it!

The Band Aid 30 single, a slightly altered version of Do They Know It’s Christmas? was unveiled on tonight’s X Factor results show.

Featuring stars such as Ed Sheeran, One Direction, Ellie Goulding and Bono, the UK government has said that VAT will not have to be paid on the single.

Some of the lyrics have been changed to reflect the Ebola crisis.

 

Bob Geldof appeared on the results show tonight to unveil the recording for the first time and said that the new recording is a little bit of “pop history”.

In other X Factor news, Jay James and Stevi Ritchie sang for survival tonight.

Simon and Louis voted for Jay while Mel and Cheryl opted to save Stevi. This meant it went to public vote where it was left to Dermot to announce that Stevi would be staying for another week.
