The X Factor live shows are back on our screens tonight.
Last weekend, Dermot O'Leary announced that 4 contestants will be eliminated this weekend - two tonight and two on Sunday.
However, ITV have now released a statement saying only two will be cut this weekend.
An ITV source has said “We have some great talent on the show this year. Simon [Cowell] thinks it’s unfair to cut the numbers so drastically when contestants are doing so well.”
“Talent this year is exceptional and with less weeks of live shows producers want to give them more time to shine and more time for the audiences pick their favourites.”
“This weekend’s show will feature one act leaving on Saturday and one act leaving on Sunday,”
