Mel B accuses Flueur East

It's the second week of The X Factor and already cheating accusations have been thrown across the judging table.

After Fleur East's Eighties Week performance of Monie Love's It's A Shame, Mel B said she couldn't hear Simon Cowell's act singing during the chorus of the song.

'That was a great performance, the only thing is on that chorus I didn't hear your voice pop against the backing track so I found that a little bit like cheating,' the Northern judge complained.

'That's not cheating that's being unfair,' Simon cut in and the two went back and forth on the subject until Cheryl Fernandez-Versini interjected.

'Honestly for me you are fast becomig one of my favourites in the competition. you know exactly what you want to be. You smashed it,' she said.

'You're turning into an artist ,' Simon said about Fleur.
