The X Factor's first Six Chair Challenge is over and Rita Ora has whittled a very talented 14 girls down to six.
Chloe Paige, Havva Rebke, Kiera Weathers, Lauren Murray, Louisa Johnson and Monica Michael are all heading to judges' houses - but what did Twitter think of Ora's decisions?
Firstly, there were a lot of people who thought the Six Chair Challenge was a bit mean:

I wouldn't give her a chair if she was pregnant And elderly. #xfactor
— Public Benjamin (@PublicBenjamin) October 4, 2015
The audience was the nastiest part of that. Brutal. #XFactor

The six chair challenge. Gratuitous cruelty. Funny though. #xfactor

There were some who are willing to adopt the Six Chair Challenge into their daily lives:
new approach to getting a seat on the train?...

The X Factor tension reached a fever pitch on Sunday (November 30) as the final five became the final four.
After guest performances from Union J, Ella Henderson and Queen + Adam Lambert, Stereo Kicks were sent home at the end of a sing-off with Lauren Platt.
Stereo Kicks' elimination garnered a lot of buzz on Twitter, so Digital Spy rounded up the reaction to the night's events, as they unfolded!
1. Queen performed on the X Factor stage. Was Adam Lambert a worthy replacement for the late Freddie Mercury?

You say Britain. We say Talent. Britain. Talent! Britain. Talent! You get the idea.
That catchy ditty from the unforgettable (ahem) DJ Talent can only mean one thing. The Britain's Got Talent Live Shows are upon us.
It might not be as exciting as The X Factor, but what else are you going to do on a miserable Bank Holiday Monday?
Expect tearful children, tearful Amanda Holden and a truly mixed bag of contestants who will help reformulate the dictionary definition of the word 'talent'.
Our live blog kicks off at 7.30pm. Join us then when all the action kicks off on ITV.
21:59Anyway, I'll be back again tomorrow for more singing, more dancing and possibly even more ad breaks. If that's possible!
21:59I now feel awful because Jon was a really gracious loser and dedicated his win to his brother. I feel a little bit mean. This...

Michael Hogan - The Daily Telegraph

Emma Daly- Radio Times
