"X Factor" United Kingdom - Mel B Slams Louis Walsh & Simon Cowell: Huge Celebrity Storm Brews

The X Factor is one of the most popular shows in the United Kingdom, but despite it closing in on the final, it appears the drama is already here. In the space of a few days, judge Mel B has angered Simon Cowell by slamming Louis Walsh for one of his decisions. On top of that, comedian Lee Nelson, who is known for silly pranks, breached security and ran on to the stage to perform alongside popular boy band Stereo Kicks, causing mayhem for the show as they push towards the final. How will the show handle all of its pre-final chaos?

Mel B was angry that her act was banished from the show, and she hit out at her fellow judge, saying, "Paul won the sing-off hands down. I said to Louis, 'I am so angry at you, come on, don't wimp out.' He told me to shut up. I won't tell you what I said after that." She added, "He will be sorely missed if he's not on that tour. It would be a monstrosity."

Nelson was in no mood to end the drama he caused. He tweeted, "There are so many of them I thought anyone could have a go. Really hope the boys keep me on #LeeNelsonForStereoKicks. Stereo Kicks were top lads. Still think they'd be better off with 9. I'd vote for them but Cowell's got my phone."

The X Factor wants the buzz to be about the contestants, and although there's some buzz there, there's much more about the drama that X Factor wants to avoid. Who will win the show this year?
