Published: Sunday 21st Oct 2012 by Sam

The X Factor 2012 saw its 3rd set of eliminations tonight. Find out who’s heading home this week…

{An international phenomenon, local versions of the show show now air in the US, Italy, France and beyond. The brain-child of Simon Cowell, The X Factor is responsible for birthing the careers of Leona Lewis, Alexandra Burke, One Direction, Cher Lloyd and JLS.

Judging the hopefuls are Gary Barlow, Tulisa Contostavlos, original panelist Louis Walsh, and newcomer Nicole Scherzinger}.

After registering the lowest public vote of the contestants, MK1 and Kye Sones were two acts put on the chopping block.

The weekly sing-off proceeded with MK1 taking to the stage first, with Kye following.

In the end, it was Kye who were granted a pass onto next week’s show, after the judges became tied on who to save. The act’s fate was then reverted back to the public vote – which revealed MK1 to have the lowest support – ultimately sending them home.

The X Factor continues on ITV1 next Saturday.
