X Factor: Celebrity viewers divided over Megan McKenna’s performance

Uptempo or slow it down?

Fans tuning into The X Factor: Celebrity tonight (Saturday November 16) have been left divided over Megan McKenna’s performance.

The former TOWIE star has been the runaway favourite week after week, performing beautiful self-penned songs and wowing both the public and the judges.

But as she took to the stage to sing another ballad she had written herself, fans were left torn.

While many insisted she was their winner, others felt it was a bit repetitive.

In fact, Nicole Scherzinger also agreed and said although the performance and vocals were stunning, she was hoping Megan would do something a bit more uptempo.

Simon Cowell told her the performance was “as good as week one”, but that he also wanted to see her more whacky side.

In response, Megan said: “I can do uptempo, but I love to sing songs from my heart and put everything into it.”

Fans at home were in two minds. Some thought it was just too similar to previous weeks.

However there were those that absolutely loved it.

They have continued to insist Megan is definitely the winner.

Elsewhere, fans accused Simon Cowell of ‘making it up as he goes along’ as he changed the format of the show.

The safe seats have been ditched after the show boss said the public didn’t like them.

And the star guest performer, Lizzo, took to the stage at the start of the show rather than halfway through.

They were also furious with the first ad break coming just SIX minutes in, with many hitting out at the format overall.
