Dermot returns with the results of the fourth public vote of the series. Bon Jovi performs live on stage with the X Factor finalists. Jamiroquai and Rihanna then both perform live on stage. Dermot then reveals that Bele Amie and Katie are in the bottom two and that they will have to perform again in the final showdown. The judges then are unable to make a decision and it goes to deadlock. Dermot then reveals that Belle Amie are the act going home as they have the least amount of public votes.
Each X Factor judge is in charge of a different section of singers on the show. The judges do not know what section of the competition they will be in charge of until the audition process has finished. Each judge then has to pick four acts to take forward to the live section of the show. Each week the two acts with the lowest amount of public votes have to sing again in a final showdown after which the judges decide who should be eliminated. Once there are only five acts left remaining it becomes left to the public to decide who should go.
