Newsflash! Contrary to our earlier, rather exciting, report, Rihanna will no longer be performing at the final X Factor this weekend. The pop star was due to perform her hit single Umbrella with JLS but now the broken hearted boys will have to make do with Westlife instead.
And although Westlife, who are managed by JLS mentor Louis Walsh, have many a hit single under their belts, we think the X Factor hopefuls were rather looking forward to dueting with and impressing a gorgeous Rihanna.
Westlife were due to perform with X Factor favourite Alexandra (keep up!), but she's gone one better and bagged Beyonce instead! Beyonce had been rumoured for weeks to perform on the final and now we can reveal that it's finally official. We promise!
Eoghan will continue to take to the stage with Boyzone, as originally planned.
Now, after all of that confusion, we do hope that the X Factor won't hold any other surprises in store or sudden changes of plans. We'll be glued to our screens come this Saturday just to make sure...
