Mason Noise leaves X Factor in shock heartbreak week elimination
The controversial contestant has been voted out of the competition after a flash vote during Saturday night's live show
And then there were six. The X Factor said goodbye to another of its finalists tonight during a shock elimination.
Mason Noise left the competition after a flash vote during Saturday night's live show, leaving judge Nick Grimshaw with just one contestant in his category.
"I've loved it. Thank you to everyone who voted, and thank you to everyone who didn't as well," Mason said to host Caroline Flack after finding out his fate.
"I'm going to go and do my thing now," he added, saying: "I'm ready to go and meet my fans."
"I'm gutted," said his mentor Nick Grimshaw, calling him a visionary music artist. "He's exactly the kind of pop star that there should be. I'm not worried about the future for Mason at all."

If you weren't expecting to see one of the finalists heading home this evening, you're not alone. The voting lines were open for just 10 minutes after all the acts had performed during tonight's show.
