The X Factor: Celebrity line-up – meet the full cast of famous contestants
Martin Bashir, Megan McKenna and former Love Island stars are among those to compete
The X Factor is back, but this time with a twist: all the contestants are celebrities.
Spin-off show The X Factor: Celebrity, launching on Saturday 12 October, will see a roster of famous faces competing to impress judges Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger and Louis Walsh.
From soap stars and influencers to reality TV favourites and sporting heroes, 14 acts will be taking to the stage.
The show is being touted as a “brand-new take on the nation’s most talked about music talent show” – even though The X Factor: Battle of the Stars, which essentially had the same format, aired in 2006.
Dermot O’Leary will be hosting proceedings, and you can meet all the celebrity contestants below…
