More Lily Allen
Lily Allen has joined the debate surrounding the controversial dismissal of a contestant on The X Factor.
Laura White, 21, became the fifth act to be voted off the reality TV show last Saturday after she failed to secure enough votes from the judges.
The decision to dismiss White, a favourite to win the show, has proved unpopular with fans and was even raised by MPs in the House of Commons yesterday (November 10th).
Writing about the show on her blog, Allen said: “Right, I think we were all a little shocked right? Laura didn't deserve to go in my opinion, neither did Ruth (my personal favourite).
"I've been left feeling quite upset by the whole of tonight's show."
She added: “I can not believe that week after weak, Daniel the pool man is still in, people are quite man, I'm sure.”
Culture Secretary, Andy Burnham, said that White's exit was “very harsh”, calling her a "wonderful and talented" singer.
12,000 people have signed a petition calling for White to be reinstated on the show.
