Frankie Cocozza will be waving goodbye to the X Factor for good after his clubbing antics led him astray more than usual.
Frankie told the X Factor: “I’d like to apologise to Gary, my fellow contestants and everyone who has voted for me, but, as of today, I will no longer be in The X Factor.
“My life during the show has gone out of control and my behaviour off stage has over-stepped the rules of the competition. I no longer deserve my place in the show, so I am therefore leaving. I would like to thank everyone who has supported me.”
An X Factor spokesperson has also given this statement: “Frankie is leaving the show today after breaking competition rules. He is going to take some time out before continuing his career as a singer. We wish him all the best for his future.”
An annoucement regarding Saturday’s show is expected tomorrow.
Keep it central!




do you no he is 18 he is having a laugh we have all done worse in our lives i feel sorry for frankie and gary i think you should all think if it was your sons being comented on how would you like it good luck frankie at least people will get off your back now all the best x
We may have done worse in our lives but not in front of millions of children and teenagers. It glamourised excessive drinking, promiscuity and now by the sounds of it drug taking. Good riddance but I hope he does sort himself out.
right from the start people said he could not sing and he was a bit to cocky..i think johnny should be given another chance now that he has been kicked out
bring johnny back he should never have gone the whole country loved him
he shouldn’t of getting onto the live shows in the first place, he couldn’t sing and was way too cocky,glad to see him finally booted out bring back the risk or johnny
BRING BACK JOHNNY . He should never of gone it should of been frankie.
what a opportunity he had and has just thrown it away
just read on twitter to bring back the risk i think they should
The Risk did get the lowest number of votes from the public tho. But had it not been a double elimination, Johnny might not have been in the bottom two. I guess having seen the sleazebag booted off, it would be good to see Johnny get the reward for being such a nice bloke. He should be allowed to sink or swim without the manipulation that goes on by judges to bring about protest votes. THAT was the reason Louis was so OTT last week and it worked a treat because Frankie stayed in. Now that Ofcom are awarming all over it, the tune has changed and Frankie is history
If it’s a toss up between the Risk and Johnny, I’ll take Johnny. The double elimination was just a PR stunt anyway, so bring him back.
I liked the suggestion that Johnny could front a new Generation game. He is most definitely in the Larry, rather than Bruce camp, but I can see it working.
It would be good for Johnny Robinson or the risk or Sophie Habbibas to return to the x factor
Frankie was sticking two fingers up to other 18 year olds who haven’t a hope of getting a job never mind a career in the music industry. He couldn’t be arsed with it so he needed to go. If there is any fairness and if the public vote actually means anything at all, Johnny should be brought back.
i enjoyed every min. of the x factor and dont regret a thing, i didnt take charlie its meow meow, which is LEGAL thanks for all your votes and support, i cannot say anymore at present as my legal team are working on this, all i can say is i was pushed not walked, and i was told last friday that this was going to happen before the allegations of my weekend bender happened cheers f c

checked this out the above comment is from frankie, thats why louie said what he said he already knew he was going, but his votes were too big
sorry but that cant be from the real frankie i dont belive a word. he should have never got that far in the show.as he could not sing,only silly teens were voting for him.grow up its real singers we want.
From France, I watch X Factor and to be honest Frankie shouldn’t have gone as far as he has!! He’s gone and that’s good but please Frankie sort yourself out.
As far as Johny is concerned yes he is a very nice bloke but please let’s get back to what the show is all about SINGING and honestly Johny you haven’t got what he takes in addition to this and I know that it may sound dreadful but appearance is also important and again I am sorry Frankie but you haven’t got what he takes. Good luck nevertheless for the future. You would perfect for a Panto show!!
Bring back the risk they deserve a second chance
