Dannii Minogue has accused Simon Cowell of ‘blowing it’ during the final rounds of this year’s X Factor. Minogue mentored the girls this year and said Cowell showed a "frightful" side to his music taste when he voted to keep Jedward on the show above her act Lucie Jones. Simon’s decision meant the judge’s decision was ‘deadlocked’ and Jones went on to lose the resulting public vote. "I was shocked. I think it showed a frightful side to his personal music taste, Dannii told Heat magazine. "He wimped out by not choosing Lucie as he had just said how amazing she was after her performance and that he he didn't know what to do about the twins. I guess that was his chance to make this competition real - and in my opinion, he blew it! Next year, we need five judges and a fifth category, adding Novelty Act, which maybe Simon could mentor!"
