Simon Cowell’s pop at Cheryl and Dannii
Vocal skills aside, Kandy Rain were best known for being former pole dancers, unafraid to flash their flesh. However, they lasted just one week in the live finals. “These girls were never going to like you,” Simon Cowell said pointing at Danni Minogue and Cheryl Cole, adding, “You two have performed in the past practically half-naked.” “Would you give them a record deal?” Cheryl asked Simon. “I’d give them a shot,” Simon said. “I bet you would,” Cheryl retaliated. Oh snap! While the judges bickered, poor Kandy Rain shuffled awkwardly on stage wearing next to nothing.
Cheryl Cole’s wardrobe malfunction
During Cheryl’s comments on Joe McElderry’s performance of Don’t Stop Believing, Simon interrupted her. “Cheryl. You’ve got to sit up,” Cowell said to the bemused Girls Aloud star.“You’ll see why.” Meanwhile Cheryl’s top – which we can only describe as two carefully positioned dustbin lids – swung in the breeze!
Cheryl Cole nails Fight For This Love
Following days of ‘will she/won’t she mime’ media speculation, Cheryl Cole gave the performance of a lifetime for her debut solo turn. Finally, proving herself deserving of a place on the X Factor judging panel and a bona fide pop princess.
Robbie Williams’ door trouble

The Spinal Tap-esque sliding doors that stuck firm until Robbie eventually had to force them open to make it on stage. Talk about fighting to get back into the spotlight.
