Noel Gallagher Has His Say Over X Factor

Noel Gallagher has described this year's X Factor bands as "f**king appalling".

The former Oasis star said that the groups - who will be mentored by N-Dubz singer Tulisa Contostavlos - are the worst category of the series.

Gallagher told Digital Spy: "I watched this series for the first time this weekend. I'm usually quite good at picking who is going to go through, and I think I managed to pick them all correctly this time.

"The groups are f**king appalling; they really are f**king dreadful!"

The singer-songwriter continued: "The over 50s or 25s category are f**king sh**te too. It's only a TV show, though, and the whole thing is more like a soap opera with all their back stories and that carry-on.

"The live shows are when it's at its best and it's great Saturday night TV, especially when you've got an 11-year-old daughter. That show is her life!"
