The X Factor will return to ITV later this year for what will be its fifteenth series.

Rak-Su won last year’s competition, becoming the first boy band ever to do so.

Their winner’s duet Dimelo, with Wyclef Jean and Naughty Boy, debuted at No.2 in the Official Charts and has since been certified silver in the UK.

During the week of release, the four-piece had five songs in the Top Ten on iTunes simultaneously, including the No.1 spot.

The group was also the first ever The X Factor act to have had three No.1 singles on iTunes while being on the show, including original tracks Mona Lisa and I’m Feeling You.
