The X Factor 2017’s final three Overs in the live shows have been confirmed.
Tonight was the second half of judges’ houses as Nicole Scherzinger picked her finalists for the live shows.
A total of six acts performed for Nicole in South Africa where she was joined by Mobo award-winning, BRIT nominated and man of the moment, grime artist, Stormzy.
But for three it was bad news as Talia Dean, Slavko and Berget Lewis were all sent home by Nicole.
For three other acts it was the best news ever.
Nicole said yes to Kevin Davy White, Matt Linnen and Tracy Leanne Jefford who are now all in the live shows of The X Factor 2017.

Kevin Davy White

First audition song: Man’s World – James Brown
Kevin said: “I’m doing the competition in my own way, my own style. Everyone is unique and I am always trying to be the best version of myself… Music for me doesn’t have any borders. The soul is the beginning of the music, so that’s where I start whether I’m doing something with soul, rock or funk. ”

First audition song: Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow – Amy Winehouse
TracyLeanne said: “There hasn’t been a tough part for me, I’ve enjoyed every moment of it. Six Chair was a little bit challenging for me because I had to sing a few songs, but I give it my all and I’m here today. I enjoy every minute of the show because I am living my dream.”
