Louis Walsh's 'X Factor' acts have said their mentor was bluffing when he said that he wouldn't win the show this year.
Miss Frank star Shar Alexandra said: "Maybe he's saying that to surprise the public so everyone thinks he's not going to win and then there'll be a dramatic climax and one of us will."

"Look at JLS and what he did with them and they've got so big now," she said.
Fellow Miss Frank star Shaniece Davis said: "Even if he did say something like that, that would fuel the fire to make us want to come out on top."
Edward Grimes said: "You can't just say 'I'm going to win the show' because it puts a lot of pressure on you.
"You set your expectations so high that your expectations are higher than the actual act.
"The main thing about Louis is that he is a really loyal guy, he's a really nice guy and he'll always support you no matter what. He's there for all of us. I think he's a really good mentor."
