The Saturdays have claimed that 'The X Factor' doesn't allow groups enough time to "gel and blend".
According to the Daily Mail, Rochelle Wiseman said: "A lot of those bands are put together just to go on the show."
"But you need to gel and blend - and that's not something you can do over a ten-week show."
"It's a shame that a lot of people think that to be famous you have to go on 'The X Factor'."
