X Factor News Update: Has Katie really, finally, truly lost her marbles?

Katie, singing. Not going mad.

"Word has it that after a series of panic attacks following the terrible of ordeal of having to sing for her survival last Sunday night, Katie's been spluttering hysterically into her pillow, and wouldn't even get out of bed earlier in the week."

Waissel is struggling and this time it could be the real deal, says Eliot Pollak, in his weekly round up of the X Factor headlines

So much a-hyping and a-tooting in the newspapers this week - it's tough to know where to start. Yes yes - there was a devastating performance in Europe on Tuesday night from the best left sided player in Europe. But that's enough about Benfica's Fabio Coentrao - there's some real news out there too. And that is boys and girls, that Prince - yes, Prince - will be playing X Factor finals night. Amazing stuff, even more so if he actually turns up.

Back to those with less talent - Katie is FREAKING OUT. Word has it that after a series of panic attacks following the terrible of ordeal of having to sing for her survival last Sunday night, she's been spluttering hysterically into her pillow, and wouldn't even get out of bed earlier in the week. Possible post-X Factor career working for TFL one suspects. If you don't live in London, that joke is pretty redundant. Apologies.

Fear not though kids. Katie will presumably turn up on Saturday to sing another song, before boldly declaring for the nth time that "finally, that was the REAL ME".

In addition to what has been a busy week for the Waissel, she has also reportedly buried the hatchet with the Hat Matt man. Perhaps hoping some of his [3.7] favouritism magic rubs off on her - by contrast, she is [4.5] to be out on Sunday night.

Matt himself has attracted a few wagging fingers this week, after it transpired that some of his peers like to hang out with cocaine in their pockets. He was also photographed by the Sun smoking a large cigarette that may or may not have had pot in it. These two incidents may be related, and could represent possible future problems ahead.

Elsewhere, (Craig) Belle Amie have performed a massive U-turn by blaming their exit on Simon Cowell, and will definitely continue as a band.... for about a week. Great - keep us updated.

And finally, Cher Lloyd and Cheryl are reportedly "at loggerheads" because Cher wants to change her name to Cher-L, so that no one confuses her with the electro-voiced singing monster who wears body-tights and used to be one part of Sonny and Cher. Cheryl's beef with this is that it sounds a bit like her name, and the pop industry is only big enough for one Cheryl. Which will presumably come as an almighty wake-up call for Cheryl Baker. Altogether now - "Before you decide that the times arrived... for making your mind up."
