It’s the X Factor question we’re all eager to hear the answer to… which judge has been given which category.
Simon Cowell, Ayda Field, Robbie Williams and Louis Tomlinson are expected to mentor one group of singers each – traditionally the Girls, Boys, Groups and Overs. Once served their category a judge must then whittle down it into six acts in the dreaded Six Chair Challenge. Then these six will then be mentored at Judges’ Houses before yet more singers are chopped ahead of the live shows.
