Frankie Cocozza axed from 'The X Factor'

Frankie Cocozza has been kicked out of The X Factor.



The controversial singer was asked to exit the ITV singing competition after breaking a "golden rule", according to reports.

Cocozza, who has become notorious for his hard-partying lifestyle, is believed to have been asked to leave the X Factor house this morning.

"Frankie is devastated but he has broken a golden rule so producers had no option but to axe him," a source told The Sun. "He had an extra boost from being kept in at the weekend when he thought he was going to go.

"But now his dream is officially over and he only has himself to blame."

Cocozza is currently at the centre of two Ofcom investigations, amid accusations that he swore on-screen and that his on-screen antics have glamorised the misuse of alcohol.
