    Not X Factor news, but it will be referenced tomorrow I imagine.

    Louis' going to find the show hard tomorrow. I think the rest of the panel'll go easy on him.

    RIP Stephen. :(

    It doesn't look like there are any details, and if Louis only heard after recording X Factor then the NOTW have got the story pretty quickly, so more details will prob come about later probably.

    Such sad news :(

    Wonder if Louis will even be on the show tomorrow?

    Seems very sudden as well. Wasn't he at the Pride of Britain Awards on Monday?

    EDIT: Just read the article and he was there.

    I'm absolutely shocked. I thought I was seeing things when I saw the title of this thread. He's not very old is he? He was always so likeable. My thoughts to his family and friends :( RIP.
