OK, so maybe it's just us, but we think this year's The X Factor is the probably the best ever.
Partly because FITLORD Dermot O'Leary is back, partly because we get to see Honey G aka David Cameron in a wig aka the next Jay Z with Nicki Minaj's vibe transform music as we know it, each week.
But mainly because it's just been so damn controversial and we LOVE a scandal.
There was that rumour that the welcome party was just one giant orgy.
We've got the first ever, official X Factor couple and they were caught (ALLEGEDLY) porking on the stairs.
LOLOLOL.
Plus there was that whole Brooks Way/ Four Of Diamonds debacle.
And don't even get us started on all those 'IT'S A FIX' claims.
It's been so controversial that a whole host of celebs have waded in to have their say.
And the latest to talk all things X Factor is former contestant and JLS band member, Aston Merrygold.
Speaking exclusively to heat, Aston has revealed he believes The X Factor has completely changed since his time on the show.
"It's a different show [now]," he explained.
"The judges have jumbled around a few times now. I just think even the feel of the show [is different].
"When you watch it it's like, 'we never did that' and 'we never did this.' We were the last ones to just go in and perform," he continued.
But Aston did admit that it's important for the show to evolve, saying: "It has to change and push on."
However, he also admitted that he thinks the whole novelty act thing has gone "a bit too far."
AND that he's not a HUGE fan of Honey G.
REALLY?
HOW COME?
Speaking of the rap extraordinaire, Aston said: "I don't have an opinion. You have to respect the hustle and she's on the show and she's trying to make things happen."
YUH. She's just a gal from north Weezy with a dream, Aston.
"But, there's definitely something I don't agree with," he continued.
:(
Like what, eh Aston?
Please share.
"When people are saying on the show 'you're the best rapper', that's a bit like 'come on guys, we're in a country full of some of the best lyricists in the world."
OK, you've got a point there hun.
In other news, in the run up to Christmas this year Aston is asking everyone to donate an extra gift for Cash for Kids Mission Christmas, which you can do right here.
