It’s X Factor madness at the moment and, in the middle of it all, is KISS FM DJ Melvin O’Doom. And he is loving it.

heat caught up with Melvin at the KISS Haunted House Party at London’s SSE Arena last night and T_he Xtra Factor_ host told us something very BIG is happening tomorrow night.

“There’s a big surprise this weekend, it’s for definite,” Melvin teased, before putting his hand to his mouth and telling us he couldn’t say another word on the matter.

More stories!

Is it another wildcard? “There are no more wildcards – it’s just Monica Michael,” Melvin explained.

“She’s back and it’s a big deal. She’s so talented and I was so happy when I found out she was coming back. I met her whole family when we filmed her VT and she is the nicest girl.”

Saturday night kicks off the live shows on The X Factor and with a performance from last year’s winner Ben Haenow on the cards, we think it’s going to a cracker. And so does Melv. “Wait until you see the show tomorrow night,” he added.

“They’ve all been working so hard in their rehearsals – the performances you’ll see are next level.”

Oh Melvin, we cannot wait!
