AN X FACTOR singer from girlband Mon Amie has claimed producers knew who would be put through by judges BEFORE the auditions.
Singer Honey Fine has filmed a TikTok video about her experience on the ITV talent show back in 2015 with bandmates Abi, Monifa and Izzy.
Explaining how they ended up auditioning, Honey said: "The girlband was formed at college and we were asked to do loads of videos by the producers at X Factor after being together for a day.
"We kept doing these videos and they kept saying 'we need more, we need more'.
"Eventually we got to the producers' office. From there we went to Wembley where we did our first audition on stage.
"We made it through and were waiting to view ourselves on TV and it never ever came on.

"We were like, what the f***."
"We were sent to bootcamp and that was a really good experience, but what we didn't realise was that people had already been contracted to make it through to the live shows."
The Sun contacted The X Factor for comment.
Her bandmate Izzy chimed in: "It was so obvious with Louisa Johnson being filmed all day every day, but we had no clue."
Louisa became the 12th winner of The X Factor that year – but went on to blast the show, saying it "triggered severe anxiety".
Honey continued: "We just sat there while everyone was being filmed 24/7 and though 'oh what's going on'.
"Then we were asked to be filmed once, when everyone else was going here there and everywhere.
