Rachel pleads for 'X Factor' vote

X Factor's Rachel Adedeji has posted a video diary pleading for the show's fans to vote for her.

The singer claimed that she should would carry on fighting to stay in the competition, but admitted that it felt horrible to keep being placed in the bottom two.

Adedeji has been forced to sing two Survival Songs already in the live shows.

Speaking to the official X Factor website, she said: "I was in the bottom two on Sunday again. Yeah, it wasn't nice, guys. Please vote for me. What? Why? It really hurts my heart, you know!"

She continued: "You know what? I have come out of the bottom two feeling good. I see the show as a matinee performance now. I get to perform twice in a week, which is brilliant. I see this as a challenge that I will overcome. If you guys don't want to vote for me, that's fine.

"Because I will just go into the bottom two and fight for what I'm here for. I'm here because I want to win. You guys are just not giving me that opportunity.

"Please, please vote for me, I'm trying so hard and I want you guys to really like me. I'm not a bad person, I swear to you. I am a lovely girl, I'm only 18, I'm a kid. I'm not mentally prepared for being in the bottom two. It's so horrible - I don't want to be there again."

The X Factor airs on Saturday at 8pm on ITV1.
