Diva Fever: 'Song choices limited us'

Former X Factor contestants Diva Fever have criticised mentor Simon Cowell for the songs that they were given during the competition.

The duo, who performed Duck Sauce's 'Barbra Streisand' during last night's show, were voted off the contest tonight, and revealed that they believed that the song choices were a major factor in their elimination.

Member Craig Saggers said on The Xtra Factor: "I've been saying all week that ['Barbra Streisand'] has no melody in it, there's no singing - and I just felt like the songs we were given... we were handicapped.

"We can actually really sing, and hopefully in the survival song [Gloria Gaynor's 'I Will Survive'] we showed that we actually can sing."

Joe Al-Smadi added: "We expressed the fact that we didn't like the song, but they made us do it anyway. We went out like professionals and said, 'Do you know what? Simon had a vision'."

The X Factor continues next Saturday at 7.45pm on ITV1.
