Cowell kicks Marsh from 'X Factor'
Page 3 girl Michelle Marsh got the boot from X Factor: Battle of the Stars last night in a controversial decision from Simon Cowell.

The acid-tongued judge instead opted to keep former EastEnders actress Lucy Benjamin, who had made no secret of the fact that she would have liked to have gone home.

On hearing the news, Marsh quipped to Cowell: "I kind of expected it since I turned you down!" She had earlier received unanimous praise from the judges for her performance of Alanis Morissette's 'Ironic'.

Elsewhere, Sharon Osbourne refused to comment on Rebecca Loos and James Hewitt's latest performance - an "extraordinarily posh" version of Robbie Williams' 'Rock DJ' - while R1 DJ Chris Moyles dazzled the panel with a unique rendition of Louis Armstrong classic 'Wonderful World'.
