'X Factor' auditionee goes missing

An X Factor hopeful who stunned the judges with a foul-mouthed rant has gone missing, according to a report.

Rachel Lesteri, 25, was seen auditioning for the ITV1 talent series with a rendition of Sheena Easton's 'Sugar Walls' on Saturday night. After she was slated by the four judges for her lack of vocal ability and "bad attitude", Rachel launched into a tirade against them and had to be escorted out of the building.

Show producers recently sent a TV crew to the rented home Rachel listed on her application form, but found that nobody was living there and a pile of mail was building up behind the front door.

A spokeswoman told the Daily Star: "We have tried to contact Rachel since her audition but nobody has been able to reach her."
