X Factor finalist Rhydian Roberts is reportedly angry with producers for portraying him as a "pantomime villain".
The opera singer, from Powys, Mid Wales, apparently failed to turn up at the show's residential mansion on Monday night despite making it through.
He had to be persuaded not to quit, according to The Sun.
A friend revealed: "Rhyd is not happy about how he’s been made a laughing stock.
"He feels he’s been unfairly edited to look like an idiot, whereas the others are given more sympathetic editing and a chance to tell their sob stories. He was talking about quitting over it."
But a show insider added: "He’s going to try and get his real personality across on the live shows and hope people warm to him."
