Jamie 'Afro' Archer has said that he will do things in his own way for the rest of his time in The X Factor.

The singer has reportedly had a number of disagreements with mentor Simon Cowell over his song choices on this year's show and allegedly threatened to leave the programme.

Archer told The Sun: "I've had a few problems with my confidence - I think everyone has seen that.

"I really thought I was a goner on Sunday when I was in the last three. I looked over at Lucie and the twins and thought, 'There's no way I'm not in the final two'."

He added: "But when Dermot told me I was through I just punched the air and thought, 'That's it - I mean business'. I'm doing things my way from now on."
