Losers of the week: Gary Barlow learns the hard way
X Factor fury, drug busts and death threats...
- Gary Barlow was deliciously reminded that The X Factor is always going to be about entertainment over musical credibility this week when the competent but dull Carolynne Poole (who Barlow mentored) was booted off the show in favour of Rylan Clark. Rylan's crime in Barlow's eyes? Honking his way through 'Gold' by Spandeau Ballet whilst wearing an outfit Lady Gaga might consider 'a bit OTT'. Remember viewers, Gary Barlow hates fun and loves mawkish ballads. The John Lewis ads are like porn to this man.

As another week comes to a close, there are a few people in the music world who will be glad to see the back of the past seven days. From rappers with a bus full of drugs to X Factor judges throwing a strop, it's been an interesting week.
This week, Nicki Minaj was sensationally dissed by a member of rock royalty, an iconic indie star was mocked on US TV and Simon Cowell scrapped one awful TV show idea and promptly created an even worse one.
Meanwhile, on UK shores, a painting of arguably the biggest British band ever was ruined by a penis in Liverpool and The Daily Mail took a bashing from the lead singer of another of our greatest bands.
Find out who's had a tough few days as we count down the Losers Of The Week.
