A FORMER Bury student will not be going into the live finals of The X Factor.
This weekend teenager Daniel Fox appeared on the ITV1 talent show with mentor Cheryl Cole in Morocco as he battles for a place in the final 12.
Daniel, who studied performing arts at Bury College, was chosen as one of the final 24, despite Cheryl’s disapproval when he sang U2’s With Or Without You in the bootcamp stages.
This week, Daniel said he was “disappointed” when he discovered the Girls Aloud star was mentoring the boys’ group.
In today's show, amid dramatic scenes in which Cheryl said she didn't feel right letting him through, she told Daniel of his fate.
Daniel, aged 19, of Bury Old Road, Heywood, said viewers could expect “quite a drama” on this weekend’s show when he sings Mariah Carey’s Without and Lonestar’s I Am Already There.
