Real Like You beat the boys Unwritten Rule - which comprised of Boaz Dopemu, 19, Caius Duncombe, 19, Fred Roberts, 17, Harrison Cole, 19, Jed Thomas, 16 and Reece Wiltshire-Fessey, 19 - to be crowned winners.

Nicole Scherzinger was full of praise for the girl group and their "confidence".

She told them after they performed a mash up of \'Problem\' and \'I Can\'t Feel My Face\', she said: "You\'re so strong and confident up there. Seriously all of you girls add something so completely different to the group. I\'m beaming, I\'m so grateful, as a girl as a woman, I adore you girls."

The X Factor has no plans for coming back

Whilst Leona Lewis added: "I\'m so so proud, I just enjoyed it, there as production, there were dancers, and you just stood out and held your own."

But it was their performance of Kellimarie\'s song, \'Be Like Them\', which secured them the win.

Speaking about how much the song meant to her, she said: "I wrote that because I didn\'t feel like I fitted in with any of the friends that I had. And it\'s for any of you who feel like you don\'t fit in."
