Shirlena
It looks like wacky X Factor contestant Shirlena wasn't just acting up for the cameras with her rendition of Mercy by Duffy, after it was alleged that she is actually suffering from a mental illness.
Shirlina has become one of the most talked about contestants after she crawled around, growled and wailed her way through an audition that was described as similar to an exorcism, but now it looks as though her future on the show could be in jeopardy.
After Simon Cowell saw what happened to Susan Boyle when she became an overnight star, he worries that the pressure of the show could be too much Shirlena to cope with, and she has a little daughter Mariah to think about.
Medics have warned that the 30-year-old is a "ticking timebomb" and now the show's bosses will have to decide whether or not to allow her to continue.
