Shock near exit: Nu Vibe went up against assumed favourite Frankie Cocozza singing for survival
Gary Barlow was the only judge who boasted that he did not feel nervous ahead of tonight's results on the X Factor.
It seems the Take That judge may have overestimated the female fan base for his contestant Frankie Cocozza, who ended up in the bottom two alongside Nu Vibe.
The teen's survival performance was enough to keep him in the competition though, as only Nu Vibe's mentor Tulisa chose to save the group.
Shock near exit: Nu Vibe went up against assumed favourite Frankie Cocozza singing for survivalNu Vibe performed a slowed-down, almost unrecognisable rendition of Cheryl Cole's Promise This.
Tulisa shed tears as she watched her group perform, telling the audience that she was so sad to see the group in this position as she had so much faith in them.
The group, who were thrown together during boot camp after auditioning as solo artists, were graceful in defeat, thanking the judges for the opportunity.
During their chat on the Xtra Factor later, the band nominated Misha B and The Risk as their favourites of the finalists, and Craig as the one to win.
