We were all totally shocked when Gifty Louise got the chop from The X Factor on Sunday night.

Well, all of us apart from Gifty herself, who now claims she was given advance warning of her elimination from the competition the night before. WHAT?!

But votes are collected right up until about half way through the Sunday night results show, so how could this even happen?

And it looks like Gifty's not giving too much away about the situation.

"I knew I was going home, I got told I was going home on the Saturday night, so I knew," she told On Demand Entertainment.

So who told her? Why did they tell her? Or does she mean someone backstage had a strong feeling she was going to get the boot and gave her the heads up? SO MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS.

Meanwhile, like most of the viewing public, Gifty felt her elimination was bang out of order. Though she refused to be pushed over which contestant should have been kicked out in her place.

"I don’t want to mention any names," she continued. "But I did feel it was unfair. It was my first time in the bottom two.

"For Four Of Diamonds it was their second time, Ryan Lawrie has been in the bottom three three times. It is what it is."

And who could forget Gifty's pissed off face? Many assumed she had beef with mentor Simon Cowell after he gave her yet ANOTHER Fifth Harmony song to sing. And it wasn't exactly one of their bangerz.

"I don’t really blame him I honestly feel like he thought that was the right song for me and I could do it justice," Gifty said.

We've contacted The X Factor about Gifty's claims - so stay tuned.
