On tonight's (Oct. 4) Boot Camp episode of 'X Factor,' the contestants were given their second task, which was to face off against one another on the same song. They were literally fighting for their lives.
The audition rounds are over and 'X Factor' is moving full steam ahead with the boot camp phase, where the men will be separated from the boys, the women from the girls, the musical wheat from the chaff. By the end of the week, only 24 contestants will remain out of 120. Only the strong survive.
Boot camp has begun over on 'X Factor,' and because of the presidential debate, the typical two-hour Wednesday installment was crunched down to a simple hour, but at least they were able to bring some drama!
After a montage of awful 'X Factor' auditions - Simon even compared a group to a time when he sat on two cats -- we knew we were in for a good audition with Lauren Jauregui.

The infinitely stylish David Correy auditioned on tonight's (Sept. 26) episode of 'X Factor,' and he was quite the Travie McCoy lookalike, with his beard and tattoos.
