X Factor Hit By More Fix Claims Surrounding Louisa Johnson’s Win
Just like clockwork, less than a day after Louisa Johnson was crowned the 2015 X Factor winner, a handful of ‘fix’ claims have come out from under the woodwork.

Speculation that the show’s winner is decided from the get-go is as certain every year as the sunrise, with audience members this year saying they were only allowed to use torches when Louisa was performing the winner’s single - Bob Dylan’s ‘Forever Young’.
Some of those in attendance at Wembley took to Twitter to share claims that they weren’t allowed to use the torches during Reggie ‘N’ Bollie’s performance, with one writing: “Crowd were given torches but told they could only use them for louisa. SAD TIMES for R&B.”
Another said: “Winners song next. Only told to use our “torches” for Louisa,” while one tweeted: “And the fact they are making us use the torches for Louisa means they know.”

Some viewers also believe the choice of winner’s single was chosen in Louisa’s favour, arguing that it suited her more and that the two finalists should have been given different winner’s singles as they are different artists.
Not only that, but fans also noticed a now-deleted tweet posted on Louisa’s official Twitter page, which read: “X Factor-winner Louisa Johnson’s new single is out now! Get the winner’s single “Forever Young” on iTunes now.”
The tweet would be fine, had it not been posted on FRIDAY, two days before the final results were revealed.

Eek.
Olly Murs’ deadlock gaffe with Monica Michael and Lauren Murray supposed mouthing Louisa’s name before she headed to the sing-off have also added to viewers’ accusations that the show is fixed.
