X Factor judge Louis Walsh has blasted Cheryl Cole after she claimed things are “frosty” on set because of him.
But Louis – who Cheryl made Simon make sure didn’t sit beside her – has blasted the star for her bitchiness and said he is “taken aback” at her claims.
“I don’t know what her problem is. Things have been going really well,” he told the Sunday World. “We finished our third day of auditions on Friday, our first day in London.
Backed up: Cheryl is being given support by Simon
“We’re all getting on brilliant, Mel is the best fun. Simon is up to mischief and it’s all good.”
And Louis denied there was any frostiness as Cheryl claimed, adding: “Not at all, not even slightly. To be honest we’re all getting on incredibly well.
“We genuinely all get on so well and the two girls are getting on fantastic. When we get bored we have a bit of fun and jibe each other.”
He added that there are “loads” of Irish acts who have auditioned and that “at least four” have made it to boot camp.
