Louis Walsh tipped to WIN the X Factor this year – for first time in NINE years

X Factor star Louis Walsh finally has a chance of winning the talent contest again.

The Mayo man has yet to take the top prize again since 2005 – when he won with Shayne Ward.

But the 62-year-old is now tipped for the top spot after filming judges houses with his groups in Bermuda – with the help of Tulisa.

A source said: “The standard of the groups this year is high and there were no obvious weak links in the final six.”

However Louis was lucky to even pick his final three as storms caused total chaos during filming on what should have been a paradise island.

“The weather was a nightmare. We were promised non-stop sunshine, instead we had gales, rain, thunder and lightning,” a source told the Sun.

“It was Bermuda’s worst August in years and threw the whole schedule into chaos because we couldn’t film anything in such awful conditions.

“The result was a lot of hanging around, waiting for a pocket of sun, and a lot of stress for the crew.

“Luckily, after a long wait, we were able to film the auditions in one go. But after that brief let-up, the bad weather returned and caused more problems.

“There are scenes we had to film with Louis and Tulisa with thunder and lightning crashing in the background because we were running out of time.

“It was far from ideal and disappointing to jet the whole cast to such an exotic location only to have them all be rained on during filming.”
