Mild-mannered X Factor contestant Rebecca Ferguson took to Twitter last night to reveal that she had fired her management, labelling her former bosses as 'vile'.

Ferguson's main issue with the management team appeared to be that they were over working her to the point of exhaustion as well as keeping her from seeing her family.

In a series of Tweets, which you can see below, Ferguson said: "resorting to stalking my twitter the same people that watched me collapse ... And gave me a can of coke and said now go do your interview."

Adding: "Was so exhausted I couldn't physically walk on my own but was still told I had to work!!! ‪#vile"

"Be nice to have a nice new responsible caring management team!! Who care for me and my childrens well being ‪#seeyouincourt‬!!!"

Ferguson finished as a runner up in the 2010 series of The X Factor and released her debut album, 'Heaven', in 2011.
