X Factor has been back on our screens for just two weeks, and already rumours of a backstage feud between two of the judges has emerged.
New judge Nicole Scherzinger and returning star Tulisa are said to be 'rubbing each other up the wrong way' long before the pair go head to head in the live shows. Tulisa is said to be angry at Nicole's actions during the audition process, and is apparently jealous at her relationship with fellow judge, Gary Barlow.
"Tulisa thinks Nicole hogs the limelight, singing and getting to her feet during auditions," says a source to The Daily Mail. "It really aggravates Tulisa. And Nicole fawns over Gary Barlow, getting really touchy feely with him at every opportunity."
The feud is set to escalate when the judges are handed their categories when the show enters its judges house stage, ahead of the live finals.
Tulisa has a history of falling out with fellow judges, having had a run in with Kelly Rowland on the 2011 series after she alleged one of Rowland's acts was bullying her own, Little Mix.
