Jedward are just some of the X Factor contestants who have criticised the X Factor recently of abuse of power behind the scenes.

The reality show has been responsible for the fame of stars like One Direction and Little Mix.

Here are just some of the tweets from Jedward over the last few days:

“Every contestant on the Xfactor was a slave to the show”

“Non-Disclosure Agreements are very prevalent in the music industry!

"Resulting in no one talking about the abuse/stuff that happens!”

Former contestants Brendan Murray, Mary Byrne and Tabby O'Callaghan told Andrea about their experiences on the show.
