Shayne Ward hits out at ”pathetic” X-Factor

He won millions of fans worldwide when he was crowned the winner of The X Factor back in 2005.

And now Shayne Ward has come forward to blast the show that made him famous after they left him off a promo for the upcoming series.

The advert for the next series of The X Factor features appearances from success stories on the show including One Direction, Olly Murs, Little Mix and JLS, as well as ex-winners Leona Lewis and Alexandra Burke.

But after being snubbed by the series, Shayne took to Twitter to express his disappointment.

He tweeted: ’Just seen the new Xfactor promo video.

‘Yet again it’s like im being erased slowly from their history.Pathetic really Would love to know why?’

After receiving supportive messages from some of his 170,000 followers, Shayne later tweeted: ‘Thank you to everyone who tweeted me nice messages.It just would’ve been nice to have been acknowledged.

‘It was a big part of my life.’
