Last Night Danyl sang Aerosmith’s Don’t Wanna Miss A Thing for the ‘Rock Week’ live show, the 27-year-old looked completely destroyed.

While judges Dannii Minogue and Louis Walsh tried to boost his self-esteem, Cheryl Cole knocked him back down again when she told him ‘You just don’t do it for me’.

Before performing, Danyl admitted he had been upset by some of the nasty criticism he had read about himself on the internet.

He said: ‘I was completely devastated to be in the bottom two last week. Someone posted on Twitter that I’m more hated than Hitler.’

After consistently good performances during the auditions and previous live shows, Danyl’s vocals were noticeably below par as he sang the rock classic.

Dannii said: ‘I felt like it was sad to see, you’ve lost your mojo.

‘I feel like you’ve been stripped back too much and it’s not your natural performance.

‘At the end of the song you hit your stride and the big notes were fantastic, but it was out of tune right at the beginning then throughout.

Louis continued: ‘There’s no way you should have been in the bottom two last week, absolutely no way. This is a talent show, and you’re a very talented guy.

‘I know you’ve had a setback, but I want people at home to give you a second chance. You have something special. Pick yourself up and get back in the race, because that’s life.’

Speaking to host Dermot O’Leary, Danyl admitted he was feeling incredibly low: ‘The song’s been hard and the week’s been hard. I need to pick myself up. I just want to impress you all.’

But while Danyl appeared to have taken a step back performance wise, other acts stepped up their game.

John and Edward provided Simon with his Hallowe’en nightmare as they performed Queen’s We Will Rock You.

Dressed like metallers with black eyeliner and their signature blonde hair dyed two-tone with black, the Irish twins shouted the rock anthem backed by a troupe of dancers.

Dannii conceded: ‘Well, it is Hallowe’en, and that was quite scary. I think you almost needed a SatNav to find your way back to the lyrics at some point.

‘I look forward to seeing you every week but I’m not sure I’d look forward to hearing you on the radio. You’ve really got to listen to the song.’

Simon continued with his weekly vitriol for the teenagers: ‘Well, it was night of the living dead. Singing Queen out of tune, possibly destroying Queen’s career forever.

‘Look, guys, I credit you with tenacity. You’ve stayed in the competition, you’re thick-skinned. However, you cannot, cannot defend that singing tonight.’

X Factor choreographer Brian Friedman has compared listening to John & Edward to “entering the gates of hell”.

So …. who is your bottom TWO ??
