OUCH! The X Factor's Olly Murs fractures hand

Singer is wearing a plaster cast

Olly Murs is in pain

X Factor star Olly Murs has cracked a bone in his right hand.

The singer, 25, injured himself at the home he shares with the other contestants.

‘Olly has a boxers fracture in his right hand after hitting a punch bag in the gym area at the contestant house,' an X Factor spokeswoman tells The Sun.

‘He has a cast on his hand to prevent further damage, but will be performing as usual at the weekend.

'He's confident it won't affect his hip swivelling moves!'

Olly was snapped wearing the cast as he popped to the shops yesterday.
