X Factor’s Aiden Grimshaw: Drama queen Katie Waissel’s not my favourite person

X Factor evictee Aiden thinks Katie Waissel’s a drama queen

Aiden Grimshaw admits he and Katie weren't friends

Aiden Grimshaw says that Katie Waissel begged him not to
hate her when he was voted off The X Factor at the weekend.

After the judges reached deadlock, it was revealed that the teenager had the lowest number of viewers' votes.

'Katie was very shocked,' says Aiden. 'She has been in the bottom two millions of times.

‘She was just asking me not to hate her. Hate's a strong
word but she's not my favourite person in the world. Some people you just don't get on with.

‘There is always someone in the world that doesn't float
your boat. She doesn't float my boat.

'She is a drama queen.'

Aiden, 18, who sang the Crowded House classic Don't Dream It's Over to
fight for survival, says he was shocked that Simon Cowell, 51, voted to save Katie, 24.

‘I was surprised but you've got to expect it if you're
standing there,' he tells the Daily Mirror.

'If you stand there thinking: "I'm going through", you would be devastated if you went home.'
