Who are the celebrities on X Factor on Saturday night and what are they singing?

X Factor is returning to our screens - meaning the run up to Christmas is officially here.

But this year's X Factor , which starts tonight (Saturday, October 12), will be a little bit different to the usual format.

For starters, all the contestants will be celebrities.

And there's also no ear-damaging, cringey, early audition scenes to sit through - arguably one of the best aspects of the show for many people.

Instead the celebs will all be meeting at the fancy X Factor HQ, where they try to impress this year's judges; Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherwszinga and Louis Walsh.

To see the full line up of celebrities, including the ones who aren't singing tonight (such as Megan McKenna and Rikki Lake) click .
