Ed Sheeran and Nathan Sykes to Perform on This Week's X Factor

June 2024 · 2 minute read

The X Factor is spoiling us this weekend with a stellar line up of guest performances!

On Saturday night, Ed Sheeran will be gracing the X Factor stage with his friends Rudimental to perform their latest offering, “Lay It All On Me”. The last time we saw Ed on the X Factor stage was during his duet with last year’s winner Ben Haenow which was incredible. No doubt that Ed and Rudimental will put on a performance to remember.

It was already announced that host Olly Murs would be taking a breather from presenting to perform his latest track “Kiss Me” on the Sunday results show. The former contestant came second in 2009 and has been a firm X Factor favourite ever since, selling millions of records worldwide and even returning to present the show this year. Yesterday, Olly posted a throwback to his first guest performance from 2010.

Olly will also be joined by the lovely Nathan Sykes, who will be performing his new single “Over and Over Again” which is released on Friday. Nathan is no stranger to the X Factor stage, having previously performed as part of The Wanted however this is the first time that he’ll be taking to the stage on his own!

Nathan revealed the exciting X Factor news to his fans this morning via a video on Twitter.
