The X Factor 2015 Is Back But Everyone Is STILL Talking About Cheryl's Weight

The X Factor 2015 auditions have officially begun but it was judge Cheryl Fernandez-Versini who stole the show… again!

Despite being joined by new recruits Nick Grimshaw and Rita Ora (who tried her best to outshine Chezza in a racy, red number), it was the former Girls Aloud star's name on everyone's lips in Manchester (July 8).

The 32-year old turned heads in a pair of wide-legged trousers and a crop top, revealing her tiny waist amid fears over her recent weight loss.

Just last week, the 'I Don't Care' singer was forced to hit back at a troll on Instagram after they branded her a "bag of bones".

After seeing the comment, Mrs. Fe-Vez responded: “I am so sick and tired of it being ok to call somebody too thin or a 'bag of bones'.

“I would never dream of calling somebody too fat and that they should maybe cut down on their food intake? What is the difference?”

She went on to reveal: "You have no idea what I have been through. Just losing my father in law v recently and everything that comes with that.

“Not that I am or should justify myself to anyone. I'm so f sick of people thinking it's ok to be mean or body shame anyone. And it's woman on woman.

“Have some respect and maybe think there may be reasons why before opening your mouth please (sic).”

Cheryl and Co's appearance in Manchester was a few days later than planned after Simon Cowell was forced to delay proceedings following the death of his mother Julie.

He went on to receive a standing ovation from the crowd, with SiCo telling The Sun: "You all know I had something happen in my personal life this week. Well, this was my mum's favourite show so I am doing it in memory of her."
