1D's Louis Backs Adam Burridge For X Factor

One Direction's Louis Tomlinson is reported to have given his backing to The X Factor wildcard act Adam Burridge, attending a secret gig by the reality show hopeful last night.

Burridge is facing Chris Maloney, Amy Mottram and Times Red in the vote to get into the show's live rounds - and held a concert in East London yesterday evening.

Louis had previously stated his support for Adam, from Harrow, but was last night reported to have been among the most vocal supporters at the gig - held at Shoreditch's Cornershop venue.

Digital Spy claims that the teenager was heard shouting "More! More!" in between songs.

Adam was introduced by controversial contestant Rylan Clark - who told the crowd to get voting for him and that he would be a "global star".

His set included covers of You're The One That I Want and Titanium - along with a couple of his own efforts.
