The X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos reportedly had to wear a disguise to hide from contestants on the show as they shared a plane for the Judges' Houses section of the show.

The former N-Dubz star is claimed by The Sun to have worn a cap, hooded sweatshirt and sunglasses on the long haul flight to St Lucia - so as not to give the game away to the hopefuls that she would be mentoring on the show.

A source said: "A vital part of the show is when the group find out who their mentor is and it has to be in a suitably glamorous location – not at Gatwick Airport.

"It was a logistical nightmare smuggling Tulisa on and off the plane and sneaking her past the contestants and into the resort.

"She loved the challenge, though, and had a right giggle getting dressed up."

We told you this morning how Simon Cowell is reported to have flown back to the UK to take charge of the editing for this weekend's shows.
