THOUSANDS packed a Worcester nightclub to see the first of the X Factor rejects perform.

Amelia Lily and James Michael performed at Tramps in Angel Place before posing for pictures with clubgoers.

The two contestants were booted off the ITV show 10 days ago in a twist to the normal format, which saw judges choose one of their own acts to leave.

Tramps director Dean Hill said: “It was a very good night. They went down well so it was a very good start for this year’s run.”
