«Breaking News» Shocking moment X Factor contestant falls BACKWARDS off the stage

This is the extraordinary moment an X Factor contestant fell backwards off the stage while singing for his place in the competition.

Singer Tommy Ludford, 20, was performing during the 'Six Chair challenge' round of the ITV talent show when he lost his footing and dramatically tumbled off set. 

The moment, which will air on tonight's episode, left Simon Cowell and his fellow judges open-mouthed in shock - and prompted panicked host Dermot O'Leary to rush to Tommy's aide.

The extraordinary moment, pictured, which will air on tonight's episode, saw Tommy fall backwards off the stage and into the pit below the set

Fortunately the singer was not seriously injured and was back on his feet just moments later.

The clip was shared on the X Factor YouTube channel ahead of tonight's episode.

The programme will see the contestants compete for a space in the next stage of the competition, where they travel to the judges' houses to sing for a place in the live finals.

The stage, pictured, was left empty as crew and host Dermot O'Leary rushed behind to check on the talent show contestant

Tommy was not seriously injured and was back on his feet in moments, raising his hand in the air triumphantly to let the audience know he was okay

Among those hoping to make the cut is singer-songwriter Tommy, who said a place at judges' houses would be 'life-changing'.   

He chooses a ballad, Dipping Biscuits, for the pivotal performance and confidently launches into the song, accompanying himself on the guitar. 

Caught up in the moment, he closes his eyes and begins to step backwards from the microphone stand, not realising that he is edging closer to the backdrop.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
