'Drugs' scandal: Anthony Russell has reportedly been kicked off the X Factor tour 'for good' after a cleaner found suspicious looking small plastic bags in his hotel room on Sunday
After the clean found the plastic bags in a Sheffield hotel, Anthony was spoken to by bosses who decided it would be best if he left the tour.
A source told The Sun: 'He's off the tour completely and he won't be coming back.
'All the other performers are gutted because Anthony is a lovely bloke. But he's got these demons he can't control at the moment.'

A tour spokesperson confirmed to the publication he had left for 'personal reasons', MailOnline have contacted the X Factor and Anthony for further comment.
Anthony was put through to the live shows by his mentor Louis Tomlinson, who told him during the Judge's Houses round that 'of course he would be making it to the final rounds'.
Anthony gushed about Louis, telling him: 'I wouldn't be where I am if it wasn't for Louis. I'm clean, fresh out the toaster!'
After he was put through by Louis, viewers learned that the millionaire paid for him to go to rehab in 2017 due to an addiction problem, after he left the show due to 'personal reasons'.

After pulling out of the series in 2017, ITV said that he 'needed to straighten himself out', notably appearing at one of his auditions last year with a black eye.
On Anthony's return to the competition this year, it was explained that Louis had watched the show and reached out to Anthony, offering to help and get him into rehab.
He sailed through the competition, and ended up in Louis' Boys category - despite, at the age of 28 should technically be in the Overs.
Unfair: Viewers learnt that Anthony - who auditioned for the show in 2007 and 2017 - was already pals with Louis, after the One Direction millionaire paid for him to go to rehab last year due to an addiction problem
ITV confirmed at the time: 'Anthony has been going through some personal issues for some time – as he sang about at his audition. Those issues were still affecting him.
'Everyone has urged him to concentrate on getting himself better right now. Production are all very fond of him and think he has really potential so have told him, if he straightens himself out, they would love him to have another shot at X Factor next year.
'That is the perfect incentive for him to get his life back on track. Everyone hopes he will come back next year healthier.'
Anthony said, when he came back in 2018: 'I thought I had a shot at this, I could be someone – and then I started going down a rocky road, making bad choices, the wrong decisions, started getting weak.
'I wouldn’t have been in this place I am now – a good place – if it wasn’t for Louis.’

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.
