Dermot O’Leary Thinks One X Factor Judge Plays Dirty…

It's one type of strategy anyway!

Dermot O’Leary genuinely seems like he would be the absolute craic to have a chat with, and the laughs were certainly had when he joined Alan Carr on the Chatty Man couch.

Not surprisingly, the X Factor was a popular topic of conversation and Dermot had a lot to say about one Louis Walsh.

Dermot thinks Louis is a bit of a messer (we would never have guessed) and he often plays dirty in order to get ahead.

According to OK! magazine, the host of the singing competition told Alan: “We get to the live studios and they all want them to do well – apart from Louis, who doesn’t really care… he does care, he does care.

“He’s also the dirtiest judge – he’s the judge that nicks songs; before you know it his act will have a song, and another judge will be going ‘hang on, I picked that for my act’”.

That said, Dermot is still one of the Mayo man’s biggest fans saying: “I honestly couldn’t make the show without Louis. I know Louis’ going to come out with something mental and I’ll just be like ‘thank you!’”.

The full interview airs tonight on Channel 4 at 10pm as part of Alan Carr: Chatty Man.
