X Factor blackout! Tulisa and Nicole go goth for X Factor's darkest week

It was a dark week for The X Factor this weekend - thanks to Tulisa Contostavlos and Nicole Scherzinger's wardrobe choices.

The judges both opted to wear all-black outfits for both the live show on Saturday and the results show on Sunday evening.

T could do some serious damage with those teeth

Fitting perfectly with the weekend's Halloween theme, Saturday saw Tulisa wearing a curve-hugging fishtail dress. The judge also revealed a pair of FANGS as she smiled for the camera at the start of the show. (The same fangs she tried to sink into Nicole's neck earlier this week, no doubt.)

She can do the fang-dango

Nicole, meanwhile, was her usual understated self in a so-tight-we're-not-sure-how-she-was-breathing bodysuit made of black lace, topped with crimped hair and an unusual sculpted headpiece.

Sexy AND she knows it

And the gothic theme continued in tonight's results show. Tulisa wore a full-skirted, knee-length black frock with blood-red lips, whilst Nicole wore a rather boob-y strapless dress in - yep, you've guessed it - black.

Tulisa and her girls concentrate REALLY hard on not falling over

Nicole brings out 'her boys'. And Rylan, Jahmene and James.

With Halloween just around the corner, the wardrobe department took the opportunity to go to town on the contestants' outfits in last night's live shows.

Amongst the ladies, Ella Henderson channelled Little Red Riding Hood in a red cape and massive bird's nest hair, whilst Jade - who left the competition after losing tonight's sing-off to Union J - went all futuristic in a silver suit.

Ella, what big hair you have

Jade strikes a pose - but still got booted out

The boys got in on the Halloween act too: Rylan copied his mentor Nicole by donning an elaborate headpiece, District 3 dressed in the style of A Clockwork Orange, and Christopher Maloney came as, well, Christopher Maloney. But that's scary enough in itself, isn't it?

Rylan, who's now officially blonde again. Keep up.

Christopher Maloney. Scary.

 

Elsewhere on tonight's show, Robbie Williams gave Louis Walsh a lap dance. Naturally.
