I want to give Aiden Grimshaw a cuddle.

Here at Being Boiled, we don’t often report on X Factor shenanigans, but we have been more than a little bit taken with the mental-faced loveliness of a certain Aiden Grimshaw.

Now poor little Aiden’s been given the boot, it makes us want to grab his little cheeks and hug him even more - particularly when he laid his soul bare on the, er, hallowed Daybreak sofa. And admitted he had a little cry.

He said: “I had a beer or two ... I'm OK, last night I had a bit of a sob with Matt, but I'll get over it, I think. You've always got to expect you are going to be in the bottom two and prepare. It is what it is, you win some, you lose some."


Altogether now: ‘awwwwwwwwwwwwwww’.
