We’ve been keeping an eye on this, and we’re not sure what to make of it. The X Factor has certainly been a major talking point the last few weeks, from the drama of the six-chair challenge to the rollercoaster of Judges' Houses. Now though, the rumour mill has gone into overdrive as it seems as though one hopeful contestant may be hinting that she could be coming back as a wild card. Monica Michael, who was dropped by judge Rita Ora, tweeted a somewhat cryptic message on Tuesday of this week that has made fans of the show start to speculate if she is in fact making her way back to the popular programme.

So much for thinking I was getting a few days off! ;) x

She later retweeted a number of tweets from fans stating that they’d love to see her back as a wild card. Meanwhile, earlier on this week, X Factor judge Nick Grimshaw said that if he was to pick a wild card, then Monica would be the one he’d chose. “Maybe Monica. I love Monica,” he told Digital Spy. “I thought it was very courageous – it took balls to do a song which she’s written." https://youtu.be/0U-yRWjMtP4 “I’d love to see Monica come back. I think she’s got something.” On top of that, on a VT shown on This Morning on Monday, boss Simon Cowell hinted that a wild card may be a possibility. “I wouldn’t rule anything out right now.” Hmmm.
