EEK! With the first exciting Live Show a mere day away, we have set up camp at The X Factor studio to bring you all the backstage news from behind-the-scenes...

We don't know about you, but we are buzzing with nervous energy ahead of the first Live Show tomorrow. God knows how our 16 finalists must be feeling... well, actually, we do!

Check back here throughout the day for all the latest backstage gossip and pictures!

9.07 am

The 16 finalists are wolfing down a slap up breakfast of bacon, sausages, beans and eggs in the canteen.

There are a few tired faces around and Perrie Edwards from Rhythmix is desperately trying to squeeze in a few more winks of sleep.

"Do you know when they open the green room this morning?", she asks. "I need some sleep. We had an early start."

Misha B on the other hand is bouncing around excitedly. "Never mind tomorrow's show, I can't believe we're here at The X Factor studio!"

Also raring to go is Jonjo Kerr, who admitted: "I was nervous before, but now I found out the big twist, I'm scared of Sunday. But I'm ready for tomorrow!"

12.00 am

We bumped into Sami Brookes in the corridor, who told us how her lessons with The X Factor talent coach Anne-Marie Speed are helping her to control her nerves.

She told us: "This morning I got to the studio and I was a bag of nerves. But then I did my vocal lesson and I just feel energetic. That lady works wonders. I've just come out of her room and I feel like I've done an aerobics class because she is that good."

2.01pm

Fresh off the stage after his soundcheck and rehearsal, Johnny Robinson tells us he can't wait for the first Live Show: "I'm very very excited about Saturday's performance. It feels amazing to be on The X Factor stage.

"My production is going to be amazing, I'm really, really lucky. I really didn't expect it to be so big. I'm just going to do my best and enjoy it, and I hope people at home will enjoy watching it."

5.13pm

Groups mentor Tulisa is having a catch up with her acts in the corridor - but she didn't expect a freshly spray-tanned Bradley from Nu Vibe to turn up in a lovely dark shade of gold.

"What happened to youuu?" she laughed.

Tulisa also found the time to chat fashion with the 2 Shoe gals, explaining she likes to mix high street and designer clothes. A girl after our own hearts!
