The moment Kelly Rowland was told Frankie Cocozza had quit The X Factor

Kelly Rowland had quite a shock when she discovered that X Factor finalist Frankie Cocozza had quit the show

The Destiny's Child superstar and judge was taking part in an interview with The Showbiz 411 when she was asked her opinion on Cocozza's decision to leave the competition and looked genuinely stunned upon hearing the news. 

When told by the interviewer that he had quit (November 8), Rowland looked blank and asked "what?" before admitting that she had spent all day "locked in a room" so hadn't heard the news or read the official statements released by Gary Barlow, The X Factor or Cocozza himself. 

An announcement will be made today, November 9, about Saturday's show by The X Factor bosses and you can watch the moment Rowland found out that the singer had walked away from the competition and his place in the final here:
