A spokesperson for 'The X Factor' shared an update via the talent show's official Twitter page and confirmed that they will be performing live together 'in a few weeks': "YES - in a few weeks @QueenWillRock will be performing LIVE in the #XFactor studio with @adamlambert! #MJvsQueen."

On November 8, the Daily Star Sunday's REHAB showbiz columnist, James Ingham, also tweeted about the exciting news and told his followers that the live set will be on November 30: "For @adamlambert fans asking. I can confirm they will actually appear on @TheXFactor on Nov 30th with Queen. #AdamLambert."

Earlier this month (November 3), Brian May shot down reports of an 'X Factor' performance: "Some excellent news ahead of Monday’s release of 'Queen Forever'. This Saturday’s X Factor will be a Queen vs Michael Jackson special. Please note: Contrary to rumours, Queen + Adam will NOT be appearing!"
