Frankie Cocozza: 'I know I'm the weakest singer on X Factor'

X Factor finalist Frankie Cocozza has hit out at the 'haters' after facing a backlash of criticism following his performance on the show over the weekend. 

The 18-year-old singer's rendition of 'Rocks' by Primal Scream was publicly slated by judge Gary Barlow and then by the band themselves, and he took to his official Twitter account yesterday (October 24) to address the negativity:

"I know I'm the weakest singer in the competition, nice of people to keep reminding me.. I'm not gunna give up trying to improve. Mugs."

"Thank you to everyone who voted last night, really appreciate it. Let's piss the haters off more. Love you all xx"
