X Factor judge and Girls Aloud star, Cheryl Cole, toughens up on tonight's episode as she tells her contestants who will be going through to the next stage of the competition.

Straight-talking Cheryl made her views about Katie Waissel very clear during last night's show, when she branded her a drama queen. And the two are left emotional again tonight when Cheryl lectures Katie about what it takes to truly be a star.

Speaking about her time away, Cheryl said, "I definitely feel like I've missed a chunk of getting to know the girls' personalities by missing the boot camp sessions. But I love seeing everyone a second time round, seeing who jumps out at you that didn't before - or who crumbles under the pressure."

Cheryl also admits that she is really looking forward to having Dannii Minogue back with her on the judging panel, saying, "I've really missed Dannii. We all bring out different things in each other, and different views on each person."

'The X Factor' continues on our screens tonight on ITV1 at 19:45pm.
