X Factor contestant blasts Digital Spy Forums

X Factor’s James Arthur has launched a savage attack on Digital Spy forum users via his Twitter account.

The singer, who has made it through to the live stages of the competition, vented his fury on the social networking site describing Digital Spy forum users as “lowlifes”.

“Who are these people on the Digital Spy forums!?!? Do they have no idea that there nothing but negative lowlifes for even typing such s**t!?
 
“Some of these fools don’t even realise how disgustingly ignorant and ridiculous there opinions are!! Get a life. I wouldn’t normally rise to it but I’m in genuine disbelief that these clowns dare to write the s**t they write on there!”
 
“They should be locked up for some of the s**t they say about us lot.
 
He continued: “Rarely do I go on s**t like Digital Spy which is made for w**kers with no lives who wanna find out what’s happening on Corrie next wk but when I do all I see is abuse! I reckon they should shut that s**t down!!” – James Arthur

He later appeared to have calmed down, adding “Maybe that was a bit of a generalisation, but all I meant was there is a lot of negative people on there by the looks of it.”
The X Factor live shows begin this weekend on ITV.
