This year’s X Factor is the first time there have been two prominent competing boy bands, Union J and District 3.

Dividing the judges week on week both groups have developed a strong fan base with young girls across the country. However, both groups found themselves in the bottom two in week 6. Mentor Louis Walsh refused to vote and Gary Barlow and Nicole Scherzinger both voted to save Union J, meaning that despite Tulisa opting to save District 3 it was not enough to keep them in the competition.

In this double biography of both of the bands you’ll find out how they coped with the whole X Factor experience, the fame game, and what lies in store for them now the competition is over.
