The final nine got the show off with a bang thanks to the pumping sounds of Wilson Phillips’ "Hold On".
We were then shown a glimpse of the contestants’ exclusive gig at the Macca’s Roof Top Party; before all-Australian songstress Vanessa Amorosi hit the stage to perform her new single Amazing.
Chris Isaak then rolled back the one o’clock, two o’clock, three o’clock, four, and got all Roy Orbison on us with his rendition of "Oh, Pretty Woman".
Perhaps it was a doff of the cap to the Julia Roberts/Richard Gere film from the decade we were celebrating?
It was then time for two new acts - Johnny Ruffo and Audio Vixen - to realise they were singing for their X Factor survival.
When Johnny had finished singing "Just The Way You Are" and Audio Vixen had tackled Queen’s "Somebody To Love", all they could do was await the judges’ verdicts.
After the judges couldn’t decide a clear winner, it went down to deadlock… the public vote.
And with that, Audio Vixen were out of the competition, as they'd received the fewest public votes.

what a night last night, leaving it to thepublic to vote, come on the wrong person went home. i don't think the public should vote when two people are singing to stay in a competiton.
Replyreally dissapointed abt mel's decision how come jony survive so far without strong voice xfactor isn't seems to be singing competition, going towards different show
ReplyHow very sad that A/V was sent home. I would be surprised if little Johnnie lasts another week. Mel? what on earth were you thinking? Maybe its time our judges were Australian made....
ReplyHow ridiculous to have sent A/V home instead of little Johnnie who does NOT have a strong voice. After saying "It WON'T go to deadlock, Mel immediately send home the act that DOES take it to deadlock. Go figure.?? Johnny got through for no other reason than that he looks "nice". Lets face it, he won't be there in a few weeks time anyway where-as Audio Vixen who were clearly much better, just may have been. It seems that talent doesn't count above looking "good"? anymore.
Replyfirst of all darai, check your facts before you post, the lead female singer was the eldest member of the group. I don't agree with AV going home, they were more boring acts that should have been sent home before them like mitchell. Big mistake made by Australia.
