The 16 X Factor finalists are going to record a charity single in aid of Help for Heroes.

They will be covering David Bowie's track Heroes, to raise money for injured servicemen and women.

Acts like Cher, Aiden, Mary Byrne and Diva Fever will record the track and video in the next week.

In 2008, X Factor finalists including Alexandra Burke, JLS and Diana Vickers recorded a cover of the track Hero for the charity.

It broke sales records and raised £1.3m for a rehabilitation complex at Headley Court in Surrey.
