X Factor bosses have told Newsbeat that Katie Waissel is "feeling fine" after she collapsed while out shopping with the other contestants in London.

The 24-year-old was in Topshop on Wednesday (20 October) when she was taken ill.

X Factor bosses said "Katie felt unwell and there were trained first aiders on hand to look after her".

The group will be performing on this weekend's show, which has a Guilty Pleasures theme.

Katie's mentor Cheryl Cole will also be performing her new single The Flood on Sunday's show.
