Footie WAG’s goal: Wannabe returns to X Factor after being dropped by Louis last year

Return of the WAG ... Carolynne Poole

WAG Carolynne Poole is back to try again on tonight’s X Factor — after being dropped last year.

The hopeful — who dated Rio Ferdinand but is married to ex-Stockport player David Poole — was axed by Louis Walsh in 2011. She said: “I didn’t show you what I could do, you didn’t see the real me.”

She returns with a rendition of Emeli Sande’s Clown.

- LESBIAN Jade Ellis says she doesn’t want to be mentored by Nicole Scherzinger... because she FANCIES her. The mum of one, 25, from Charlton, South East London — who sang I Need — said: “It would be distracting. She’s just my type. When she talks I go into tunnel vision.”

- TULISA’S convent school pal Madeleine Wilson says the N-Dubz star was “a shy, sweet girl”. Madeleine, 24 — her classmate at La Sante Union, North London — said after their reunion on last night’s show: “Tula, as I knew her, was a quiet character. It was surreal auditioning in front of her.”
