Labrinth thinks The X Factor is “absolute shit”

Tokyo non-visitor Labrinth isn’t a huge fan of The X Factor.

Talking to the Metro about whether he’d ever go on his label boss Simon Cowell’s reasonably  popular TV show, he said: “What do you think I should do? For me, I think it’s absolute shit.”

He went on to say that going on the show was mainly a way “to get a couple more Twitter fans”.

We’re sure that’s not quite what Harry Styles mouthed in Matt Cardle’s ear, but fair enough.

UPDATE: Labrinth has ‘taken to Twitter’ to refute the claims, saying: “I’ve gotta give it to the metro paper for there amazing ability to reconstruct words in controversial bullshit…”
