British-born singer Natalia Kills made headlines around the world when she launched into a shocking attack on the first live show of this year’s New Zealand X Factor.
Following contestant Joe Irvine that his performance ‘disgusted and embarrassed’ her, before her husband, fellow judge Willy Moon, joined her in the humiliating dress down.
The couple were subsequently fired from the show after they accused Irvine of copying Moon.
Natalia’s spokesperson said following her sacking: “She stands by what she said."
But UK judge Louis Walsh says he suspects Natalia will soon regret her actions when she struggles to find work.
"She obviously has no class, no taste. She'll never work again I reckon. Who's going to hire her? Nobody.
"It's cruel and it's not right. These shows are supposed to be fun. People sit back and they want to be entertained. They don't want to hear people taking people to pieces."
An online petition called for her to be sacked from the show, following by comparisons between Natalia’s ‘individual’ style and several other female singers, including Jessie J and Lilly Allen.
