Cheryl Fernandez-Versini Works Thigh-High Boots And Hotpants For X Factor Performance

Cheryl Fernandez-Versini stepped up to the plate and took to the X Factor stage to perform her own song this weekend. So, the big question (never mind all those miming rumours) is - what did she wear?

Well, what didn't she wear? The star donned a racy ensemble consisting of a white mesh crop top, paired with a teeny pair of tight white hot pants.

She also worked nude fishnet tights, but the piece de resistance was a sexy pair of white leather thigh-hight boots that featured a chunky heel covered in crystals (matching her embellished waistband, btw).

There was also what looked like a studded white shirt wrapped around her waist, perhaps for a more 'street' look or perhaps to cover her modesty.

Cheryl sang her hit single 'I Don't Care', which went straight to the top of the download charts on Saturday night.

But the performance was marred somewhat by a host of people taking to Twitter to complain that they thought she was miming in what is meant to be a live singing competition show.

A rep told MailOnline that, in fact, Cheryl was not miming. And some Twitter users said they didn't care either way, with one fan writing: "Oh so what if she's miming! She looked amazing! A lot of love for Cheryl."

There was also bad news for Cheryl's group on Sunday night as one of her 'girls' Lola Saunders was voted off the show.

Lola found herself in the sing-off against Stereo Kicks, and Simon passed over the deciding vote to the public, who showed more support for the eight-strong boy band.

Anyway, back to Chez...
