A petition to reinstate Laura White, the contestant booted off the X-Factor at the weekend, has been started online.

X-Factor petition rockets

X-Factor petition approaches 50,000

The Mancunian 21-year-old was voted off the show, though there are reports that fans were unable to register telephone votes for White.

"Laura White was tactically removed from the X-Factor 2008," the petition reads.

"She was one the most talented singers I've ever seen on the X-Factor! I said this show was an absolute fix since the boot camp stage and it's proving me right every single week now. Bring Laura White back!" it continues.

At the time of writing, some 4,200 people have signed the petition.

The X-Factor contestant, who was up against Ruth Lorenzo in the sing-off, was given the push by Danni Minogue, Louis Walsh and Simon Cowell, all of whom voted for her opponent.

Cheryl Cole, White's mentor on the show, was the only judge to vote against Lorenzo and was reported to be furious with fellow judge Walsh.
