X Factor theme is Take That/Elton John

The five remaining X Factor contestants are to tackle songs from Take That or Elton John on Saturday. Dannii Minogue confirmed the news in a Twitter post.

The Aussie judge was responding to a fan who asked if her remaining act Stacey Solomon would be performing a Barbara Streisand number.

Minogue Tweeted: "I love Streisand and [Stacey] can certainly sing those kind of huge songs, but I have to follow the theme! Elton/Take That this week!"

Stacey and the other remaining acts, Lloyd Daniels, Joe McElderry, Danyl Johnson and Olly Murs, will perform one track by Elton John and one track by Take That.

None of the song choices for the acts have been revealed but with each singer having to learn two songs and two dance routines, the pressure is really on.

During X Factor 2008 they had a Take That week which included highlights such as Alexandra Burke performing 'Relight My Fire', JLS singing 'A Million Love Songs', Eoghan Quigg's 'Never Forget' and Ruth Lorenzo's rendition of 'Love Ain't Here Anymore'.

It is believed that Alicia Keys and Rihanna will be the special guests to appear on the live results show.

Rihanna is thought to be acting as a guest mentor for the acts still in the competition and will sing her new single `Russian Roulette' on the show.
