X Factor 2026: Third Live Show Features Fulminacci and Lenanie’s Elimination
During the evening, the remaining 11 contestants across the four teams performed across two competitive heats. Following the public votes, Lenanie (from Irama's team) and Manu (from Paola Iezzi's team) landed in the bottom two and faced the final showdown. While Irama voted to eliminate Manu, the remaining judges—Paola Iezzi, Jake La Furia, and Francesco Gabbani—voted to eliminate Lenanie, bringing an end to her run in the competition.
The musical evening was further enriched by a special guest performance from singer-songwriter Fulminacci, who performed on the X Factor Arena stage. The broadcast continues weekly on Sky and NOW, produced by Fremantle.
