The X Factor is back on our screens this Saturday, and Steve Casino, a famed 'peanut artist', has immortalised five of the most infamous contestants from the last ten years of the long-running reality show.

Food takeaway company JUSTEAT put the vote to their 85,000 Twitter followers and the contestants chosen were Jedward, Kitty Brucknell, Robert Unwin, Wagner and Rylan Clark, all of whom have been bestowed with the most unique of honours.

It took Kentucky-based Casino ten hours to complete each piece of art, and their quirkiness captures the eclectic nature of the many weird and wonderful The X Factor contestants from over the years.

Jedward's boundless energy is no less suppressed in snack form.
