The X-Factor has been one of the most watched talent shows in the world. One of the most recent controversies of the show is the beef between Simon Cowell and X factor Contestant Mason Noise.

The two had a run-in disagreement of sorts when Simon called Mason an "arsehole" for clamoring that his auditions lacked it's due airtime.

In response to Cowell's name calling, Mason dropped his microphone and stormed off the stage before even getting a second shot at the competition just when Tom Bleasby's exited from the Boys Category right before the Judges' Houses.

However just recently, Mason Noise claimed that Simon Cowell and him have ironed out their strained professional relationship. He actually claimed that a 'private conversation' between the two took place that made them settle things amicably.

 In Mason's statement to The Sun: "He rang me. We had a little conversation, like, 'There's no hard feelings there, there's no bad blood, no-one's upset'. Respect from artist to artist. He's the big man, the big boss."

The Judges will choose the final 3 acts over the weekend and Mason is a hopeful.

Of recent Mason is committed to get through the Live Shows with the intention that he wants to change how the viewing public thinks of his persona.

In reference to getting through the next stage of the competition, Mason has this to say, ''It would mean that I have the opportunity to show the public a different side to me and change the perception that they have of me from that one audition.''

His edge, he claims, amongst the other contestants is his versatility as a singer. The 22-year-old notes that he may not have the best vocal capacity but he is hopeful that his other attributes in being a performer will get him through the competition.

Mason tells further, ''I would never say that I am the strongest singer, but I can dance. I'm a bit more of a performer.''
