Singer Cheryl Cole was left scared after a fan grabbed her by the wrist and didn't let her go outside a hotel in Birmingham.
Clutching a marker pen, the woman shoved a CD of Cheryl's album "3 Words" into the singer's face and didn't let her go while continuously demanding her to sign it.
Later, Cheryl's security men managed to prise the woman away as they fought their way through the crowd.
Cheryl was joined by fellow judges music moguls Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh, and guest judge model Natalie Imbruglia, at the day-long second round auditions of the show in Birmingham.
