Farewell performance: Westlife performed for the last time on television as a band. Dermot then asked the judges what their personal highlights of the series were. Louis said: 'Working with these three judges has been amazing. But Johnny and Kitty every week brought something new so I have to say my highlight was Johny and Kitty.
Tulisa said: 'My highlight was every single week, the results show seeing Little Mix get through. And Kelly said: 'Being a mentor to such incredible talent is amazing. Gary concluded: 'I wanted to put a musical stamp on this show and then a Chinese lady called Goldie Cheung put her leg around my neck and I thought, what am I doing here? Emotional: Marcus gets a hug from presenter Dermot O'Leary after the performance.
The first guest performance came from Westlife, who were performing for the final time on television as the group after announcing earlier this year that they would be splitting following a farewell tour. Then it was time for both acts to perform Cannonball, the winner's single. Marcus was up first, with Louis saying afterwards: 'Another powerful vocal performance.
If I was looking for the perfect pop star I would get you. All you need now is votes. Support: Robbie Williams and Marcus's mum Tracy sent video messages of support to the Liverpudlian ahead of the results announcement. Tulisa said: 'You really do have everything - the voice, the star quality, the personality and one of the most beautiful smiles I have ever seen. Kelly said: 'That was such a beautiful, emotional performance tonight and I can tell how bad you want this and I want this for you.
And Gary said: 'Congratulations, what a performance that was. I would never have picked that song for you but you sing it so beautifully. Getting some support in video messages from his family, Robbie Williams said: 'Marcus, you are amazing and you are going to be an awesome artist. Stripping it back: Little Mix kept it simple with their more acoustic approach to Cannonball.
His mother Tracy was also seen saying: 'I just wanted to say how very proud of you I am. Who would have believed you would be standing here in the final. You're my little boy and I do hope that that little boy goes on to become a really big star because you deserve it. Then it was the turn of Little Mix to perform Cannonball, going for a more acoustic approach with the track. With all the girls struggling to control their emotions, Louis said: 'Well girls, we're all getting emotional is because four little pop princesses have been born.
We need some girl power, you deserve the votes. Stunned: The girls watch as they get messages of support from family and friends. Kelly said: 'Ladies, congratulations.
Thinking about how far you have come, look at how dynamic you are collectively. Gary said: 'Well done, you twisted this song and made into a Little Mix song which is hard to do. And Tulisa said: 'Jade, you are the most adorable person I have ever known, Jesy, you are inspiring, Leigh-Anne, you remind me of myself years ago and Perrie, you were born a star. Tears all around: The girls struggled to control their emotions after seeing the messages. The girls were then shown messages of support from their family and friends, as well as celebrity fans including Holly Willoughby and Jessie J.
The next guest performance came from Coldplay, who performed their single Charlie Brown, before going into Paradise. Frontman Chris Martin wore a casual blue T-shirt as the group belted out their songs to a psychedelic backdrop, much to the delight of the fans.
Asked if they were fans of the show, Martin said: 'We love the show, we're so happy to be on it, it's great. Psychedelic: Coldplay performed to a backdrop of bright colours as they belted out their songs. Sweaty: Martin said his advice to contestants was not to get as sweaty as he did.

Judgement day: The judges make their way to the stage for the final time. Poll Do you think the right person won The X Factor? Yes - it was about time a group won. After they sang, judge Louis Walsh predicted the group would be the biggest girl band in the UK "by a mile".
Walsh described the singer as "a born little pop star" with fellow judge Gary Barlow calling it "an amazing performance". However the performance was not enough to keep the year-old from Middlesbrough in the competition as she received the fewest votes from the public.
Speaking on The Xtra Factor after the first instalment of the final, Simon Cowell - who left the judging panel this year to front a US version - called the show "absolutely amazing - one of the best finals I've ever seen".
When asked who he thought would win the competition, Cowell replied: "Without a doubt, Little Mix won the night. Sunday's show also featured performances from Westlife, Coldplay and the final 12 X Factor finalists perform a mash-up of some of this year's biggest pop hits.
Fans watching music videos on YouTube and Vevo will be presented with cinema-style age certificates from Thursday. After a year, Matt decided to leave his label, citing that he "needed to be selfish" as One Direction continued to dominate the charts and the label's focus as a result. He has released four studio albums since his win and took the lead role in musical Memphis in the West End in The four-piece girl group were put together by Simon during the audition process, and have become the show's biggest winning act to date.
While others like One Direction and Olly Murs have achieved commercial success, Little Mix broke the mould by being the only ones to win the competition and go on to huge success. They were the first band to win the competition, beating Marcus Collins, and also broke records held by the Spice Girls in the US. James Arthur was crowned the winner of the ninth series of the show after beating Jahmene Douglas. He went on to become the fastest-selling X Factor winner to that date with his debut - a cover of Shontelle's Impossible.
But James experienced the less desirable side of fame soon after he won the X Factor - with several women coming forward and revealing his 'sexcapades' with them, including Ria Vincent and a prostitute who revealed she performed a sex act on James while he kept his socks on.
James was dropped from SyCo in June , but in a first, he re-signed to SyCo Records after he had cleaned up his act. His subsequent album, Back From The Edge, was released in October and also topped the charts - confirming his fans had welcomed him back to the spotlight.
In the live finals, Sam worked her way to secure her spot by fighting off competitors including Sam Callahan, Luke Friend and Tamera Foster. The album reached the top spot of the albums chart in the UK and sold over , copies. In Misha B it might have found a star to rival Leona Lewis.
And, even if the portrait of Marcus Collins rendered in toast and Marmite was a poor replication of last year's majestic Matt Cardle pizza moment, at least it proves that X Factor still has a reasonable level of wherewithal when it comes to food-based portraiture. That said, for selfish reasons, my own personal highlight of this year's X Factor was getting to liveblog with Wagner on Saturday.
Flying that close to such a poetic spirit is something I'll never forget. He made it his own. He reminded me of a little Lenny Henry. If next year's X Factor offers a thrill a tenth as profound as that, I'm sure I'll fall in love with it all over again. The X Factor final: should Little Mix have won?
Little Mix were the best of the three acts to make the X Factor final, but plenty of belters didn't get that far in a weird year.
