Holly Willoughby has admitted she 'really fancies' James Arthur after he wooed her with his performance of Let's Get It On on Saturday night.

He wowed judges – as well as making Nicole Scherzinger and Tulisa Contostavlos melt inside - on Saturday night with his version of Marvin Gaye's Motown classic.
And today, while chatting to Xtra Factor host Caroline Flack, Holly Willoughby has admitted she went gooey for his performance too and now has a huge soft spot for the X Factor hopeful.
'It was so good,' Holly gushed on This Morning today. 'When he performed Let's Get It On – I was watching it going, "I now really fancy you" – it was amazing!'
And Flack, who has admitted having a soft spot for 24-year-old Arthur previously, was quick to agree with her.

'Yes,' she said in agreement. 'When I found out that he was doing that song, I knew that he was going to nail it and I was really excited all week for Saturday to see him do it.'
She continued: 'In my opinion, his performance was one of the best X Factor performances I've ever seen.'
Flack, who famously had a fling with 18-year-old One Direction star Harry Styles last year, has previously told Metro of her fondness of James.
Speaking earlier this year, she said: 'When he sings it gets you there and I don't think we've had that before with an X Factor contestant.
'It's almost like you want to fix him a little bit.'
Caroline, 32, also gave her opinion on controversial contestant Christopher Maloney while appearing on the daytime chat show today.
Maloney made it through to the semi-finals last night and has yet to appear in the bottom two despite negative comments from the judges - bar his mentor Gary Barlow - every week.
But Flack moved to offer Chris some words of support as she admitted she feels sorry for him when he is booed each time his name is called to go through to the following week's show.
'There are a lot of boos and I feel really sorry for him when I hear those boos. I do. I think anyone getting booed is horrible.
'He's there on his own, he's in the competition like everybody else, and people are voting for him. He's not doing anything different to anyone else - he's not asking for extra votes, he's not getting any extra airtime, but I think what's happening is people are feeling sorry for him.
'And that's perhaps might be why people are voting, but people are voting.'
