X Factor bad boy Frankie Cocozza partied the night away as he visited Canterbury’s Chill nightclub on Friday.

National newspapers reported the 18-year-old, who was booted off the show last month after allegations of drug taking, revelled into the early hours as he stayed at the city’s Abode Hotel.

Fellow guests allegedly complained about his behaviour while mobile phone footage was released showing the apparent state of his upturned hotel room the following morning.

Frankie, from Brighton, had been brought to Chill for a special one-off appearance by company Student Entertainment.

He even posed with a copy of last week’s Gazette, which featured him on the front cover.

Promoter Vaqas Farook admits he was a firm favourite with the crowd.

He said: "It was an amazing night, the event was a sell out.

"Frankie is a really nice guy, he was very co-operative and did everything to please his fans. Everybody loved him and Frankie took time out to speak to everyone.

"He arrived at midnight and stayed until 3am, sang five songs, did a question and answer session with the DJ and even showed off his infamous seven tattoos on his bottom.

"He had an unusual rider, lots of booze as you’d expect, but he also fancied a curry, which we brought down for him from a restaurant in east London."
