Marsh sang Alanis Morissette's Ironic in the competition

Judge Simon Cowell eliminated the 23-year-old after a public vote placed her among the bottom two contestants of ITV1's celebrity singing competition.

Earlier, Cowell said her rendition of Alanis Morissette's hit Ironic was "a lot better than yesterday".

Marsh, from Oldham, claimed Cowell had thrown her out because she had turned down his amorous advances.

"I kind of expected it, since I turned you down," she said.

The model had been among the two lowest-scoring contestants in the competition for the second night in a row She was saved on Tuesday when TV diet expert Gillian McKeith was voted out.

Magician Paul Daniels and his wife Debbie McGee were the first contestants to leave the show on Monday night.

Among those remaining in the contest - which concludes with a live final on 5 June - are BBC Radio 1 DJ Chris Moyles, ex-Coronation Street actress Nikki Sanderson and rugby player Matt Stevens.
