Did Cheryl Cole fart on the X Factor?

A rather unfortunate noise at the same time as a pause in Cheryl Cole’s sentence has left people wondering if she fated during the X Factor on Saturday night.

The noise, which sounds like it was probably her chair squeaking, happened as Cheryl spoke about contestant Cher Lloyd.

We never would have entertained the idea, had it not been for the weird face Cheryl pulls at that exact moment.

It’s rare that the judges blow the contestants away on the show.

Check out the video below. What do you think? Fart or chair?
