X-Factor bosses were reeling last night after music mogul Calvin Harris stormed the stage unchallenged with a pineapple on his head.
The 25-year-old music-maker burst on stage during Jedward's rendition of Queen's 'Under Pressure' with the fruit on his forehead, apparently to copy the twins famous hairstyle.
He galavanted on stage and slapped his bum before he was finally led off by security.
Bosses are now set to increase the safety measures on the popular show to make sure no similar embarrassments like this happen in the future with a show source saying:
"It was completely unacceptable for Calvin to run on stage like that. It could have been an idiot with a knife. From now on security will be seriously stepped up.
Calvin apologised last night but branded the X-Factor as "stupid" saying: "It's not for my own publicity. I'm not a celebrity - I make music".
"Dancing on stage with a pineapple on your head is a very stupid thing to do, but I also want to suggest that it's a very stupid television programme.
He also mocked the show's security saying: "I was very suprised how easy it was to get up there. If anything good is going to come out of it, they should stick another man in front of the stage."
Show boss Simon Cowell was said to be "not amused" by the incident.
