Celebrity X Factor star Kevin McHale has risked the wrath of ITV bosses by listing his explicit sexual exploits days before the show's big launch.

The former Glee actor is one of the famous faces competing in the all-star version of the TV talent show, which kicks off this weekend.

Kevin, 31, who is in the 'Unders' category was responding to a post by pop singer Jared Gelman, who shared a list of 14 X-rated acts with dollar amounts next to each one.

The list was captioned: "If you've passed $7,000 - you're a demon."

Jared wrote: "Damn I wish I actually had $16,800 I rightfully deserved."

The message prompted Hale to respond with confirmation that he has completed "14/14" - suggesting he has taken part in acts including "sex in public", "threesomes" and "masturbated in public".

Kevin wrote: "14/14, I’m rich!"

When Jared responded by hailing Kevin as "our leader," the X Factor star added: "Slut leader".

The other acts Kevin claimed to have taken part in included: "Sent nudes", "made a video", "took facial" and "ate ass".

Kevin is best known for his acting/singing role on US TV show Glee, while he was also part of boyband NLT.

He released his own pop song Help Me Now in April 2019.
