Did Nile Rodgers snub Cheryl?
Musician Nile Rodgers caused a stir on Sunday night when he seemingly "snubbed" singer Cheryl after her comeback performance of new single Love Made Me Do It at reality show The X Factor.
The Chic star, 66, was seen leading back in his chair while fellow mentors Simon Cowell, Louis Tomlinson and Ayda Field leapt to their feet, reports by media.
Viewers took to social media in their droves after the camera focused on the music legend.
One tweeted, "Love how Nile Rogers sat down for Cheryl's 'standing ovation'" while a second joked: 'Nile not giving Cheryl a standing ovation the shade #xfactor."
Viewers were quick to share memes of the situation, joking that Rodgers was "literally everyone at home".
Others were outraged by the reaction, with one posting, "Nile did not stand for Cheryl! Did he not get the memo? Judges must stand for all guests even if they've never heard of them. If they don't, it's downright rude."
MailOnline has contacted Nile's representatives for comment.

Amy Schumer back to work
Actress Amy Schumer has returned to work after her recent hospitalisation.
The 37-year-old comedienne, who is expecting her first child with husband Chris Fische, was admitted to a medical center for hyperemesis gravidarum, or severe nausea and vomiting, reports of leading publication.
Schumer performed a comedy show at the New Jersey Performing Art Center a few days ago.
After her performance, the Trainwreck actress took to Instagram and wrote, "Thanks for bringing me back to life Newark (something no one else has ever said)."
The event was originally supposed to take place in September and was later rescheduled due to a scheduling conflict for Schumer.
I experience identity crisis to a massive extent: Actor Ezra Miller
Ezra Miller feels it is easy to lose the essence of one's own identity in showbiz. The Fantastic Beasts star admits he experiences an identity crisis, and says that being in the industry highlights the problem like a "terrifying pimple".
Miller is back as Credence Barebone, a young introverted man who is also an Obscurus, in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald. Along with the magic and the beasts, the film is about Credence's journey to find his own identity, and struggling with it.
Asked if he has identity crisis over being an actor and living someone else's life on camera, Miller told leading publication in an exclusive interview here, "I definitely experience that to a massive extent."
"I think being someone who professionally participates in the presentation of identity only exacerbates the problems with identification, which we all already have. It kind of brings it forward like a terrifying pimple," added the actor while looking at the ceiling of the posh hotel here.
"It reveals what people are going through with their identification to become so-called famous or celebrated celebrity. And I have experienced that. I went through my wild bouts of experience with that," he continued, before explaining his way of dealing with the problem.
"The key for me has been that the lesson in martial arts that I received... The open hand is more powerful. In terms of identity and belief, let go. Like your attachment to the things in the world.
"You don't have to be so attached to them to love them. You don't have to be so attached to them to care for them. It is not what care is. It is just attachment. You are just clinging on because it is scary to let go because out there is grey and cold ocean."
Hailing from New Jersey, Miller has also been part of projects like The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Trainwreck, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad.
He has been embracing the dark world with Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald -- the Warner Bros Pictures project opened in India on 16 November -- is the DC Comics' new superhero The Flash and a queer icon for many across the world.
Do you think you have made an identity in Hollywood?
"F*ck identity," he said.
"Like it is useful to create a space for oneself as oneself, whatever that expression is at the given time. But from a different stand point, we can never satisfy the thirst of our spirit with a single confined identification."
Miller finds it "fascinating that we all naturally see to limit each other for the ease of our own minds to reduce everyone to the lowest common denominator".
"The label common denominator... It is unfortunate. It is probably the most unfortunate natural tendency. Human beings are cool because we can actually choose which natural tendencies we want to foster and bring to the surface of our perception and engagement. But we have just unfortunately chosen the worst ones," he said on a philosophical note.
Belief, he pointed out, is "very dangerous".
"It is such a volatile power... So strong... I think identity and belief are interlinked because people want to feel in this confusing mash up of subatomic particles, a clear and identifiable and understandable purpose and titular identity for existing.
"And there are lots of salesmen who are ready to give it to you for the right price, which usually involves your integrity, maybe your life, your safety, your soul."

Demi Lovato hits back at fan
Singer Demi Lovato slammed her fan who accused her team of being 'rotten' and 'pretend friends'.
The 26-year-old Sorry Not Sorry singer took to Instagram to address a comment levied by a fan, reports of media.
"The demi team is so rotten and she does not realise it, needs a total change, mainly from dancer pretending to be friends," wrote the fan.
Lovato then responded in the comments of the post, which was actually an image of a similar tweet the user had shared earlier.
"You have no idea what you're talking about," said the singer.
A second cryptic response read "true friends don't do interviews about you when you OD".

Jordan, Munteanu fight scenes were musical: 'Creed II' director
Director Steven Caple Jr. says fight scenes between Michael B. Jordan and Florian Munteanu while shooting Creed II seemed musical.
Creed II is a sports drama film, which will release in India on 30 November.
"Mike and Florian were so good at the boxing scenes, that you forgot what they were going through to get there. Remember, this is the opposite of actual boxing, where every punch has a consequence and emotion behind it," Caple Jr. said in a statement.
"While Mike and Florian were always trying to be in tune with that realism, they were also trying to memorise the choreography, know where the camera was, and time their punches to make sure they're in each other's faces - while, of course, avoiding connecting. So, it was like a dance. It felt like a musical," he added.
The director says it "was tough and hard on them".
"They gave me their all. A lot of punches were thrown -- and a few did connect. I owe Mike and Florian because I told them that every time a punch slipped through and hit them, I'd take a few myself. I think I owe Mike three punches, and Florian nine. But Florian doesn't count because he's so big he can eat punches."
Creed II is a sequel to Creed and the eighth instalment in the Rocky film series. It also stars Sylvester Stallone, Tessa Thompson, Dolph Lundgren, Phylicia Rashad, Andre Ward, Wood Harris, Brigitte Nielsen and Milo Ventimiglia.
Stallone and Lundgren are reprising their roles of Rocky and Drago from the film Rocky IV.
Ryan Coogler, who directed the first franchise of Creed, returns as an executive producer on Creed II.
The film, being brought to India by Warner Bros Pictures, follows Adonis Creed training in order to defeat the son of Ivan Drago, the powerful athlete who killed his father in the ring more than 30 years prior.
