"X Factor group MK1 have labelled Lucy Spraggan as &amp;quot;grumpy&amp;quot;. The axed duo have criticised the singer-songwriter for being difficult backstage, saying that it was hard to get to know her properly.   Simeon Dixon told BBC Radio 1Xtra&amp;#039;s Sarah-Jane Crawford: &amp;quot;Lucy Spraggan had so many bad days and it was hard to try to connect and talk to her.&amp;quot; Charlie Rundle agreed, saying: &amp;quot;She sounded a bit grumpy. Don&amp;#039;t get me wrong, she&amp;#039;s talented. But a smile wouldn&amp;#039;t go amiss, if you know what I&amp;#039;m saying.&amp;quot; MK1 have previously named Chris Maloney as the show&amp;#039;s biggest diva behind the scenes. Reiterating their point, Dixon added: &amp;quot;Chris had a tendency of being a little diva, but he&amp;#039;s a cool guy.&amp;quot; The duo have also labelled judges Gary Barlow and Nicole Scherzinger as &amp;quot;rude&amp;quot; for talking during their sing-off performance.
