'Can you shut up for a second!' Chris Isaak gets into heated row with James Blunt on X Factor Australia... forcing host Luke Jacobz to intervene
Last week, tensions were high on The X Factor between coaches Dannii Minogue and James Blunt after he told her she didn't 'take criticism well.'
And on Monday night's rock themed episode, James found himself in another heated argument with another fellow coach, Chris Isaak.
The pair had divided opinions over Chris's song choice for contestant Cyrus's performance, with James accusing Chris of 'cheating'.
Chris then quickly blasted James, telling the Brit to 'shut up' several times during their verbal stoush.

'James can you just shut up for a second!' On Monday night's rock themed episode of the X Factor, James Blunt found himself in another heated argument with a different fellow coach, Chris Isaak
'James can you just shut up for a second!' Chris told his co-star.
'I'm talking – I don't want to hear your gags right now!'
The row between the pair became so heated that host Luke Jacobz had to intervene, saying: 'Let's finish this in the ad break.'

Cyrus's rendition of Lenny Kravitz 'It Ain't Over Till It's Over 'had the judging panel divided as they criticised Chris for his song choice.
'That was the worst I have seen you perform,' Guy said, adding: 'It was 'just a terrible song.'
Summing up Cyrus's performance, Guy told Chris he did not select a rock song.
'I don't know how anyone could look at that song for rock week ... that was a really bad cover version,' he said.
Divided: James Blunt's comments led to Chris telling him to 'shut up' several times during the verbal stoush
'I'm afraid to say, I think Guy's right, it's a soul-funk song, not a rock song,' the UK balladeer said
UK balladeer James had a similar line of thought, saying: 'I'm afraid to say, I think Guy's right, it's a soul-funk song, not a rock song.'
'I don't want to call you a cheat, but I think Chris is cheating,' he said to the performer.
'If I were in a restaurant and you wanted a burger and they bought out pudding, I would say "where's the meat?",' he joked.
Tensions: Chris didn't appreciate the feedback directed towards him and things got heated between the pair
'To hear James tell me what rock and roll is... I don't know what they pass as rock and roll at the disco in Ibiza, but that was rock and roll!' he said

'To hear James tell me what rock and roll is... I don't know what they pass as rock and roll at the disco in Ibiza, but that was rock and roll!' he said.
James then continued to joke, asking Chris to show the audience his trousers.
But his humorous attempt was interrupted by Chris who told him: 'Can you just shut up for one second! I'm talking!'
Vocal: Cyrus's sang a rendition of Lenny Kravitz It Ain't Over Till It's Over
Not his best: He had the judging panel divided over his performance and song choice
The coaches then continued to debate what constituted a rock song and criticised each other about song choices throughout the night.
James and Chris also butted heads over James's contestant Natalie Conway's rendition of Heart's Alone.
'As a mentor I don't think I would have given her that song,' Chris said. 'It's just a series of high notes and I want to hear the story too,' he went on.
'My criticism is less to you and more to him,' he said looking towards James.
Appearing slightly annoyed, James plugged his contestant saying: 'If it's a pop star they are looking for, she's standing in front of you.'

The coaches also copped a caning on social media over their song choices.
Interestingly, Guy, who last week got in a Twitter stoush with a former contestant about song selection, was bagged the most.
Duo Matt and Jess sang Temper Trap's Sweet Disposition while his boy band In Stereo sang Demons by Imagine Dragons.
'Sweet Disposition is not rock, come on,' tweeted one viewer.
Karen Smith wrote: 'Its obvious rock is not #guysebastian strong suit. His #xfactorau contestants sang pop anthems, not rock songs.'

A lot of show's fans on social media said most of the songs were either pop, ballads, funk, soul and even R&B, but not rock.
Chris's under-25 boys singer Tangaroa Te Tai, aka as Big T, opened with Led Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love and James's brilliant over-25 star Louise Adams closed with Aerosmith's Dream On.
'The show started with rock and finished with rock. In between wasn't,' tweeted Colin Magann.
Tony van Eyk summed what a lot of fans were basically tweeting: 'Worst so called #RockShow ever on #XFactorAu #Fail #PickBetterSongs.'
