Barlow's X Factor rider includes Wham Bars

Gary Barlow insists Wham Bars are included on his 'X Factor' rider.

The Take That singer is a huge fan of the chewy toffee and sherbet treat and makes sure he always has his own stash of them while he is filming the pop star search show alongside judges Louis Walsh, Tulisa Contostavlos and Nicole Scherzinger.

A source exclusively told BANG Showbiz: ''Gary loves Wham bars, he's had them on his 'X Factor' rider even since the show started and always makes sure he's got a full supply.''

In addition to his work on the judging panel of 'X Factor' and his Take That duties, it was recently revealed that Gary is to team up with Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber for another song

The pair worked together on the official Diamond Jubilee single, 'Sing', last month - which was released to celebrate Britain's Queen Elizabeth's Diamond Jubilee - and its success has inspired them to collaborate again.

Gary has already sent Andrew an outline for one new song and they're planning to continue writing together on holiday in Spain this summer.

Andrew said: ''I am writing with Gary Barlow again. I've come up with the tune this time and he's already emailed me with lyrics this morning. It hasn't got a title yet.

''Gary's going to be down in Majorca this summer and so will I, so we'll get together and something will come out of it.''
