She really looks like someone (not Cheryl) with the way she smiles and scrunches her face up, but can't put my finger on it.
A bit of Karen Grant (from Brookside) about her too. Thought there was a lot of sound doctoring going on with that audition. |
|
By:
Square, I can't work out who it is she looks like either. Its bugging me.
|
|
By:
She was being ramped on R1 today, seemingly being received as a bit more 'kool' than your usual xf auditionee.
No way I'd consider backing at this stage, smacks of a very well rehearsed audition and she is going to struggle to get wide xf voter appeal imo. A sexed up 16yo! It's a longshot that will know exactly what to do with her, perhaps Camp Rock?? |
|
By:
I agree with the sound doctoring Squares.

I'm interested in this sound doctoring, how do you mean?
|
|
By:
Didn't sound totally "natural", - autotune, etc.

borrowed corins eyebrows
sounded too good to be live, if it was she will go close with some proper eyebrows ![]() |
|
By:
Tattoos are real. 3 at 16? [:o] She does look older though tbf... [;)]
Claiming she wants to be a female Dappy I'm not sure is the smartest of moves either. Although he is a top lad in reality he doesn't have a great public image. |
|
By:
It was interesting to me that it was edited like the crowd received Cher amazingly well, but I can't help thinking that many mums/grans watching would have been saying to themselves that it was too much too young for this kid.
|
|
By:
She looks like Lisa Stansfield in her younger days. Major chance imo.
|
|
By:
Very generous odds Cheps [;)]
![]() Has Tongy himself been trying to get on? |
|
By:
got some on in the high street yesterday at 14s
|
|
By:
More realistic. I think the mentor's attempts to conform her to the XF standards could be cringeworthy
|
|
By:
She had a very good song choice, that's all. She couldn't really sing, her dancing and moves were very awkward even to the extent where I genuinely thought she was one of the joke acts at first. The chavs will lap it up because they've found a song they didn't know about but she'll be found out as soon as she has to do something different.
Don't bet on her! |
|
By:
I certainly think she was better than that description AY. She could certainly belt out whatever it was she was attempting
But power ballads look unlikely to be her 'thang'. And the audience of this tends to prefer allrounders |
|
By:
I am a hardy old pro but this girl brought a tear to my eye.I am convinced she will win and will be lumping on Big Time.
|
|
By:
I am with you acey. Took some 8s with hills yesterday, which I thought was short enough. Market gone mad today though and 7/2 with hills. Ridiculous. Uncanny resemblense to Lisa Stansfield for those of you old enough to remember her!

coming up on TM now

By:
7/2 [smiley:crazy]
[:o][:(] |
|
By:
I don't think she looks like Lisa Stansfield.
I'm thinking it's Michelle Keegan, that bird off Corrie, she most closely resembles. Although she still looks like someone else, esp around the mouth, when she pulls all those faces. Maybe a comedienne or an impressionist mimicking someone. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() THE grand final of Worcester’s biggest singing competition has raised hundreds of pounds for the Worcestershire Breast Unit Campaign. More than 600 people poured into Sin, New Street, on Wednesday night for the final of Text Factor 2010. The crowd, who supported the 15 contestants with posters and banners and voted for their favourites via text message, raised almost £900 for the breast cancer campaign. In return, they were treated to an up-tempo performance by legendary singer Ray Lewis, former member of the Drifters, who helped out with the judging. At the end of the evening Ellice Chidlow was crowned winner. The 18-year-old student from Hereford walked away from the X Factor-style contest with £2,500 in prize money, while runner up Cher Lloyd received £1,000. Miss Chidlow said: “The competiton was an amazing experience and I loved every second of it. “I was competing with some really amazing singers and I just couldn’t believe it when they called out my name.” |

By:
Clearly been noshing off Ray Lewis
|
|
By:
this time last year Danyl was the same price/hype...
|
|
By:
True, but he was patently identifiable as a koont even then. Cher more likely to fall into the Vickers trap imo
|
|
By:
Vickers is, and was always a star. Cher will have to follow this up; time after time time. Has she the staying power? Lets she. I for one do not see this one performance as evdence of improvability and increasing likability. I hope Gamus price drifts way out.
|
|
By:
Oh yep melv, my point was merely that the Vickers style was equally hard to adapt to the format; she was far more talented (from what I can tell)

By:
I will absolutely not be backing this girl.
This is why. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6VMq7c1m6c How come non of the the muso tech heads's are analysing how much of Cher's performance was electronically maufactured. A lot going by the above. |
|
By:
She'll be shovelled into a Cowell group called 'Autotune' nap
|
|
By:
Actually good name for a band. |
|
By:
Initially impressive but won't stay the distance. To win this you have to belt out the ballads and hit the top notes. She's a one note pony. That said I think she could be a big star but she'd have been better off being groomed by some record company and then launched on public.
Bottom line is she doesn't need X Factor. Lay. |
|
By:
Curiously, she'd probably have done ok on that other specials bonanza the mercury prize tonight, given the right material
Wish I could lay her for XF, but I always say that at this time of year |
|
By:
I don't think she looks like Lisa Stansfield. She reminds me more of Cathy Dennis around the mouth area.
|
|
By:
she didnt sing she just talked sh it on a mic. she does look like sum 1 out of a soap or sumert
|
|
By:
She also looks a lot like Ola Jordan.
|
|
By:
yup, can see that in the mouth and facial expressions
|
|
By:
She also looks like Emilia from Big Brother Celebrity Hijack.
|
|
By:
Can't deny she can sing and seemingly from media reports she is liked, but am I the only one that thinks she could be someone difficult to warm too. If she is 16, I hope that isn't a real tattoo on her hand, definite chance of being trailer park and, bad I know, she looks like a goblin.
feck off you clueless coont |
