The X Factor continued on with the second week of live performances in another 2-and-a-1/2-hour marathon show. Cher Lloyd certainly stood out this week, whether you like her version of Hard Knock Life or not.
It was certainly a risky song choice, and it must have been hard to switch between the two versions of Hard Knock Life. But I’m not sure she pulled it off, no matter how positive the judges were about her performance.
If I’m honest it isn’t my cup of tea particularly. But then I’m 33-years-old while Lloyd is only 17 and is clearly being produced by Simon Cowell and his cronies to appeal to other 17-year-old. So, good luck to her.
Not that she needs wishing any luck, as I suspect she’ll be in until the end. She’s not the best singer in the competition, but she’s probably the most current act overall, and that means big bucks for Cowell if and when he signs her.
