Alexandra Burke has admitted that she would love to join the X Factor judging panel on a full time basis.
The former winner of the ITV show stepped into cover for Kelly Rowland for one weekend of last year’s series and liked it so much that she has confessed she would jump at the chance to do it again.
Little Mix and Alexandra Burke took to the stage in London last night, as part of the lineup for the annual Tickled Pink charity concert.
The X Factor stars performed a variety of songs at the “Girls’ Night Out” concert for the Breast Cancer Care charity, of which Burke is an ambassador. When accepting the role, she revealed that she felt a strong connection to the cause, after her aunt Jean died of breast cancer.
The big X Factor chart battle normally takes place around October / November each year however it looks like there may be another big competition taking place in just a few weeks time.
Former stars of the ITV show Alexandra Burke, Little Mix, Cheryl Cole and Leona Lewis will all reportedly be releasing new music this March and will go head to head in the UK charts before Easter.
Alexandra Burke has admitted that her record label have decided to delay her new single…. again!
The former X Factor winner had been expected to release ‘Elephant’ in late 2011 but recently it’s release date was confirmed as February 26th. However RCA has now decided to push the date back to March. Alex announced the news on Twitter saying:
“OK… SO ONE MORE THING TO TELL YOU ALL …MY SINGLE RELEASE DATE HAS MOVED 2 MARCH 11TH 2012. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD GUYS… !!!! ELEPHANT IS NOW OUT ON THE 11TH MARCH!!!! (sic)”
Alexandra Burke admitted that she is hoping Kelly Rowland takes sick again, or falls off a cliff, or gets stuck in bad traffic, because she wants to take her seat on The X Factor judging panel for a second time.
The former winner replaced the Destinys Child star on the ITV show a few weeks ago, when the brunette beauty took ill and was advised by her doctors to stay in America until she recovered.
The Xtra Factor panel were in total agreement last night, for probably the first time this series.
On the ITV2 X Factor spin off show, DJ Johnny Vaughan, Westlife star Kian Egan and former show winner Alexandra Burke were invited on to give their opinions on the night’s performances and they all agreed, Marcus Collins and Little Mix totally slammed it!
Janet Devlin celebrated a return to form on tonight’s X Factor show but Alexandra Burke doesn’t think she’s done enough to establish herself as a front runner.
The 17 year old singer wowed the judges with her take on Sixpence None The Richer’s ‘Kiss Me’ and even Gary Barlow praised the performance afterwards.
However, speaking afterwards on The Xtra Factor, Alex claimed that Janet needs to move out of her comfort zone if she wants to keep the public interested.
Alexandra Burke has admitted that she thinks Misha Bryan’s new look really suited her on last night’s X Factor show.
The Mancunian singer wore her hair loose for the first time on the series and opted for a more normal outfit of trousers and a fitted jacket, instead of the crazy creations she has modelled in previous weeks.
Former series winner Burke thinks it worked and told Misha:
Misha Bryan has admitted that she was stunned when she found out that she would be mentored by Alexandra Burke last week.
The X Factor contestant was left leaderless, when Kelly Rowland took sick in America and was unable to fly back to the UK for the live shows. However, at the last minute former show winner Alex stepped in and Misha was elated with the producers’ choice.
She told ITV.com:
Alexandra Burke has admitted that Misha B may have ended up in the bottom two on last night’s X Factor results show, because of personal comments which were made about her last week.
Both Tulisa Contostavlos and Louis Walsh attacked the Mancunian contestant last Saturday and instead of critiquing her performance, accused her of being ‘mean’ backstage and a ‘bully’ to other contestants.
They have both tried to play down their remarks, but speaking on tonight’s Xtra Factor, after Misha was saved from elimination by the judges, Burke insisted that people need to stop voting based on personalities.
