Alex is fantastic…wow! what an audition. alex has the potential to be as sucessfull as leona lewis. i hope she makes it to the live shows!
August 24th, 2008 at 9:55 am
hey im 25 and when i saw alexandra burke i was so happy she will win in my eyes better than leona but aex is he own person and lets all vote for and all the best alexandra
August 24th, 2008 at 9:58 am
ok tonight was the best night of x factor and alexandra burke made my night she made me cry just seeing her singing she will get live shows anyday and be the first black person to win the dam show and leona is not black thank you
August 24th, 2008 at 10:01 am
if they let alexandra go the i will help with all my links she has to win
August 24th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
I liked her but do not think she will be as big as Leona Lewis, also too early to talk about her winning as there have been others that were good and we do not know what is to come as they seem to be saving 2 or 3 good ones for each show.

Dear Alexandra,
We met on a plane to Barbados and I took some photo’s of you on my way to my daughters wedding. I have lost your contact details would mind getting back in touch with me.
Congrations for Saturday night I know you will do better this time.
Best wishes Peter & Sue.

Dear Alex
You and Melissa sang at my husband’s funeral last December. His name was Gary Little. I am very proud that someone as talented as you sang his favourite song for me, Oleta Adams, Get There. I wish you the best of luck and all my love to you and your mum.

Hey Alex… just to let you no that you are defo going to win the x-factor
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:19 am
This girl is BRILLIANT!! If she doesn’t win the X Factor it will be a travisty! No way should Laura White win she has nothing on this girl… Good on you girl for trying again and you are up there with the best of them, anyone who can sing live as well as you is world class and even if you don’t win you’ll be the one we all hear about in years to come. Girls aloud must of been bricking it singing live after your performance is all I can say, best singer to come out of this country EVER!! Leona is very good but you are something else.. keep it up

Yo i think Larua WHITE is gonna win or should win,
alexander is just a copy cat as simon said. Larua is wicked and i hope alexs gets knocked OUT!!!

Hi Alex,
I saw you tonight on X Factor singing the Britney song which was great. Your second song was fantastic and brought tears to my eyes, who sang the original. you will have to release it on an album and I will be first in the queue to buy it.
Good luck, I know you are going to win it, you are the best by far.

December 8th, 2008 at 7:20 pm
I think alexandra is a great singer, she can move too and has a lovely personailty! i have been her fan from the start of the auditions and i often referred her as ‘beverly knight’ i think her ex boyfriend should get punished for putting her through all this anguish, people make mistakes so lets not judge Alexandras past privite life. her ex needs to get a grip and i hope bad karma comes round to bite him!!!!!

ALEXANDRA is such a superb talent and I hope that her ex’s threats don;t stop people voting for her. We all have histories and regrets. I love you Alex, you’re a beautiful girl inside and out and I knew you were the winner since your audition. You;re a class act – in a different league to Eoghan and JLS. I love you to bits and will be voting for you over and over again on Saturday. Be confident and know there’s a lot of love out there for you. We want you to win!!! Go Alex !!!!

December 18th, 2008 at 1:02 pm
Yoyo! Are U swallowing ur words now? The better singer has been judged the best. The people have spoken! All the best Alexandra, I knew u would make it. Remember , Alex, there are a lot of experiences U can tap on out there in your new world. Be sure to tap the right ones! Think of Victoria Beckham, think of Cheryl Cole, think of Beyonce, think of Queen Latifa, think of the good ones! Remember, the media is always out their on your tail looking for the moment they can catch U unaware and embarrass. I know that they won’t succeed – you’re from a great family!
Congratulations!!!
