Former X Factor contestant Misha B – who is about to go on tour in the States with hit pop star and American Idol judge Nicki Minaj – has revealed that X Factor finalist James Arthur reduces her to tears every time she hears him sing.

Misha, who finished fourth on last year’s X Factor – having been the subject of a row between judges Tulisa and Kelly Rowland when the former accused Misha of being “a bully” – told The Sun of James, “It’s so rare that you come across somebody like that.

“He makes me cry every time he sings and his voice talks to me. It’s believable.”

However, having said that, Misha went on to say that she hasn’t watched much of this year’s series!

She said, “I haven’t managed to watch a lot because I’ve been busy. But I see the rolling commentary on Twitter…

“These days you don’t even need to watch the actual show to follow it.”

Erm, I kinda beg to differ…

However, Misha went on to reveal that she hasn’t forgotten her X Factor roots, and is still in touch with fellow former finalists Amelia Lily and Little Mix.

She went on to add, “It’s weird that it’s been a year and now I’ve put out a single and am about to go on tour with Nicki Minaj.”

Here’s a reminder of Misha’s latest single…
