I like X Factor’s Niki Evans. She has a great voice, good stage presence and looks very well. However if I have to hear about her dead dad once more, I will cut my own eyes out!
I sympathise with Niki, I really do. Most of us have lost people close to us and its an heart breaking and harrowing time. But why share it with the nation week after week?
X Factor insiders have revealed that on this week’s show Niki will be singing ‘Fields Of Gold’ and apparently this a song really close to Niki’s heart, not only was it the song she sang at her first audition but it was also the first song she heard after her Dad passed away. The song therefore holds a lot of emotion for Niki and after almost breaking down on stage last week she is hoping she can keep it together this week.
Cue another VT, shamelessly tugging on the heart strings of the British public and loads of close ups of Niki’s mum crying in the audience.
I would love this years X Factor winner to win because they can sing, not because of whatever story they (or the producers) are pushing. Is that too much to ask.
One week could we just see Niki out having fun, rehearsing for the show and being, shock, horror, normal? It would make such a nice change!

We love watching Nikki sing. She has a wonderful voice and she makes you want to watch her.
I think people are being a bit judgmental regarding her memory of her Dad. Give her a brake…. how would you feel?
Niki only comments about her dad because she wants people to know how much he means to her and how proud she is that she is fianlly doing what he always wanted her to do.

[...] More backstories: I like the idea of this, as long as they can stay away from X Factor style sob stories. [...]
