Cher Lloyd - Music Career

Cher Lloyd had auditioned for The X Factor two times before singing ballads but it was only after reinventing herself that she got through to see the judges. Cher Lloyd has previously performed at holiday camps and said she gets a mixed reaction to her music, but was a big hit with x-factor judge at the time Cheryl Cole. She remarked on their similarity and Cheryl went on to support her throughout the show. Cher Lloyd auditioned singing the Keri Hilson version of "Turn My Swag On". At boot camp she sang a rap version of "Viva La Vida" adding lyrics she claimed to have written herself, but this was disputed and reports claimed she took them from a song by rapper Swizz Beatz. However, Cher Lloyd claims that the full performance was not aired and therefore did not show the lyrics she wrote herself. At the judges houses she performed "Cooler Than Me" but suffered a throat infection and was unable to complete her song. She was given a second chance could not complete the song. Despite this, she was picked as one of the final three girls by mentor Cheryl Cole.

Cher Lloyd sang a rendition of "Just Be Good to Me" in the first of the live shows. In the second live show she sang "Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)". In the third live show, she sang a mashup of "No Diggity" and "Shout", and in the fourth live show she sang "Stay". This was the first time Cher Lloyd did not rap in her performance, and Cowell even called it "the performance of the series". In week five, Cher Lloyd sang "Empire State of Mind", but judges stated that after last week they were disappointed, and Cowell said it was copycat. However, the judges agreed that she redeemed herself with her rendition of "Sorry Seems To be The Hardest Word" mixed with "MockingBird", by Elton John and Eminem respectively, in week 6. In the seventh week, Cher Lloyd was in the bottom two for the first time after her rendition of "Imagine", but Cowell, Cole and Walsh all saved her in the final showdown, resulting in Paije Richardson being eliminated. In the following week Cher Lloyd performed "Girlfriend", followed by "Walk This Way". Both performances were credited by the judges and she was saved by the public vote the following night, securing her position in the semi final. In the semi-final, Cher Lloyd performed "Nothin' on You" and "Love the Way You Lie" and was in the bottom two with Mary Byrne. She was saved by the judges again and put through to the final, even though voting statistics after the show revealed that Cher Lloyd had the fewest votes. In the final she performed a mash-up of "The Clapping Song" and "Get Ur Freak On", followed by a duet with will.i.am, which was a mashup of "Where Is the Love?" and "I Gotta Feeling". Cher Lloyd was then eliminated in fourth place, having received the fewest public votes.
