Stacey Solomon appeared live on the X Factor for the first time last night, with a completely new look. I hardy recognized her after her makeover with that fringe. Very sixties!
Stacey is obviously a very sweet girl. Even from just watching her on the telly, you can see that people warm to her immediately because she doesn't have any airs and graces, and (despite the makeover), what you see is what you get.
On last night's show, Stacey Solomon sang a fairly stripped back version of Coldplay's “The Scientist”. Interesting choice of song and not one that I would have expected. Her voice was a little shaky at the start, probably due to nerves, but got stronger as she went on.
All four X Factor judges gave Stacey's performance the stamp of approval and (fortunately for Stacey) none of them mentioned the shakiness.
Louis Walsh told Stacey that everywhere he goes, people ask him about her, so she's obviously made a connection with the public. Cheryl Cole called her a genuinely lovely girl and Simon Cowell (not for the first time) told her that she doesn't know how good she is and that the song choice was genius.
So we've heard Stacey Solomon sing a few ballads and slower numbers now. If she's as good as we all think she is, then I'm looking for her to kick things up a gear and sing a couple of more up-beat numbers as the X Factor finals progress.
