Everyone assumes it is just 'Wendy who works at Tesco' who goes to audition for 'X Factor,' and then their lives are changed, wham, like that. Me, I am someone who has tried for years in the music industry.

'The X Factor' was the final push I needed to have the presence and confidence on stage, which I didn't have before. It's a crash course in the music industry. If you can survive the show, you're ready for the industry.

Even before I auditioned for 'X Factor' the second time, I was doing a lot of dance music.

But since I am in the music industry, I don't want anyone to download music, not on September 9th.

Before going on 'X Factor' again, I felt like I'd tried everything else.

Everyone in the music industry is so fun and laid-back.
