Laurianna Mae
-Standing Ovation- This was a stunning start to the final! I’m a big Lianne La Havas fan so it’s really exciting to see you perform one of her hits. When I chose you for my top 8 all those weeks ago, I saw something special in you- and Lainey has completely excelled as your mentor. Well done! |

Lauriana
Laurianma first and foremost massive congratulations on making the final three. I quite liked that song and I feel that you brought a new level of emotion to the song and really threw everything including the kitchen sink at that performance tonight. Well done, lets see what the next 2 can come up with to see if they can raise their game also. |

Iris
Iris, again massive congrats on making the final 3. Me and you haven’t been the best of friends throughout this competition, especially at the start. But I really became a fan of yours when your mentor decided to strip back the performances a little. She kept your rock edge but allowed your vocals to shine. This was a great performance, not my favourite of yours but still a great performance. |

Laurianna Mae:-
STANDING OVATION That was completely stunning, I was fixated on you from beginning, middle to end. I think that you have set a really high standard tonight, and will be difficult to beat. WOW totally shocked by that performance. Fantastic song choice |

-Standing Ovation- Iris, I love you to pieces. You’re the voice of this competition and you’ve progressed each week- there’s nothing but absolute perfection within your performances and you’re a readymade recording artist. I want you to win tonight as you have made me SO proud. An amazing performance there. |

Iris:- You out of the acts in the final have probably been on the biggest journey in the competition. You have had some real ups and downs. Tonight Im afraid was a down, I hate to be negative on the final but im going to keep it real. It just didn't do it for me. I was actually bored, and didn;t live upto the standards the final should be showcasing.

Haley
Haley, like the other 2 ladies well done on making it into the final 3. Out of the 3 finalists your voice to me has the biggest impact. I could literally sit all day and listen to your voice singing the phonebook and I am sure I would love it. You have such a stunning voice and I thoroughly enjoyed that performance. I cant wait to hear what the 3 of you have to offer in the next rounds. |

Hayley:- Im not sure on this Hayley, is this really the style that you have showcased throughout the competition. I'm a little disappointed to be honest, it was a little self indulgent, and never really went anywhere, im used to dramatic performances with meaning, and tonight it left me cold.

Haley Reinhart
This was a beautiful stripped back performance, Haley! I would wonder if the pressure of the attention to just your voice with that performance could’ve been relieved had a more orchestrated Sara Bareilles song been used- but it was lovely! |

Lauriana
Lauriana, I will be honest and say I hadn’t heard of this song before your mentor chose it for you to sing tonight. I don’t like having to do this in the final but I wasn’t totally sold on this song choice. Im not saying you didn’t sing it well casue you always sing your songs well but it just seemed strange to me. You looked a little uncomfortable singing it. I wish you the best of luck with the voting though. |

Laurianne:- STANDING OVATION
Yes this is another stellar performance! You are pulling out the stops tonight Laurianne, It was a full on performance, and highly entertaining, you should be incredibly proud of what you have done so far tonight, I believe that you are going to be in the final 2, you have blown the other competition out of the water so far. You have everything, FANTASTIC! |
