For me it really was this week. I'm sure she's a lovely girl but that performance really was painful, turning Grease into a hymn, especially as a "guilty pleasure".

I don't think she improved week on week. There are 3 other acts however, who don't deserve to be there over her.

I think she'll probably do well career wise despite going out early.

It was the week when she did the Minnie Ripperton "Loving You" which was way too old for her and was all about her reaching that high note. I liked it when she did the Take That song "Rule the World".

As soon as she hit the live shows really. She was my standout fave in auditions/bootcamp...then it went downhill.

First live show. She went downhill week after week and was never as good as during boot camp. Hard to say where the blame lies: the decision to slow down her songs to a funeral dirge, or with the vocal coaches.

I don't think she went downhill or anything like that. She was exceptionally good week in week out, whether you liked that style or not.

She has quite a distinctive voice and I think she sang everything well.

She is a singer-songwriter (in style at least) type of artist and there doesn't appear to be much love for that sort on here.

I think she could do very well in the future potentially, but its a real lottery so anything could happen.

After a couple of weeks I began to find her performances boring, dull and predictable... it appeared like she was undertaking some sort of sterille music/singing exam, kind of just plonked their delivering a set-piece of compulsory elements: this note - check, that note - check, warble - check, long queaky note - check...... and finish.

This for me too. The 'high note' is supposed to be someone ecstatically happy - to me it was 'hey look what I can do'

Hmmm about the 2nd/3rd week. She went way down hill since. Fireworks being her worst by far.

About 2-3 weeks ago, ironically it was just when Jahmene took her spot at the top of the betting.

This week was her most boring yet though, even though it was probably technically superior to some previous performances.

I've never gone off her, it just came to the point where some of the other contestants were outshining her.

Glad she'sleft, she's far too good for this format show.

I just couldn't associate her with a 16 year old girl, she had totally the wrong image, styling and songs for one that age. Maybe she should come back in maybe 3-4 years time when she has more experience of life and understands what she's singing about?

Just did nothing for me from the get go frankly.

She never lived up to the promise from the Believe performance at bootcamp.

If she hadn't done that performance at bootcamp, I don't think her exit would have been a shock.

Once she started using her falsetto rather regularly (after she hit that Minnie Ripperton note), it never flowed well from her usual voice and seemed clumsily planted into songs for the sake of showing off her range.
