Oh God. I really hope they sorted the Capital mess out. Better have a radio 'plugging' budget for the new era.

Omg! Superstar! Slaying wigs left and right with that look!

She needs to keep working her natural beauty!!

She looks gorg. I do hope she appears on the XF this year, just for a medley! She'll vocally slay if they get it right (by that I mean the sound and the song choices and arrangements) - use that range! :P

I'd like her to perform some time on The X Factor to sing Try. I really like the song, and she slays it live from what we've heard. It could be a great little promo single.

Or a medley of Seduce You, Bounty Hunter and Try could be good, though cut out Alex's parents talking in BH. Sorry.

I would AVOID Seduce You. It would ruin her comeback and damage her rep further.

I don't think it would damage her reputation at all. She could use it as the intro. It went down well when she performed it at G-A-Y. Plus the Wretch32 verse could gain her some new fans.

I don't see how Seduce You would damage her at all... I think some people have different ideas here for Alexandra. I've already made it perfectly clear I'm not here for a ballad career. Seduce You is good.

I'd actually like Alex to do something like Katy Perry's Dark Horse. That has some elements of hip hop.

Produced by Dr. Luke. I know I go on about it, but I really think they'd be a great team for Alex to work with. They can really do pop/hip hop crossover tracks....

Alex follows Dr. Luke but I don't know if she's thought about working with him. Maybe we should tweet her? It would get huge hype for her project if he worked with her.

I agree. I've wanted her to work with him for ages. And pretty much all of KP's singles are produced by him and like 8 of them were #1

He produced Wrecking Ball as well. He's had like 20 #1s in total, he's a hit maker, he's worked with 1D, Cher and Leona, so he's not a stranger to X Factor acts...

I think a collaboration between the two would be amazing, even if it was one song. Whenever (if ever) she decides to do another #AskAlex, I'm gonna spam that question. I want it to happen one day.

She's crooning about a man putting it in her, but it did not sound sexy. Ballad career or no ballad career, her best selling single is a ballad. And ballads and mid-tempos sell albums. That's where Tamar got her money. Uptempos can but they have to be right on point.

I agree with what Master Ozzy said about her uptempos, and steering clear of them temporarily until she gets a seriously good one, ie like Overdose.

I want her to shine properly - using all her talents, but Seduce You's lyrics turned me off. The 'seduce youuuu' part was good, but the verses didn't sound sexy. Ciara does that well due to her having a soft/sultry voice.

It's fine for an intro, but I wouldn't want her to sing the whole thing. You have to remember what most remember her doing last, and how it would look to someone who did not know her. If done well it could be great, but if it is not, well...

She looks great.

I want uptempos like Tip Toe from Tamar from Alex, but with a little more aggression.

Also...where is she going?
