I'm hoping she raps again this weekend... I think that is one thing that makes her stand out from the crowd the most <3

Something like Crazy Stupid Love or Black Widow would be a good choice for her IMO.

i guess the song choice that she gets given will be the deciding factor to whether she raps or not. Just hope she is given a good song.

Interesting that Fleur has been given the most popular song in the UK atm to sing tomorrow.Maybe the producers will try and keep her in for a few weeks?

I think the public are really going to take to her. Fleur is by car my favourite contestant this year.

Fleur really has won me around with tonight and "Bang Bang". Great and the only one who actually looked like an artist!

I like Fleur and think she has potential. She performed well but I wasn't crazy about the song. I worry for her in terms of getting votes. The way she was dressed tonight was a bit too sexy for your general XF voting audience and she's probably a bit too confident for them as well.

Well that dull song is currently No 1, and you wont win a bean without showing some confidence. She was OUTSTANDING.

I didn't say the song was dull, I just said I wasn't that keen about it for her. I'm not criticising her and I want her to do well, but I'm just saying I'll be surprised if she appeals to the mass XF audience. Imo, she was good but not outstanding. 6.5/10

I found the song choice somewhat ironic

Especially when the Judges complimented her on her abs

Haven't heard the song before...nothing special...but she performed it well. I can see her as a credible artist. Very jealous of her abs though, feel the need to start doing some crunches!

Yeah I mean, why have someone sing about having a bigger, curvier body when she's so physically slim and athletic. I don't know it just felt a bit jarring to me...

The song was chosen because it is a huge hit, and i doubt if they even took one thought about the lyrics. She did a great performance, and that is all that matters.

She made a really sh!t song sound pretty good, as I cannot stick that d'n'b bs. I do like Fleur & just hope that she doesn't keep to this style throughout the competition.

I think you're spot on which is a major issue sometimes with the singer connecting with a song and why X-factor rarely produces greatness.

To give Fleur her due, despite the incongruity of the song choice she really sold it. That is the sign of a great performer.

I enjoyed the performance. I know that we haven't seen the best of her yet. A good dance break would've been cool, but yeah she' still got more to give.

Her voice has really improved to. Since Bang Bangs she hasn't sounded out of breathe like she sometimes did before, she's definitely improved.

I voted with the free app 5 times for her, really want to see her next week.
