She is looking like Fleur now

I'm glad she is building a career - she also starred in Jesus Christ Superstar with Rhydian

Happy that she's getting work, but I would prefer more music. Club Lights and Follow the DJ were decent for self-funded tracks.

Really pleased that she is doing so well. She deserved to go so much further when she was on the show.

yeah she did deserve to last longer

She was unlucky to be in a year where they clearly didn't want a girl to win. And there was that hideous Grace Jones style makeover that was forced on her. Her singoff performance of Stop Crying Your Heart Out is one of my favourites from all the series.

The only girl that was supposed to do well in her year was Stacey Solomon because she had the "Essex" act.

Rachel had a great voice but absolutely, the brakes were put on her winning. I remember her getting some very unfair criticism focusing on her dresses after she delivered amazing vocal performances.
