She was AMAZING last night. Easily the most talented singer and performer left in what has been a dire year.

Beauty.

Has there ever been a foreign X-Factor winner?

Think Honey G has this fixed to win though.

Probably not. Saara is by far the best singer, hands down.

Her name is Saara, NOT Sarah

She wasn't wearing a dress last night, Saara was wearing silver lame leggings & mirror basque 🙄

What ever Sara was wearing it looked ridiculous.

So she is through I found her rather inconsiderate to the others when she leapt up screaming her head Jumping up and down.

It's Remembrance Sunday too a bit of respect and dignity wouldn't go amiss

Yet Honey G was not only waving her hands about like a ****** during the group performance, she also had an over the top reaction to getting through.

Bore off and find a better hobby.

So if Emily is getting a de-ramp she could quite easily slip into the bottom 2 with Ryan next week- The lovers sing off? They'll probably want to start to derail Honey G as well-Do we think Saara could survive until Semi Finals? Then all bets really are off in a pure public vote? Come on Saara!!

Glad she got through, it was well deserved. She's the only one I really look forward to watching. IMO she has the best voice, she's able to dance and she truly embraced the theme. She was brilliant last night and the stand out performer. Think she was in the top 2 in the voting this week. Looking on social media, she's gained a lot of support this week.

They said, about the voting, that the top 2 had never been in the top 2 before. It wouldn't surprise me at all to find that one of those was Saara.

Which would be some achievement, being first on and in the Strictly overlap. Let's hope she can keep up the momentum

Given that it was Disco night, the costume she was wearing fitted in with the theme. It was also a vast improvement on what she was made to wear last week.

What I like about Saara is that she is willing to deal with whatever daft themes/costumes/staging are inflicted on her, and do it with enthusiasm and a smile. She also has the ability to really work the stage and give a full-on performance, something that many of the others have struggled with. On top of all that, she has a fabulous voice, and has shown that she can sing softly and take it up to a full belt.

As for her reaction to getting through - I think it's easy to sit at home and comment on how the contestants announced as safe should react, but I'd imagine that it must be pretty tense and emotional waiting to hear their fate, and there's no instruction manual that tells them how to react. It also doesn't help matters that the XF bods allow the results announcement to be so chaotic, with the audience baying and Dermot taking an age to announce the names (which isn't his fault, as he is told via his earpiece). When you factor that in, along with Saara having never before been announced as safe first, no wonder she reacted the way she did.

With regards to it being Remembrance Sunday, the group song at the beginning of the results show was the acknowledgement of that, and Saara sang beautifully at the beginning of the song.

Yeah I didn't like the dress, however, Saara was by far the best again tonight, I have voted for her.

Would love to see her perform a Kate Bush number on the show. Almost certainly never going to happen though.

I watched with my family this week (who normally detest XF but I wanted to see Saara) and they all said she reminded them of Kate- I think she would be fabulous at Wuthering Heights ofr Running up that Hill(Technically 80s songs no?)

She's done exceptionally well to get this far against the odds and I want her to go a bit further so badly
