Tara is hilarious, i liked how she made fun of her sweating alot. The performance was okay, and at least she didn't do any dance moves tonight.

She is barking mad but highly entertaining.

I have never liked the woman, but I really warmed to her tonight. She came across as very natural, and very entertaining. She really went up in my estimation.

I like her a lot - she's naturally infectuous and funny and I find her immaturity endearing

I liked the sister's description of what Tara was like to live with and wish I could remember it. "Loveable" was in there somewhere, though.

Tara had a few tears during vocal training this morning, feeling she wasn't good enough for the competition, but Carrie was on hand to offer support.
...
See Tara the tortoise.

The students learn you don't mess with dance teacher Kevin when Tara turns up for class wearing some unconventional fitness gear.
See Kevin shows who's boss.

I knew I should have been watching the live streaming.

I adore Tara, and have done ever since seeing how barking she was in ITV2's I'm A Celebrity coverage. In fact it got to the stage where I wouldn't bother with the main show, and just watch the ITV2 stuff.

She is in fact a spectacularly talented pianist, and I really hope she gets a better chance to show this off than she had last night, when she played "Clocks". I just hope it doesn't set a precedent where the others start playing third rate guitar solos in their performances

Tara is the best thing about this show. I wasn't going to watch but I caught her unforgettable rendiition of "I'm Still Standing" and now I can't pull myself away.

I really hope she stays in for as long as possible, I'd love her to win.

Tara's odds have shortened a hell of a lot in the past 24 hours!

Three very different performances, all very expressive. Tonight, she let her own vulnerability show in "Joline", and I thought it was very moving.

Well done for surviving another night, Tara. She's been my favourite since the line-up was announced and think she could possibly be the underdog of CFA. A strong contender for the crown, in my eyes. Currently the 9-2 favourite to win, she must make the final. Go Tara!

Tara! Tara! Tara! Tara! Tara! Tara! Tara! Tara! Tara! Tara

Another good performance from Tara. I didn't think the song was a good choice for her at first, but i was wrong.

I know that Tara didn't hit the high notes, but I don't think I've heard Dolly sing 'Jolene' with such expressiveness.

Seeing her in Fame Academy reminds me why I liked her so much during Im a Celeb. Genuine and as she is. Doesn't seem to put on any sort of act . Her performances have really surprised me.

Tara to win

She made Lesley cry!! I want her to win!

Her sister, Santa Montefiore, is a reasonably well-regarded author. What a name!

I think I may join the Tara appreciation society

I loved her performance last night, you really believed in it and her vulnerability. Even though she just stood still for the ninety seconds and sang it was a powerful, moving performance.

Thanks for pointing that out while I still have time to do a quick edit

(Even then I had to read it a few times to see what you were getting at )

I'm just watching her practise 'Another Suitcase' & if she sings with such emotion tonight, I can see her giving Shaun a run for his money.
