You know.....the girl with the afro in Sharon's category? She's not been shown much but hopefully she'll go far because I think she sings in such a natural way and could go far if given the right songs. She's got a great urban look too so she fits the bill in every respect

She looks gorgeous and has a good voice, I like her. I hope we see more of her because we didn't see her at all until just last week.

Paddy Power has a list of the final 12, not sure if it's true or not but the according to the list:

I love her unique sense of dress, not to mention her voice!

Hope she does well!

I hope she goes through. Very pretty and good voice

I also like the way she has her own style and isn't dressing like all the other girls her age. From what I've heard of her singing she was very good too.

Alisha is my absolute favourite this year. I'm hoping that she can grow and last many weeks in the competition...if she gets through!

She hasn't been shown much so far, so I hope this doesn't go against her if she does get through. Hopefully she get's through and performs well on the live shows.

I hope so too. From what we have heard and seen, I think she can deal with the pressure pretty well. She sounded excellent in the final 12 stage of bootcamp (Well, the 1 sentence we heard her sing!)...I'm looking forward to seeing her grow in the competition as Leona did!

She was good tonight, I really hope she made it.

She was much better than I thought she was gonna be. I want to see her face when/if she goes through.

I love her look and I love her voice. I don't know if the GBP want another black girl to win, but I think she's just different enough to make it a lot further.

If she does as well as Maria Lawson I'll be pleased.

Thanks to the OP for starting this appreciation thred.

Thank you coda

I just hope that she isn't the first contestant eliminated if she does make it.

I quite like this girl, i need to hear her sing a full song but theres defantley something about her that stands out, she grabbed my attention last week even though we barely saw her.

One of the ones im most intrested in at this point.

I love how she looks. Haven't heard much singing though so will reserve judgment.

shes very attractive

I want to like her, i really do. But I like her voice theres just something about her I dont like

I'm the same with Leon

eeeek ! i love her her, and her hair, i hope she wins

I really like her style - she's funky. Needs to tone down the make up a bit though but it's not plastered on as much as Hopes.

She's one of the best in comparison to the other top 12, but she isn't spectacular by any means. I'll reserve full judgement until the live shows though.

She hasn't been shown much so far and so I can see her doing a Dionne and not getting much public support unfortunately.

Am joining this thread, Alisha is definitely one of my favourites at the moment. Go Alisha!

She is my favorite hope she gets far

I like Alisha, she seems to have style and a good voice as well and she is my favourite now that Dominic has been sent home.

Wooooo Go Alisha

She was inspired to audition because of Leona apparently. Hope she does well.

She's got a '1968-era Diana Ross and the Supremes'-vibe going on.
