X Factor sources have been comparing Rebecca Ferguson to former show winner Leona Lewis, saying that the mum of two has a real ‘star quality.’
Tonight Rebecca wowed the judges with Bob Dylan’s ‘Make You Feel My Love’. Dannii Minogue loved her subtlety and said:
An amazing performance, you sang it with such soul. I love listening to you and I also love watching you perform. It’s very subtle, very understated but very passionate and you feel something when you watch you perform.
On her sudden emergence as a front runner, an inside source told The News Of The World: “Like Leona Lewis, Rebecca has come up on the quiet to surprise people. “She is also similar in that she is so warm and unassuming and perhaps doesn’t believe quite how good she is. “But behind the shyness lies real star quality and a voice you just can’t ignore. “And if she can overcome her nerves and self-confidence issues I think she can become world famous. “Last night she turned this into a real competition. It couldn’t happen to a nicer person.”
