Fleur East sings 'Bang Bang' on The X Factor UK 2014 (VIDEO)

Fleur East sang 'Bang Bang' on The X Factor UK 2014 Judges' Houses.

I absolutely loved this. Seriously, I was so impressed by Fleur's vocal, presence, and swagger here. Much like Simon, I've occasionally struggled to remember Fleur and her past vocals, but this was not only memorable, it was the most current performance of anyone in the category. Fleur just exuded star quality here, and shot to the top of my personal favorites in this category. I think she may have been the contestant Simon was talking about later in the episode while deliberating, claiming "One person in particular really surprised me." He even adds, while deliberating with Sinitta, that there was one contestant he expected would be the easiest cut, only to suddenly find the decision far harder than he expected it to be. I can't imagine who else he'd be talking about but Fleur, given how the rest of the performances in this category panned out.

But what do you think of Fleur East?

FLEUR EAST is through to Live Shows!

Before last night's show, I wouldn't have expected this. But it's absolutely the right choice after what Fleur did yesterday. I'm excited to see what she does in the Live Shows.
