X Factor vocal coach Savan Kotecha has compared Cher Lloyd to US R&B legend Usher.
The American songwriter has been assisting Yvie Burnett in training and rehearsing with the finalists since they made the live shows and he thinks 17 year old Cher has real potential to be a huge recording artist.
Speaking to The News Of The World Savan said:
“I compare Cher to Usher who I have done a lot of work with. She has all the instincts of a big urban artist.
“She could get a record deal right now. That’s how good she is.”
Despite criticism of her vocal skills and claims that she can only rap but not sing, Savan added:
“She has a fantastic voice. She’s also the sweetest girl but when she gets on the stage she knows how to turn it on.”
Cher wowed Simon Cowell on last night’s show, after he declared her rendition of ‘Stay’ as the best performance of the series. After her song Cowell said:
I don’t agree with Louis, I don’t think that was the performance of the night. I think it was the performance of the entire season. Because you are special, you proved a point this week, you’re not somebody who just does one thing. You’re only 17 years old and that performance, by any standard, was absolutely incredible.
Dannii Minogue added:
Cher there are a couple of performers tonight that have taken the theme and not made it gimmicky and you’re definitely one of them. That was a beautiful performance. What I loved about it was that you’ve come out with a fighting spirit every week but you brought your vulnerability to the stage tonight.
