Cher Lloyd: new X-Factor favourite!

She made the nation fall in love with her with her original and confident audition and with that, Cher is the new ‘next big thing‘.

According to Ladbrokes, the 16-year-old Cheryl Cole-alike is now the 5/1 favourite to win the series, kicking Gamu Nhengu off that first spot – and we haven’t even finished the auditions yet!

Since Saturday’s show, Cher has been a guest on This Morning and found herself famous overnight, telling Holly and Pip that she’s even being recognised in the street.

Liam Payne also stole a few hearts this weekend, and has today snuck right up the favourites list to the number two spot just behind Cher. Check out the stats!
