I'm in the process of buying a hamster called Simon Cowell and letting it reside in a dog
kennel. It's going to be magical.
We're back at X Factor HQ with the gorgeous Chloe Jasmine and we've got your twitter questions
so we're going to fire them at her. Are you ready?
Ready. Steady. Go!
How did it feel when you were given another chance for the seat?
For the six seat challenge. It felt like it wasn't real. I'd honestly accepted that this
is my fate, I'm off the stage, I'm going to comfort everyone and make sure they're okay
because I do know a lot about rejection, being in the industry I'm in. I was really shocked
and I actually didn't want to take the seat because they all looked so happy and so comforted
and they thought that it'd all been resolved and then they looked panicked. But I was very
grateful, I couldn't believe I'd been granted the opportunity of returning. I'll be back.
Are you still going to be singing? Because I love the style of the music that you sing.
Oh do you? Oh thank you very much mystery tweeter. I don't know, I've never had a lot
of confidence in my vocal abilities. I've always just opened my mouth and whatever comes
out, comes out. Especially if I have a sore throat like the one I have today. There might
be a frog in there, but I haven't seen it. I don't know what opportunities will present
themselves in the future, I mean to take it a day at a time and see what happens.
Now that you have left the X Factor, would you like to record music? Jerome from Manchester.
All these musical questions! I mean, it's a hypothetical question I'm afraid and you
could really want to do something, like you could want to grow a unicorn horn but it might
not be possible, so I think you have to take all things into consideration.
What did you think of your American fans? Did you receive any presents from fans?
Oh. My. God. They're, like, so awesome. Because they're like watching with Access TV and we've
had this really cool woman come round called Stevie, she's been like doing all the media
and stuff. And it's like, whatever! I'm really grateful for the American fans. It's interesting
to see how they approach the show because we speak a little bit differently here and
people really do appreciate British talent. It's such a small percentile. Have I received
any presents? Well, I'll give you my address shortly and you can just send them all along.
Do you think you're "bonkers" as Simon said?
I can't believe he would say I was bonkers. It's very strange. He must have encountered
so many people over the years. I think being exuberant and expressive can be interpreted
as bonkers but if really was truly bonkers, I would be communicating from a padded cell
right now, and I'm not. It's TalkTalk, I'm fine.
Lastly, can you tell Chloe that all America loves her!
Even Texas?
Can you tell us a little bit about being bullied as a young girl because of your accent?
Sure. I think that everyone gets bullied in their life, absolutely everyone. No-one can
say someone hasn't said to them, 'Oh, I don't like your shoes' or 'I'm not quite sure about
that.' I mean, that could be interpreted as bullying. I think it can be very serious,
but one example I gave in an interview, I was on holiday in Greece, people didn't like
the way I spoke and they had my possessions and they snapped my sunglasses in half.
I have attended private schools and when you are in that environment, much like the X Factor
bubble, you don't know what it's like outside that environment so you just consider it normal.
I've worked very hard at school to maintain scholarships throughout the educational process
and I just don't think that it's right to attack someone because they're different.
I think you should appreciate them for being different and admire them because at the end
of the day we really are all different and we live and we die so why not make that time
in between as pleasurable as possible for everyone?
Totally agree, that was wonderful. Thank you so much.
Awesome, I love jellybeans.
