Samatha Brooks Performance Summary Age : 31. Auditioned In : North Wales . Song Title : One Moment In Time . Recorded By : Whitney Houston . Available From : Amazon.

Speaking before taking to the stage, Samantha said: “I enjoy working the bar, busy, busy, chatty, chatty and you get lots of tips…everyone you know says ‘buy yourself a vodka’ but I just keep it in my tip jar so I can just get a kebab or something on the way home.

“I’ve decided to audition for The X Factor because I just want to sing and to be honest I’m too thick to do anything else…when I go out on that stage today I’m gonna be nervous and when I’m nervous I talk too much and I think I’ll probably talk more than I sing.”

Samantha then revealed her crush on Louis Walsh, telling him: “I want you! I’ve got such a crush on you,” before she turned around and wiggled her bottom!

After delivering an amazing performance, this is what the judges had to say:

Gary: Samantha, that audition was absolutely amazing…it wasn’t just the big notes, it was the quiet notes too, they were so pure and beautiful, it’s going to be very easy for me…an absolute big yes.
