X Factor’s Sharon Osbourne breaks down in tears following Saara Alto’s incredible performance of Chandelier
The usually talkative judge was left speechless
SHARON Osbourne was reduced to tears on tonight’s X Factor following Saara Alto’s stunning performance of Sia’s Chandelier.
The X Factor judge was so emotional she was unable to give feedback following her remaining contestant’s rendition of the song – which she sang in her first audition.
Saara received rave reviews from the judges, starting with Nicole who told her: “Baby girl. This is song that you sung that blew me away and it’s the reason I asked you to be Mrs O’s wild card.
“I am starting to regret that I chose you as my wild card because you are unbelievable. I have so much respect for you, you are so versatile. Your talent is in the stratosphere and I love a fighter.”
Next Simon said: “Oh bleep. I have got to hand it to you Saara, apart from the silly dress it was absolutely sensational. I admire people who fight.”

He continued: “I thought the arrangement was stunning and I have to hand it to you Sharon you have given this girl the confidence- that’s what is being a mentor is all about. I know how hard you have fought for her.”
Louis gushed: “Saara it is very simple, you deserve to be in the final. You are a world class act. That was an amazing performance. I love everything about you and everybody ‘vote for Saara’.”
But when it came to Sharon, she was unable to say anything at all as she was overcome with emotion.
When quizzed by Dermot about her performance, a very moved Saara said: “That was a moment for me, my hand was shaking throughout the whole song. I was so emotional. I loved every second of it.
“I am so grateful for everybody here in Britain. You have been amazing to me. I am getting these messages from all over the world, and ah I have been working for the last 15 years to get here and I am so happy I took the risk and flew here and I am going to stay.”
Those watching at home were just as impressed with Saara and took to Twitter to declare what a star she is.
One person gushed: “Saara is a true superstar.A legendary iconic queen.She 100% should win the #XFactor 2016.”
Another wrote: “Saara nails ANYTHING she is given and does something different every week. Head and shoulders above everyone #XFactor.”
And someone else stated: “Saara. Has. Got. To. Win. Good. Bye. #XFactor.”
