Tamera Foster suffered a serious case of stage fright during last night’s X Factor when she forgot the words to the Whitney Heuston classic I Have Nothing.
After asking for a couple of minutes to compose herself she ran backstage where her family and host Dermot O’Leary reminded her of the lyrics.
Tamara then returned to blow the judges away with an amazing vocal which resulted in the entire audience getting up on their feet.
Gary said “It was by no means perfect but what we see now is potential beyond belief. That was captivating and mesmerising.”
Louis gave the teenager a massive compliment by saying “I don’t think I’ve seen anyone with the potential you have in 10 years of doing this, not Leona Lewis, not Alexandra Burke. This could be the first day of an amazing career for you, don’t mess it up.”
Tamar gave a stunning perfomance
There is already controversy surrounding the singer as the 16-year old has posted pictures of what appeared to be an unlit cannabis joint and tweeted about the effect of using Zoom, marijuana coated in the Class A drug PCP.
“Woiii I just woke up :O that zoom last night [sic] put me to sleep garddd” tweeted the teenager from Gravesend, Kent. Under the picture on her Twitter account she made several references to ‘Mary-Jane’, a slang term for cannabis.
A programme spokesman told The Sunday Mirror “The X Factor does not condone the use of drugs in any way and appropriate action will be taken against anyone found to be taking drugs while under our care.”
