Though armed with the benefit of ‘The X Factor UK’, Brit belle Tulisa has oft struggled to prove her worth as a ‘high end’ act since joining the series last year.
Indeed, though she stands as a far better vocalist than one time judge Cheryl Cole, the ‘Young‘ singer’s undeniably ‘basic’ demeanour has seen her fall short of winning the support afforded to Cole by both the press and the general public during her time on the show.
Now watch her perform her latest single ‘Sight Of You’ on tonight’s episode and let us know what you thought of it below…
Well…
Though not as underwhelming as her critique on the show, this performance says all it needed to say about Tulisa’s positioning on the UK Pop scene.
A positioning, that crumbles when stripped away from the smoke’n'mirrors she believed would take her to the top. Unfortunately, after this set, the only place we see her heading is her local job centre when her debut album crashes and burns upon release.
A little harsh? maybe. However, we’d challenge anyone to convince us that Brand Tulisa and the above performance is and was anything but highly endorsed trash.
So with that, here’s hoping 2013 sees the continued rise of the Emeli Sande‘s and Jessie J’s of the world, and less of…the above.

She killed it, better than Kelly’s flat vocals last year. Another #1, something Kelly couldn’t achieve even though she was seated on the biggest show in the UK week after week.
Love Tulisa, The Female Boss is most definitely going to sell. It’ll in fact do better than Here I flop in the UK.

Alicia Keys entered the UK charts at #15. This is not so good news I guess. Anyway I expect the Female Boss to be #1, go Tulisa.

Flatter than the floor boards on my floor.
Bring back Little Mix because Tulisa sounded best when she was with them.
If she calls the Job Centre tomorrow her claim for JSA will be dismissed on being a fraudulent singer.
Room for improvement but Pink showed her how soloist really do it!

Yes Kelly was in one of the biggest girls bands in the world, but only as a back up singer to Beyonce. Kelly will never have success the poor sole, Tulisa can sing, despite this song not being we best, at least Young went to number one with next to nothing promo, whatever Tulisa sells, it will be a lot better than Kelly who is worldwide known. And Kelly blatently mimed when she performed on xfactor, at least Tulisa gave it a go and sang LIVE!!

Don’t u ever think about trying to compare Kelly Rowland to a Tulisa tht bih doesn’t hold a candle to Ms Kelly! Kelly is an icon! She was apart of one of the biggest girl bands in the world! So what if she she was not the lead vocalist in DC and your point issssssss????? Just know that Kelly was the 1st DC member to have major success outside her group. That group was built to make Beyonce a star not Kelly her label nor management never supported her projects like her other memebers of her group! Thats why she eventually split from her manager. Through all of that…16 year later she is still in the game and still holding her own as a solo star in her own right. As for Tulisa’s performance it speaks for itself! TERRIBLE! For her to sit behind those chairs and judge someone elses performances and vocals and you aint even no where near as great as most of the contestants on the show thts pretty awfull! Kelly performed her behind off last yr and gave a great performance! NO COMPARISON! I guess bashing Kelly makes sum of you feel better about tht awful Tulisa performance!

Boo u really need to get a life! I guess this website is your life! All the Kelly shade aint doing you no good! If u wasn’t checkn for Kelly you wouldn’t be on every danm post of hers spewing hate towards her! & her DC past his old. Most ppl have moved on from that! Geeettt Oveerr it!!! PPL that put others down usually have insecurities and the last time I checked she was still the R&B “IT Girl” she was asked by several rappers to be on their records which happen to all be doing pretty good. So again….. no matter what u say to make yourself feel good she’s still winning!

There is a positive, she sounded the same as on the record so if you like her voice you’re its good, but as i don’t like her voice on both recordings and live she is a strained mess. As for Simon Cowell why would he sack her? he had Cheryl before and signed Cher Lloyd and took her international and are they any better or worse?

personally i thought she sounded great, i’ve always loved Tulisa’s voice, its edgy and soulful, she can sing, im not a big fan of the song but it sounds better live, Young was a great single, if she picks the right songs she’l keep growing and for all the doubters just remember N Dubz will make a comeback and i garantee you they will be bigger than EVER

There is NOT ONE THING soulful about her voice, unless you count singing from the depths of her nasal bridge.
