Sorry Lenni i disagree. There have been many people who have sung R&B songs during the xfactor auditions but when the show is edited we see what we are shown. Remember that the first auditions are not in front of the judges, people are selecterd to then go in front of the judges to sing and then we get the edited version of that. If yoy watch the xfactor after Alexandra Bure won you see that the amout of minority singers were limited and the most of them couldn't sing. The show was manipulated for Cher to be a big part, she couldn't just sing that song without clearance
