Ivy Grace Paredes, originally from the Philippines but currently residing in Dubai entered the X-Factor for the second year in a row. This time, she left the judges, applauding. Ivy sang Whitney Houston’s All The Man That I Need and Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh were in shock by a mesmerizing performance.  Ivy is a 33 year single-mum who used to preform at Dubai’s Comedy Junction.

“That was more than amazing. It was incredible, I mean incredible — one of the best we’ve had.” – Simon Cowell

This is the audition phase as contestants compete to be selected for the ‘bootcamp’ round. The video has been viewed almost half a million times on YouTube since airing on September 11th.

Doing it for her daughter

“For me, I believe this is the biggest competition and I want to be a part of it. And (The) X Factor (UK) can give me the stepping stones I need to do good in the future because this is all for my daughter.”
