Bobby Moore Lower stand regular Louisa Johnson won the X Factor final walking away with a £1m recording contract.
ClaretandHugh sends Louisa our hearties congratulations and as follower Hamburg Hammer says below: ” Good to have another famous Hammers fan now who can spread the word during performances and media appearances.
Plus she is a very lovely young lass with a fantastic voice and also appears to be a genuinely pleasant person. Great stuff!”
Hammers fans Dad Dave and brother Fynn, her regular companions to all Irons home games and were in the audience tonight to support her.
Hammers DJ Leon Hyde was at Wembley tonight with Dave and Fynn telling ClaretandHugh earlier: “I know the family well and it will reflect brilliantly on West Ham. It’s a very exciting evening.”
The 17 year old West Ham fan grabbed the nation’s attention with an unfathomable voice throughout the contest.
Last week Louisa visisted the Hammers first team squad in training. The Essex girl has one other ambition and that is to sing at the Boleyn Ground this season before we move to the Olympic Stadium. In September she tweeted out “I neeeeeeeeeed to sing at west ham before we move.”
Another great thing to happen to our clubs fans
Now let sing on the last day before the Kickoff let the players stand why she sings bubbles
With the fans and some of our past legends it’s what the ground deserves
Cowell must have been relieved that she won with the others her would have done his money now if she can show Cole how not to mime and eat she would be a miracle worker
Great stuff
The only shame is that she wasn’t signed by the West Ham record label like Harper. Still she’s a lovely girl and I look forward to hearing her sing the winning Bob Dylan song at Upton Park.
I saw her last night singing with Rita Ora and she was very good – good luck to her – mind, those other two were cack!
Congrats to Louisa and her family! I’m still convinced she’d still make it as a performer even if she hadn’t won the show, the record companies would still have queued up to sign her up for a recording deal.
Good to have another famous Hammers fan now who can spread the word during performances and media appearances. Plus she is a very lovely young lass with a fantastic voice and also appears to be a genuinely pleasant person.
Great stuff!
