Career
The X Factor UK
Chloe Jasmine originally auditioned for series 3 in 2006, aged 16, but received three no's in her audition.[3][4] Sharon stated "that she just too young and is not yet ready for stardom" while Simon said she sounds like she was "bred in a laboratory.[3]
In 2014, she auditioned again and this time advanced to the next round. For her arena audition, she performed "Why Don't You Do Right?", Louis Walsh enthused: 'I loved your audition, I love everything about you. I love your name, I love your style, I love the whole vibe", Cheryl Cole said: 'There's something really fascinating and mesmerising about you. You're elegant, graceful, you're like old school Hollywood glamour".[3]
She progressed to bootcamp and was mentored by Cheryl Fernandez-Versini. She was one of the six girls chosen for judges' houses. After her performance at judges' houses, Chloe Jasmine was put through to the live shows. In week 1, she performed Britney Spears' song "Toxic" and was saved by the public. In week 2, she performed "Fame" by Irene Cara, but this time received the fewest viewer votes and was in the bottom two against boy band Stereo Kicks. Only Fernandez-Versini opted to save Chloe Jasmine, with the other three judges saving Stereo Kicks, meaning she finished in thirteenth place.[1]
