Jamie Archer – X Factor
Of all this year’s 12 finalists on the UK’s X Factor, Jamie Archer, aka Jamie Afro, is probably the one to beat.
He gave a stunning rendition of U2’s “With or Without You” during the boot-camp section of the show and his initial audition, where he sang Kings of Leon’s “Sex on Fire” was phenomenal and brought the house down.
At 34 years old, Jamie is the oldest of the contestants, but his age should not be a handicap given his immense talent.
As a pub singer, Jamie is used to performing in public, but not in front of such a massive audience as the X Factor commands. Still, so far it doesn’t seem to have fazed him. He appears to be in his element and is now definitely one of the favourites to win the show.
Jamie Archer to win the X Factor? Highly possible.
