Cher Lloyd has said she was proud of her performance last week on The X Factor when she sung and rapped a version of Dub Be Good To Me.

The 17 year old is currently rehearsing for her second live show, which takes place tomorrow. And she believes she got off to a good start last Saturday.

Cher said: "I'm really, really proud of my performance, I made myself proud and my mentor proud. I got amazing comments on Saturday.

“I didn't expect my performance to go that well because I've had some negative press. It does knock you back. I may come across as a tough cookie, but really I'm just a little scared girl."

In a separate interview the feisty teen also hit back at suggestions she’s just copying her mentor Cheryl Cole.

"I don't model myself on her,” she told Now magazine. “I don't think Cheryl would wear a great baggy tracksuit. I'm my own person.”

This week the hopefuls will sing songs originally by their idols for 'heroes' week.
