X Factor's Raign 'Had No Idea' Cheryl Disliked Her

Singer says Mrs. Fernandez-Versini is entitled to her own opinion, adding she was a fan of Chezza's tune 'Call My Name'...

X Factor contestant Raign has revealed she had "no idea' that judge Cheryl took a disliking to her.

The 31-year old - who missed out on a place at Simon Cowell's Judges' Houses - told Digital Spy: "I literally watched that on the television with the rest of you. I had no idea.

[related]"Obviously when you go on a show like this, you go out to be judged, and Cheryl is a judge. You have to prepare yourself in advance for the fact that not everyone can like what you do. And that's fine."

She continued: "Cheryl's comments - I only heard what she said directly after each performance. All the rest of it, I didn't even know was happening until I saw it on TV."

When asked if she was "upset" by Chezza's negative response to her, the singer replied: "Everyone is entitled to their opinion and I went on the show to be judged. You just can't take it personally. It's her opinion."

As for whether she would ever purchasea record by Mrs. Fernandez-Versini, Raign said: "Yeah, of course. I tend to lean more towards London Grammar and Florence + the Machine type music, but I definitely was a fan of Call My Name.

"I don't like to make an opinion on people unless I get to meet them properly and really get to know them."
