Who is Louise Setara? X Factor 2018 star through to Judge’s Houses and cleaner from Reading
LOUISE Setara is no stranger to the music business and she actually already has a recording contract.
But, will it be enough to continue impressing the judges?
Who is Louise Setara?
Louise Setara born Louise Smith, August 21, 1988, in Reading, Berkshire, England- is an English singer-songwriter.
Her first album, Still Waters, was released by Manhattan Records/EMI in February 2007.
Setara decided to become a singer at the age of seven, after performing at a wedding party with a member of The Drifters.
When she was fifteen years old, she signed a management contract with Kwame Kwaten, who had worked with Mick Jagger and Seal.
She chose the name Setara, from sithara, meaning "little star" in Punjabi.
For her first audition, Louise opted to sing an original song called A Moment Of Your Time. "I wrote it about a conversation that happened between me and at the time husband," she told the judges.
She made it through this year's Six Chair Challenge, and will sing for Simon at Judge's Houses.
Who are this year's X Factor judges?
The judging panel for the fifteenth series of the show has seen a major overhaul.
Simon Cowell remains but all three other judges have been replaced.
That means that Nicole Scherzinger, Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne are no longer on the panel.
Instead they have been replaced by Louis Tomlinson, Robbie Williams and his wife Ayda Field. Sharon Osbourne will also help out during the live shows.
