\"X-Factor-UK-2013-Winner-Sam-Bailey\"<\/a><\/h1>\n

Prison officer 2 kids mum Sam Bailey a forgotten talent, X Factor UK discover it was a fabulous voice and shone like a star final night.<\/h1>\n

Prison officer Sam Bailey has been crowned the winner of the X Factor<\/span>\u00a02013.<\/span><\/p>\n

Singing her winner’s song, Skyscraper by Demi Lovato, in a floor length black sequin dress, she reduced Nicole Scherzinger and Sharon Osbourne to tears with her emotional performance and attracting over 1 million votes.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

After months of hard work, Sam has earned her one million pound recording deal and a place on Beyonce’s Mrs Carter tour next year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Gary Barlow , who looked like he had shed a tiny tear said: ‘You’ve stolen the hearts of the nation.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘You’ve done this on behalf of people whose dreams have stayed dreams.’<\/span><\/p>\n

A extremely teary Nicole added: ‘You got me looking like a hot mess, the first time I saw you you brought tears to my eyes, and you’ve done it again with your last performance.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

‘That voice is a gift from God and you are the voice.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Timing is everything and this is your time right now.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Louis Walsh said:<\/span>\u00a0‘You deserve to be on that stage, that’s going to be number one record – stop crying.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Lost for words, a blubbering Mrs O, could not even muster up a few words, which led presenter Dermot O’Leary to say: ‘That says it all.’<\/span><\/p>\n

An equally emotional Sam told Dermot: ‘In the time that I’ve bee in this competition I’ve grown not only as a person but in my music.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘There’s one person that’s been so inspirational and that’s Sharon Osbourne and I love her to pieces.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Co-presenter Caroline Flack, who was in the audience with Sam’s family, asked Sam’s son, Tommy, 4,\u00a0 what he thought, to which he said:\u00a0<\/span>‘Mummy’s going to win.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Nicholas put up a good fight, with his winner’s song, Superman by Five For Fighting, but unfortunately it was not enough to earn him the crown.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Mentor Louis said: ‘Nicolas McDonald you came into this a boy and you’ve grown into a man.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

‘It’s been my honour to sit here and watch you grow – congratulations to everything you’ve achieved that song was amazing.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Gary added: ‘What a transformation from the first time we saw you.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘You’ve had tons of experience in this competition – take it and move forward.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Nicole said: ‘M<\/span>y Nicky Blue Eyes – that song was perfect for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Everything is right there inside of you.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘That is the album you will be making and I can’t wait to buy it.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Nicholas added: ‘I just to thank my mum and dad for believing in me.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Reflecting on the series this year, Louis said: ‘We had tears, we had laughter we had madness but I wouldn’t change a single moment.’<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A sad, Gary, who will not be returning next year as he concentrates on making music with Take That said: ‘I’ll be watching at home from next year, feeling a little left out if I’m honest.<\/div>\n
\n

‘But it’s going to be a memorable night tonight – I’m going to sing with my lifelong hero Elton John.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

‘I love the show and I love being on this panel.’<\/span><\/p>\n

All the X Factor 2013 contestants returned to the stage to kick off the show by performing Roar by Katy Perry.<\/p>\n

One Direction kicked off the celebrity performances of the evening, sporting a new rock, grunge look.<\/div>\n

Harry told the screaming audience: ‘Yeah we got Christmas off.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The boys go back on tour in April, starting with South America and then back to Wembley Stadium in May.<\/span><\/p>\n

There was even a bit of drama on the night when longest-serving judge, Louis Walsh was not going to let the show pass by without a dig at Nicole Scherzinger, who completely stole the limelight from duet partner Sam Bailey on the show.<\/span><\/p>\n

When asked by Dermot about what he thought of the duets, Louis said: ‘The highlight was Nicholas and Shane because he let him sing, unlike some people – Nicole!’<\/span><\/p>\n

Sharon added that her highlight of the evening was also Sam’s duet with Nicole.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"X-Factor-2013-Final-Elton-John-Gary-Barlow\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Gary Barlow agreed and added: ‘Absoltuely I thought it was mesmerising.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Nicole was not phased by the comment from Louis, and took it all in her stride simple adding: ‘I love my x factor family’.<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Oh my gosh, sharing the stage with Sam and being up here with my X Factor family. I am going to miss you guys.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Both Gary and Nicole, who don’t have a finalist in the last show, both picked Sam Bailey as their winner, with Nicole adding:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0‘I love both of them but as Sam said last night, she’s been waiting for this for 20 years.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nicholas kicked off the night’s performances with In The Arms Of An Angel by Sarah McLachlan.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Violinists and contemporary dancers performed beside the singer, who looked smart in a tailored black suit.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sharon said: ’17-year-old I love you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gary Barlow also got to sing with his hero, Elton John on the evening, and both sat at pianos whilst they played away together.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Appearing on stage with his ‘lifelong hero’ Elton John, Mr Barlow waved goodbye to ITV show after three years of being head judge.<\/span><\/p>\n

The pair\u00a0 performed Face to Face and accompanied by an army of marching band dancers in matching white uniforms.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the ratings for Saturday night’s X Factor were the worst since the show’s launch in 2004.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The average audience was just 8.5million, including viewers on the catch-up +1 channel, a million lower than last year.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The only time the ratings were worse was when 8.1million saw Steve Brookstein win the show nine years ago.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

The show was beaten by Strictly Come Dancing, which pulled an average of 9.9million viewers.<\/span><\/p>\n
