'The X Factor 2015' News: Cheryl Fernandez-Versini Is Predicted to Win this Year; '4th Impact' Last-Minute Song Change Paid Off
Cheryl Fernandez-Versini's (CFV) team is still the group to beat this year on "The X Factor 2015." Last night's performance of CFV's group, "4th Impact," has proven that they have what it takes to be this year's champion, despite their last-minute song change.
"4th Impact" sang and danced to the tune of Ariana Grande's "Problem" during the Saturday episode of the show, and wowed the audience. According to The Express UK, the crowd's cheer was deafening, even after the song has ended, and the group was overwhelmed with the public's response. The Filipino sisters were supposed to perform "Shut Up and Dance" on "The X Factor's" first live performance night, but that song did not work out for them. Their mentor advised them to "trust their gut," which led them to change their song.
The all-girl group chose to change their song at the last minute, and it seems like they have mastered the song and choreography right way since they had the judges' approval again last night, according to Digital Spy.

Simon Cowell said that there's no need for him to say anything else since everyone knew that the Filipino act are all great singers. "I have to hand this to you tonight, you've done an outstanding job," the music mogul said. "The song was perfect, the choreography was great, the vocals were fantastic — girls, congratulations," he added. Cowell also commended the group's mentor, Fernandez-Versini, for listening to her team, and allowing them to make their choices.
The Boys mentor, Nick Grimshaw, said that the group's performance was incredible and perfect. "I think you just set the level this competition needs to be at," he said. Rita Ora agrees with the other judges, and also praised the girls' vocals.
Fernandez-Versini said that she is proud of the girls. "Please, you have to stop thanking us — we're thankful to have you," she said.
Watch "The X Factor" tonight on ITV, where the first act will be eliminated from the competition.
