#6 – Rebecca Ferguson
It is no wonder Rebecca Ferguson captured the hearts of the viewers. Her sob story and surprising audition piece made her a ‘relatable’ contestant. She lost to Matt Cradle, but was signed by Syco Records immediately. Her debut album called “Heaven” was released in 2011. It is a critically-acclaimed album that has sold 600,000 copies in the UK alone. She also co-wrote the album.
Rebecca Ferguson is also an in-demand product endorser. She is the face of Walkers and Nescafe. Her second album “Freedom” will be released in December 2013.
