4th Power Advances to the 'Six-Seat Challenge' of The X Factor UK after Impressive 'Titanium' Performance
Filipino girl group 4th Power (a.k.a. ‘Gollayan Sisters’ in PH), impressed the judges yet again with their version of “Titanium” by Sia during the “The X Factor UK” 2015 Bootcamp.
Based from the judges’ conversation, 4th Power is doing very very good in the competition. Rita Ora believes they are the best compared to everything they’ve seen so far. Simon Cowell was even heard saying “I would love to work with them.”
In the back stage interview, 4th Power said: “We don’t want this to let go, It’s like a dream come true. We don’t want to waste this big opportunity in our life.”
The group advanced to the Six-Chair challenge round. And according to rumors, they’ve made it to the Top 24. It’s not surprising, though, because they are currently receiving a lot of attention from the media and bloggers and their videos on the official “X Factor UK” YouTube channel are the most-watched among any other contestants this year. Their audition video alone where they sang “Bang Bang” by Jessie J, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj garnered a whopping 15,104,532 million views as of this posting.
