Now at its eleventh series, The X Factor’s history has been nothing but eventful. Since the programme’s first broadcast in 2004, we can’t help but love those screechy auditions, the ever-changing judging panel and the fact that the talent show has founded several musical careers in both its winners and losers.

Despite being her first single (save for her crowning track ‘Hallelujah‘) she even manages to grab Flo Rida for the ride.
