The all-Filipino girl group 4th Impact was eliminated from the British talent show ”The X Factor” on Monday (Manila time).
The group and their fellow contestant Lauren Murray fell in the bottom two during the show’s results night, so they had to battle for survival through a sing-off.
4th Impact performed “And I am Telling You” from the Broadway musical Dreamgirls, while Lauren chose “Visions of Love” by Mariah Carey.
When it came to the judges’ decision, the competition went into a deadlock.
Rita Ora saved her act, saying there’s a future for Lauren.
4th Impact’s mentor Cheryl Fernandez-Versini expressed her undying support. “I have a lot of love and respect for everyone on the stage. Lauren, that was fantastic, but my heart and my soul is with my girls.
“I think I’m going to send Lauren home,” said Simon Cowell.
4th Impact was later booted out of the competition by public votes.
Minutes later when cameras stopped rolling, panic arose when one of the girls, Celina, collapsed on stage.
Cherly was quick to call for help, and two producers rushed to attend to Celina.
The group later tweeted that Celina was okay after she was taken care of by paramedics who were always on standby during the series.
Thanks to all who voted for us why we reach this far.Celina is ok now thanks for your prayers and love❤️💛🙏 – love u guys.Lets keep believing
