For her big audition on The X Factor UK, Lucie announced that she would sing “I Will Always Love You.” Simon questioned this song choice because it was a huge hit, one that was always sung beautifully by the late great Whitney Houston.
Lucie Jones came from a small village to compete in The X Factor UK in 2009. She knew it was the chance of a lifetime and was ready to show the world her talent. Simon Cowell doubts her after she claims to be singing a huge hit by Whitney Houston.
Lucie remained steadfast with her song choice. When she started singing, she completely proved Simon wrong. She made the crowd stand up throughout the song as she hit every note perfectly. Her family and friends were even more proud backstage and Simon sat with a smirk in front of the judges.
