Can we hand Melanie Amaro The X Factor title now, please?
The season-long front-runner proved once again last night that she clearly has the best voice in the competition, singing a duet with R. Kelly on “I Believe I Can Fly” and matching the iconic artist note-for-note.
She then went with “Listen” for her second cover and even L.A. Reid had to gush. “That was a $50 million performance,” the often-picky judge told Amaro, while Simon Cowell added that Melanie should be the show’s first winner.
We agree. Do you?
