X Factor singer Chloe-Jasmine Whichello turned down a role in hit series Game Of Thrones to compete in the reality show.
The 23-year-old hopeful was chosen by mentor Cheryl Fernandez-Versini as one of three female singers to go through to the live shows in the
Girls category but received a mixed reaction from fans in the initial stages of the competition.
A spokesperson for X Factor confirmed to
Digital Spy that Whichello had been offered "a very small role" in Game Of Thrones but was forced to turn it down as it clashed with the demands of the singing contest.
