‘So excited for what is to come.’
Plenty of X Factor‘s runners-up have gone on to success after the show and now one more looks set to join them.
One Direction, Olly Murs, JLS – some of the show’s ‘losers’ have fared better than its winners thanks to their popularity with fans and we’re betting Grace Davies is hoping that’s the case for her too.
She finished the last series of the show in second place behind boy band Rak-Su but has just been signed to Simon Cowell’s record label Syco.
Grace shared the news on Twitter last night.
So excited to FINALLY officially announce that I have been signed by @syco – my dream ?⭐️

“Grace’s talent shone through on X Factor – not only as a singer but as an excellent songwriter in her own right,” a source told the Sun.
“Everyone is really excited about what she is going to be doing next.
“There is a genuine buzz around her and Syco weren’t going to let anyone else get the chance to sign her.”
The twenty-year-old will join acts like Little Mix, Fifth Harmony, Labrinth and the Liam Payne on the label.
Grace hinted at the news yesterday afternoon, tweeting that she was working on her first album.

She impressed on The X Factor with both covers and songs she’d written herself so we reckon we can expect a fairly interesting first album from Grace.
