ALSO: BEYONCE IS LEGENDARY!!

Pop superstars Beyoncé, Boyzone and Westlife made surprise appearances earlier in the night to lend the three finalists their support.
Beyoncé appeared from backstage to riotous applause to duet on her song Listen with Alexandra.
The two girls gave everything they had, but the experience proved to be a little too much for starstruck Alexandra, who began crying.
She tearfully told the legendary U.S. singer: 'You've made my dreams come true.'
Beyconcé told host Dermot O'Leary: 'She's a superstar. She's such a beautiful young lady.'
Beyoncé comforts a tearful Alexandra after their duet
Beyoncé later performed her latest single If Were A Boy, her powerful voice showing why she's one of the most successful singers in the world

Hallelujah Alex Won!!!!

Her and B's performance was just so rated! They smashed it, especially B! And did anyone watch Xtra Factor where Alex said she asked B if she could be her supporting act on her UK tour and she said yeah. I am so going to see B now!!! They both just seem so humble. What a great pairing.

And a last congrats to Alex! A true British talent!

OMG AMAZING THE LISTEN PERFORMANCE CAN'T STOP WATCHING IT FRINKING AMAZING THIS IS WHY BEYONCE IS MY IDOL AAAAAAAMMMMAAZZZZZINNNNNG

Alexandra song "Listen" better than Beyonce. I'm sorry but all that vibrato and screaming B did was so over the top. It's a ballad. You don't have to do all that extra stuff.

You're calling people haters and it took Beyonce almost 3 weeks to go platinum. Her first solo album it took a week, the second album a week and a half. That's a sign of decline. I wouldn't go bragging about that if I were you, especially since Britney Spears who can't sing at all, hardly did any promotion and sold more than Beyonce in the first week. And don't even get me started about Taylor Swift, a new comer on the country scene, out sold Beyonce in the first week and went platinum her second week.

Be a fan, but don't be ridiculous.........sheesh.

Yes, I came here and made a comment just like you did, because I wanted to see the performances. And the last time I looked I could say whatever I wanted. You don't like it, move on. Don't read my post, kick rocks, etc, etc, etc. :-)

i don't really like it when beyonce performs "boy" live. she's too over the top.

^^^LMAO AT HATERS...check ya facts about the previous albums platinum debuts cause you're DEAD WRONG!!! I'm not going to 2 go further into stating facts about THE QUEEN, cause its pointless. ICON, LEGEND, DIVA...just know when she came to the stage for that duet EVERYONE in that building rose and stood at attention, ALL HAIL QUEEN B.

shut the fuck up fightin over whether beyonce is good or not. im not a major fan but goddam can that girl sing. hers and alexandra's performance of listen was AMAZING there's no other word for it. so glad she's won, she's going to be big

^^^ WTF?!! Bey smashed it!!! Alex's did too, but Bey took the song to another level!!! Everyone 'ere's talking 'bout Bey! She literally killed it! Alex's killed it too, but truly Bey's on a level of her own!

MAN YALL SUM HATIN ASS BITCHES 4REAL U KNO B DA BEST IN DA GAME RITE NA N ONE OF DA BEST EVA TO DO IT SO SHUT DAT SHIT UP SHE CAN PERFORM SINGLE LADIES AND 5 SECONDS LATER PERFORM DANGEROUSLY IN LOVE OR ANY BALLAD AND BE AMAZING YOU KNO SHE GIVE YOU GOOSE BUMPS SO SHUT DAT BULLSHIT UP ANONYMOUS WIT YO DUMB ASS!

Awww. It was so endearing how Alex paused during her winner's performance of Hallelujah. She so wanted it so much. Hallelujah she won.

OWNED!!

Bey killed that performance

I don't love Alexandra. BUT I love her rendition of Hallelujah. It's one of my favorite songs. Everything worked here.

The Listen performance was AMAZING . . . Simon needs to check his talent radar . . . in the past he has said that Jennifer Hudson neither Beyonce can sing . . . JHud did And I Am Telling you and he had to eat a piece of CROW . . . after Beyonce's performance last night . . . he needs to eat another helping . . .

Congratulations Alexandra

WHOOOO, WHOOOO!!! YES, ALEX, YOU DID IT!

CONGRATS TO A WELL DESERVED WINNER!

LOL!!! Beyonce's performance of "If I Were A Boy" was joke. Especially at the end when she sings to that guy and touches his face. Ha, he got enough shy.

I am so happy for alex! I hope she makes it global. I hope they promote her here in the states. She is really a star and so humble. You could tell she wanted it so badly. I wish her nothing but the best and I will be getting her album and support her. Congrats.

Alex is the shit!!! She held her own next to Beyonce and the performance was international! we know Simon wasn't a fan from the start and favored Laura, Diana (see questions asked at the xfactor press conference) and when the others left and he realised the fan base he became a fan and saw pound signs - but like he said "if she didn't win there would be a riot"
I voted and have already purchased the single. Best money i've spent

Sorry i wanted to talk bout bee 1st BUT WOOO Alexandra stole the show throughout the whole of this X-factor season then she became world class after Candy Man performance and her levels went up week after week.

SHE SUNG WITH BEYONCE lots of Artist would be intimidated but Alex let her raspy hot vocals do the talkin.. HOW CLASSIC was that duet and Beyonce so gracious. Did any1 hear Bee's Harmony note with Alex at the end of Listen...

Silent Night: Blew the competition Away sung beautifully (last notes not really neeeded but Hot all the same)

LISTEN Duet: CLASSIC reality T.V. Moment CLASSY from BOTH artists. (Alexandra had 2 Cry and Bee knows she got powers to inspire lol)

You Are So Beautiful: Alex's voice SHINES on this song her vocal tone sits so well and I love hearing her sing this song

Hallelujah 1: Wow thats how u bring home a song JLS kept it simple and nice BUT Alex gave her SOUL to the song and made it hers to have.

Hallelujah 2: I wondered how she gonna pull through all that crying & if u watch her lips after 1st verse and chorus she says "Thank You God" then SHE BLEW & Sung with full heart and passion like a true singing pro.

I'm proud of the public this year as 2 black acts were in the final 2 and i know its not a colour thing in theory, how ever usually it ends up being that. Leona broke the barrier being mixed race and NOW a 1st fully black winner of the X-factor in what had to be the hardest year yet with loads of talented artist.

My Top 3 prediction at the start was Laura, Alexandra and possibly Austin or Rachel but hey at least one of my picks won hehe..

Well done 2 JLS for reaching so far and they gonna be biggest Boy Group in UK soon with the popularity they got. There performance of "I'm Already There" was the best, they sung really good. I hope from now on they share leads though because i think 2much weight was put on Aston's shoulders.

Eoghan i never thought he'd get so far in the comp with the mutiples of talent that was in this years final 12 but he was very consistant and grew along the way so i can't fault him 4being popular.

Overall a strong year for X-factor and it's good so many good singers entered. There was a mixed bag of styles and genres so was very good viewing for me especially after last years weak winner IMO.

WELL DONE ALEXANDRA BURKE!!!!!

[Sidenote: Beyonce is the best PERFORMER in the world combining singing and dancing there is no other that does it LIVE like her with those 2element. Sales or No Sales its there 4our eyes to see]

(P.S: Sorry 4such a long review LOL)

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ALEX IS MY DIAMOND GIRL!

i am soo happy both my faves were the final 2..i was slightly rooting for jls to win however decided they were better being runners up..reason being they can now look foward to taking their time with the album and i will most definetly buy it when it comes out!! so congrats to alex i rooted both jls and alex from day 1 and so so very happy!!! good luck to both.

p.s really unfortunate that one gets to perform with a superstar..advantage for alex there because i think the other 2 acts (bear in mind hate eggnogg!) should have a superstar to perform with..i was looking forward to rihanna and jls duet that was rumored (even though rihanna aint a great singer)but it would of made the competition interesting and not one sided from the off.

ANYWAYS GOOD LUCK TO ALEX HOPE YOU DO WELL!!! JLS YOU WILL HAVE SUCCESS TOO!!!XXXXXX

i'm speechleessss! xD
the LISTEN duet is absolutely a GOLDEN TV MOMENT! xD

LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE PLEASE

OMG!!! did any1 see that Simon Cowell stood up 1st when Alexandra introduced Beyonce?!?! hehehe... even the big name hater like himself has to make a standing ovation to our Q-Bee!

Wow there could only be one winner and the right singer won

Well Done Alexandra
Miss Diva Girl

Well Done JLS for gettin so far & top 2. Woulda been good if Rihanna stepped up to help them out but she declined the offer..

I agree with Antertain on everything you said and I am so glad you made note, that this is the first time a black person has won, these type of competition.

I actually thought that the british public would never allow a fully black person
to win, This is the first time a black person has won a competition like this.

Leona Lewis did it for the MIXED RACE, NOW ALEXANDRA HAS DONE IT FOR THE BLACKS

Antertain, aint nobody readin that long ass essay, kmt! beyonce smacked it tho!!!!!

I haven't been paying attention to the show or the posts about the show but Alexandra is a great singer and she handled her own very well with Beyonce. It was a touching moment seeing a fan sing with her "hero" as she called her. Great job! Wish her much success.

Beyonce could sing with a chipmunk and make it sound great. That Listen performance was outstanding.....

"Listen" was fab-u-lous! It just goes to show how REAL talent only needs a mic and a voice...no strippers in the background, no neon lights, or pirate outfits, just two mics and two voices. Go 'head ladies!
