We are so proud of Whitehall born Melanie McCabe. She sailed through the XFactor auditions over the weekend and now she's through to bootcamp. It could be fourth time lucky for the 20 year old as she first auditioned when she was just 14.
Louis Walsh was reduced to tears during Melanie's audition on Saturday, as he has stayed in touch with her over the years and knows how difficult it's been for her family as she revealed on the show she's losing her house.
Melanie revealed to 98FM how winning the show could change her life…… “Yeah It has been a tough time and everyone seems to be zoning in on that at the moment, with losing my house. It has been tough but the XFactor has helped me stay positive and my family. I want to win the competition, that's my main goal and I'd love to be able to support my family and to buy my mam a house, that's always been something I've wanted to do so hopefully.”
