London, Oct 11 (ANI): X Factor champ Alexandra Burke, who is all set to appear alongside Robbie Williams for the latest season of the show, has said that she is nervous about how people would welcome her latest single as she battles the ‘Hero’ singer for the No1 spot.
Both Robbie and Alexandra are releasing their new singles tomorrow, which many have touted as the biggest chart fight in ages.
Alex’s punchy track, ‘Bad Boys’, featuring US hip hop star Flo Rida, is against Robbie’s comeback, ‘Bodies’.
When asked about her return to the X Factor, she said that taking on Robbie - who had a hit with She’s The One - wasn’t her only worry.
“I’m nervous about going back on the show, who wouldn’t be? It’s The X Factor. I’ll be back in front of the panel - and Simon Cowell, which is extra nerve-racking!” The News of the World quoted her as saying.
“But I’m excited and I can’t wait to see what people think of my album, Overcome. We’ve worked hard on the performance of Bad Boys for the show, so I hope everyone tunes in,” she added.
A music source said: “There’s a lot riding on Robbie’s comeback. So if Alex can deny him the No1 it will be a really big deal.” (ANI)
