The future looks rosy for Cheryl Fernandez-Versini lookalike Jale Antor after she turns up to the next round of The X Factor complete with her own version of the singer’s infamous tattoo.

The new series of X Factor kicks off with “a flashback” for a tearful Cheryl Fernandez-Versini when one of her old acts returns in a bid to restart her career.
