Performing seventh on tonight’s episode of The X Factor is Melanie Amaro, performing Michael Jackson’s famous song, Man In The Mirror from the movie, This Is It. Wow, you go girl! I loved her performance!

It’s such a timely performance, considering that Conrad Murray was just convicted of manslaughter in the Michael Jackson case.

L.A. Reid said that the song was predictably strong song, but he didn’t see the range. Nicole Scherzinger said it was a brilliant song choice. She loves the song and that the whole world needs the song. Her voice is a vessel of the light and she made Michael proud tonight.

Paula Abdul called her a remarkable singer and well done!

Simon Cowell said she was “bloody fantastic” and told L.A. that Melanie performed a tribute. He called this her best performance in the competition so far. She has range and did amazing.
