Singer Tallia Storm's dreams were crushed when she was booted off of The X Factor: The Band after she failed to impress the judges with her second performance.

Although Tallia seemed pleased with her audition in front of X Factor judges, Nicole Scherzinger and Simon Cowell, Nicole wasn't so sure, as she couldn't see Tallia transitioning from solo artist to band singer.

The 21-year-old then returned to perform in front of the judges for a second time, but this time, 2006 winner Leona Lewis was on the panel.

What a throwback.

It all went downhill after she failed to impress with her cover of Jessie J's Price Tag, with the former Celebs Go Dating star then told to pursue her already-existing career as a solo artist.

After being told "no" by the three judges, Tallia opened up to the show's host, Dermot O'Leary about how grateful she was for the experience.

"Well, you have to understand it's not really a no," she said.

"I am a solo singer, I came here as a solo singer and I've left as a solo singer, and I'm really grateful to have even performed on this stage."
