Diana Vickers from Blackburn, England was first discovered on The X Factor in 2008. With her distinctive, and some would say, atypical TV talent show vocal style and voice, she finished 4th in the show, losing out to JLS and Alexandra Burke. The singer, however, was given the best deal when she refused to sign to Simon Cowell's label, syco, and instead signed to RCA Records where she sat aside artists like Alicia Keys and Avril Lavigne. She has since parted company with her label, claiming via her official Tumblr blog that this was by mutual consent and for purely creative reasons.
