X Factor winner to support Olly Murs this summer at Bournemouth concert
The youngest ever winner of the X Factor, has been named as special guest at pop superstar Olly Murs’ outdoor concert in Kings Park on Saturday, 5 August.
Louisa Johnson, the 19-year-old X Factor starlet, who won the 2015 series of the TV talent show at the age of 17, with Simon Cowell calling her ‘the best singer he had ever seen on the show,’ will be Olly Murs’ special guest at his outdoor concert in Kings Park, Bournemouth this summer.
R’n’B and pop star Louisa has since had hits with Forever Young and So Good and featured on the Clean Bandit top five single Tears. She performed last year to 80,000 fans at Wembley Stadium with the likes of Little Mix and her debut album is due out this year.
Up to 10,000 fans are expected to descend on Kings Park for the concert with Olly.
Louisa said: “I’m delighted to be appearing with Olly in Bournemouth. He has always been one of my heroes and to be sharing a stage with him will be a very special moment.
“Little did I dream that when I was watching him on the X Factor I would one day win the competition myself and end up performing with him.”
Olly, 32, is another X Factor success story. He shot to fame in 2009 after finishing second to Joe McElderry with Stacey Solomon third.
Popular singer-songwriter Olly is one of British music’s biggest stars with record sales exceeding 10 million.
He scored an amazing fourth consecutive number one album with his latest, most personal offering 24 Hrs. His top singles include Dance With Me Tonight, Troublemaker, Heart Skips A Beat and Dear Darlin’.
