Cher Lloyd was only inspired to become successful because of Mary Byrne

Former X Factor star Cher Lloyd has told how Mary Byrne inspired her to go on and become successful.

The Sirens singer admits the Dubliner – who she was on the music TV show with – “was a big part of my experience”.

And Cher, 20, now hopes to be able to meet up with the ex-Tesco worker for a cup of tea when she gigs in Ireland.

“Now and again I think of Mary and I think of how much she was a big part of my experience and how lovely a woman she was,” she said.

“She really is a lovely, lovely woman and… I want her to know that I would love to meet up with her again.

“Hopefully when I come to Ireland she’ll have a good chin wag with me over a cup of tea. I would love it.”

When Cher shot to fame on the X Factor in 2010, she came fourth – just behind One Direction.

And the UK star admits she never expected their huge success – but is inspired by Niall Horan.

“Nobody could have predicted how they would go on to explode around the world,” she told the Sunday World magazine.

“But I’m very much a One Direction fan and their success has definitely helped me because it shows that you can have a big career coming out of TV show.”
