Nikki Brown, better known as Bupsi, changed-up the mood of her audition halfway through in tonight's episode of The X Factor.
The 37-year-old professional singer from Leeds was first told she had a "kind face" by judge Simon Cowell, and proceeded to sing The Beatles' track 'All My Loving'.

The judges were underwhelmed, with Cowell saying the song choice was "horrific" and that she was "too nice" to go through.
However, the singer soon turned the tide after Cowell's criticism and launched into an animated performance of Tina Turner's 'Rock Me Baby' to show the judge just how nasty she can be.

Sadly, and yet appropriately, from Locus itself:
Locus publisher, editor, and co-founder Charles N. Brown, 72, died peacefully in his sleep July 12, 2009 on his way home from Readercon.
Charles Nikki Brown was born June 24, 1937 in Brooklyn NY, where he grew up. He attended the City College of New York, taking time off from 1956-59 to serve in the Us Navy, and finished his degree (Bs in physics and engineering) at night on the GI Bill while working as a junior engineer in the '60s. He married twice, to Marsha Elkin (1962-69), who helped him start Locus, and to Dena Benatan (1970-77), who co-edited Locus for many years while he worked full time. He moved to San Francisco in 1972, working as a nuclear engineer until becoming a full-time Sf editor in 1975. The Locus offices have been in Brown's home in the Oakland hills since 1973.
