MILLIONS of viewers watched a Corsham mother dance and sing with a diving helmet on her head during the X Factor ad breaks last weekend.

After recording herself singing Birdy's Wild Horses and uploading the video to the show using X Factor sponsor Talk Talk's FX Star app, Lisa Rogers, 42, of Glebe Way, appeared on national television on Saturday evening.

She said: "I was famous for a couple of days and it was great! Me and my daughter always watch X Factor. I downloaded the FX Star app and it was really easy and a lot of fun.

“My phone was going mad on Saturday night when it came on telly. I was telling everyone I knew that they had to watch it and lots of people did, including people who don’t usually watch the show. My daughter was really excited and she had her friends round and we all watched it together. She said she was proud of me."

The app, which was launched by Talk Talk to allow fans create their own musical videos, has a variety of filters for fans to use as they sing along to their favourite hits.

With her phone sounding non-stop, Mrs Rogers decided to embrace her new-found fame but stopped herself from going to a charity coffee morning with signed photographs.

"I was thinking about taking some photographs and a pen down to a Macmillan coffee morning I was attending to sign some autographs and I had to stop myself," the mother-of-one joked.

The X Factor fan, who has been watching the show for five years with her 13-year-old daughter Poppy, her husband Nathan and her cat Pumpkin, began recording the clips for the iconic adverts a few weeks ago after downloading the app as a joke but thought the sponsor would take no notice.

Although Mrs Rogers had recorded several clips with her family, the show's sponsor chose the one of her sporting a diving helmet – something her daughter is determined to beat.

She said: "Nothing can get in the way of X Factor. My daughter is trying to upstage me now as she thinks if mum can do it, I can do it too!"
