Miscellaneous
Lloyd has performed on T4 on the Beach. She has also performed at the Leeds Aire FM Party in the Park and Key 103 Live Manchester, both on the day of release of her debut single.
She had auditioned for The X Factor twice before (when the minimum age was lower) singing ballads but it was only after reinventing herself in 2010 that she got through to see the judges. Lloyd has previously performed at holiday camps and said she gets a mixed reaction to her music. She auditioned singing the Keri Hilson version of Turn My Swag On. At bootcamp she sang a rap version of Viva La Vida adding lyrics she claimed to have written herself, but this was disputed and reports claimed she took them from a song by rapper Swizz Beatz.
At the judges' houses she performed Cooler Than Me but suffered a throat infection and was unable to complete her song. She was given a second chance, but broke down sobbing and could not complete the song. Despite this, she was picked as one of the final three girls by mentor Cole. Lloyd sang a rendition of Just Be Good to Me in the first of the live shows. In the second live show she sang "Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)". In the fourth live show she sang "Stay" and did not rap for the first time. Cowell called the performance the best of the series. In the seventh week, Lloyd was in the bottom two for the first time after her rendition of "Imagine". Cowell, Cole and Walsh all saved her, resulting in Paije Richardson being eliminated.

Cher Lloyd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That you've been checking back in
'Cause I said goodbye, moved overnight
And you haven't heard much since then
Wondering how I'm doing now
It's none of your business first of all
Wondering how I'm doing now
But if you've got to know, well sure
You think I'd be lost
Think I'd be lost without you, lost
Is it hard knowing you're wrong
See I got lots without you
Lots without you
Great sex in the morning
Sex in the morning
Someone to hold me
I got lots
Stay out in the nighttime
Out in the nighttime
Have me a wild time
I got lots
You heard from a friend of a friend
That I've been doing just fine, I
You don't want me
You just want me to keep wanting you
All of the time
But if you were wondering
It's none of your business first of all
Wondering how I'm doing now
But if you've got to know, well sure
Well sure
You think I'd be lost
Think I'd be lost without you, lost
Is it hard knowing you're wrong
See I got lots without you
Lots without you
Great sex in the morning
Sex in the morning
Someone to hold me
I got lots
Stay out in the nighttime
Out in the nighttime
Have me a wild time
I got lots
To be honest I think I dodged a bullet with you
And I don't know how I didn't see it coming but woo
Yea you got a God complex
And now I'm thanking God you're my ex
I hope you don't trip up on yourself
If you think you're so hot go back to hell
'Cause you think that I
You think I'd be lost
Think I'd be lost without you lost
Is it hard knowing you're wrong
See I got lots without you
Lots without you
Great sex in the morning
Sex in the morning
Someone to hold me
I got lots
Stay out in the nighttime
Out in the nighttime
Have me a wild time
I got lots
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
In the song "Lost" by Cher Lloyd, the singer addresses an ex-lover who has been trying to find out how she's been doing since she left. The lyrics express a sense of confidence and independence, as Cher explains that she doesn't need her ex to be happy. She also goes on to point out that her life is full of exciting experiences without him, including great sex and wild nights out.
The chorus of the song repeatedly emphasizes the fact that Cher doesn't need her ex to feel complete. She sings, "You think I'd be lost without you, lost. Is it hard knowing you're wrong? See I got lots without you, lots without you." This line makes it clear that Cher is satisfied with her life and doesn't feel a need to rely on her ex for happiness.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of the ex having a "God complex," which suggests that he was egotistical and thought of himself as superior in the relationship. Cher contrasts this by expressing her gratitude for having moved on from him and being able to live a fulfilling life apart from him.
Overall, the song can be interpreted as an anthem of independence and self-confidence. Cher encourages listeners to be proud of themselves and their accomplishments, without feeling like they need anyone else's approval or validation.

You are so damn talented. Pure raw talent! Just curious, have you ever considered popping off with a hip-hop single? What you do is great, I just feel like alot of your passion was in that in the beginning and you SLAYED it, and seemed like you had so much fun performing it!

I don’t get why people back in the day say, “I’m a fan of Cher Lloyd!” but, they all just left her. Only real fans would still be here for her.

Do you have a list of people registered or something?
People say a lot without really meaning it. Even if they did, they can still change over time right.
I mean I believed the same when I was a kid, but when I was getting older, I realised people talk the talk, but don't walk the walk.
Holding this against them will only make them bothered by you. You'll see. It's way better to focus on your won and don't really listen too much to regular people.
They always have opinions about everything and talk too much. I have learned to observe more and let go, what is not for me. Instead of fighting useless arguments.
