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.

The song “Swagger Jagger” by Cher Lloyd is all about confidence and owning your uniqueness. The chorus is quite straightforward – Cher Lloyd finds people who copy her everything from her sense of style to her music boring, and she wants them to find their own identity. She sings, “Swagger jagger, You should get some of your own, Count that money, Get your game on”. This means that they should be confident in their own skin and not try to copy anyone else.
The first verse indicates that people can't stop staring at her and talking about her, but she doesn't care. She asks them to let it go and get out of her way. The second verse talks about the haters who keep shouting and writing about her on Twitter and YouTube, but again, she doesn't care. She is confident in her own skin and is determined to get her game on.
Overall, the song is quite energetic and powerful, with a catchy beat and lyrics that are easy to sing along to. It’s a song about self-confidence and celebrating one’s individuality, and it encourages listeners not to let other people’s opinions bring them down.

SquareBoiz
@I love got7 You’re a child this is literally how the 2010’s was with Swag era, and the Beats Speakers and headsets was what we played out loud at parties and events. Nostalgic era.
I love got7
@SquareBoiz boy bye I'm 28 and I remember vividly this song was trashed. Not every song in this upbeat era was good, you're getting a genre and good music in that genre confused, like sit down with your lies. Back then she was made out to be a joke
