I actually came here to say this, but it's more of one of the reasons than the reason.

Anyway, I prefer her to Cheryl Cole and she actually brings something to the table. Not anything fresh or exciting just something. But, she is sorta bland and lacks a standout personality outside of her colorful clothing. Also, her childish vocal tone could be a turnoff to listen to for some people.

I think she could be commercially successful if she wanted to be, but she's clearly stated that it's not a priority. She's just doing her own thing. She's styling herself as an indie artist and she already is building up a cult underground following. I think she's doing quite well for herself to be honest.

For the same reason she was overlooked in Girls Aloud.

No. Nadine was the main singer and she flopped really hard. Big things were expected of Nadine, nobody really expected Nicola to do well.

I think her & Pixie are the most promising artist of the new UK Pop Girls. Hopefully she blows up along with Pixie. Who knows maybe she could be the next big local thing like Katy Perry is for the US.

This.

And beat of my drum was just terrible.

While I liked "Beat of My Drum" personally, anytime I played it for my friends they would always ask me if it was Rebecca Black.

The reviews are in. Nicola slays the game.

She's not a good singer, she's got no personality, about as much charisma as disintegrating toilet paper. I don't understand how she's so popular on ATRL.

Not a good singer? :38

What reviews? What game is she slaying? You don't make any sense.

Wow. I haven't heard Nicola blow like that in forever. Thanks sis!

Beat Of My Drum has something interesting going on until that ****ing chorus.

DiamondDust

She has way too much vibrato in that performance, IMO...
