Even with that mishap, it was still one of my favorite performances. You and Nicole handled the situation very professional and kept going. It's a learning experience. Love your vlogs.

omg im literally speachless, this was so refreshing to watch.. you're such a beautiful soul Jahmene i mean you didnt have to say all those nice things about Nicole, you're one of the good ones God bless you! but honestly she's like one of the most underrated artists ever damn

[@bar10ml44]

Nicole's voice is sensational

[@viability4us]

Jahmene - thank you for all your comments about your performance with Nicole on X-factor. I just wanted to say how special the performance was due to her obvious care for you throughout your entire X-factor and your professionalism with her as well - a very rare experience between the two of you which you both shared with all of us - one could feel the love - and I am sure the entire audience got it too. Thank you for being so honest and caring with Nicole as well - it was so great to feel that, as well as your explanation of the ordeal. I wish you the best for your career!

[@Jacek0Mazur]

I think the mic failing resulted in a beautiful performance..

Thanks Jacek.

[@VampiresBleedingLove]

You're such a beautiful soul Jahmene. As a fan of both of you, it's great hearing from you the real story of what happened. I truly believe it was a blessing for you both to have met at that time of your lives, and for you both to perform that song that night together. I hope you both stay friends for life. God bless!

[@JahmeneOfficial]

God Bless you too!

[@MrSirchasen]

When I listen to this it makes me realize how difficult it is to perform on stage in front of millions of people. It really takes a lot of preparation and care to put on a beautiful and meaningful performance.

[@christinejj178]

Jahmene, I watched the duet you did with Nicole so many time's. Right from the time she walked out on stage I knew something was wrong. Then watching Nicole coming to you faster to the Mic? I knew her's was not working. I didn't think it was a fix. I don't know who would had said that. However, Your so right about Nicole! I love her so much! She's inspirational & the greatest female voice of our time along with YOURS! I love watching the X Factor shows when Nicole is Judging because, she's always honest & she rarely ever say's anything neegative to a performer in live shows. You could see the special bond from the start between you both from the get-go. It was lovely to see. I'm glad you also said not to use the word: "Lucky" because there's nothing in our lives that we have thats called Luck. It's always a Blessing. There's a reason for everything we go through in our life. What ever happens? Makes us stronger and makes us who we are today! God has plans for us all. And Luck has nothing to do with it. We are Blessed just to wake up each day & have a roof over our heads, a bed to sleep in & water to drink & be cleansed by & food on the table everyday. All these are true everyday Blessing's. We should never take for granted! I love you Jahmene & always stay true to who you are. God Bless You & Your Family! Thanks for sharing this special special moment with us. xoxox

[@dublinairportplanes]

she’s such a experienced signer and coach, and I think that is what saved it. Your both amazing singers. You guided each other during the performance

Hi, I watched your performances in X-Factor. I'm now a fan of yours from the Philippines. 🇵🇭 You're my crush now. 😻🙈🙊

[@lauraotoole7932]

by far the best duet on the X factor to date, the talent between the two of you is ridiculous 🙌🏻 hats off to you both for pulling it together , a lot of other people either would have freaked out or stormed off 💪🏻 here's to hoping many more number one albums, you deserve it 😉🎤

[@JahmeneOfficial]

Bless you Laura. Thank you

[@mare678]

You sound like SUCH a lovely person!! I wish you all the best! I did not see the season you were on X Factor (life stuff, you know), so I just saw it for the first time today in 2024. My first impression was what a sweet, thoughtful, unselfish partner you were in that performance. Then KZbin offered this video. I must say, I am impressed with your heart, with your kindness, with your generosity. May God bless you and bless your career. You are a light shining on your hilltop. Keep on shining!!

[@daniellesilvermedium7678]

Jahmene even with the mishap with the mic you and Nicole still was wonderful together on stage I really love your voice Jasmine Thank you and Bight Blessings to you always xxx

[@angelbarnard3005]

Nicole seems like such a humble women! And I know she would never take the mic from you or anyone. Definitely one of my favourite duets. You guys were very professional about the situation. It's such a blessing that she was your mentor, and from this day still friends! 💜

Have you noticed that Nicole's and your body language when you shared the mic are actually almost exactly the same? That actually makes the entire performance so much more touching and emotional

Jahmene - I’ve only really just discovered you watching X factor videos on KZbin (I’m from Australia). However, I’ve literally watched your performances more than 100 times. I am totally in awe of your talent and have been touched by your struggles in life and am now cheering you on years later. I sincerely wish you the best in life as you really inspire me. However, for the record, I think your performance with Nicole was a great moment. For me its not tainted by what went wrong, in a strange way it makes it better. It reminds me to think how much pressure it must have been to perform each and every week. You are amazing!

[@zenawesley9948]

Jahmene, you are very good person and I admire you! Nicole as a highly professional singer and your mentor, but all above your true friend held that microfon situation greatly- for your sake at first! I greatly respect Nicole as a singer and a great person being. Please Jahmene do not be depressed, God gave you such a huge talent! He wants you to bring happiness to all his children! We need you!

Best colab ever on X factor with out a doubt. I think the mic not working put even more emotion into the song. Love you jahmene

[@jesy8079]

You should react to your bootcamp and judges houses performance

[@jolivre]

Jahmene - thank you for your explanation of the duet..it cleared up everything! I was trawling KZbin this evening and looking at best auditions and other stuff; it all started after watching Benidorm tonight..Shaun Foster Conley led to Tom Jones led to another then another - so much great music. Saw your first audition & was blown away by your " At Last " and also the instant connection between you and Nicole. Your portrait here of Nicole is beautiful; the emotion between you was almost touchable after " The Greatest Love of All ". And I love your use of the word ' blessed '. The pair of you obviously have a wonderful friendship and that's always a blessing. Great good wishes, Jahmene, & God bless!

[@RisingPhoenixCreations]

despite the mic, this song is the best ever. i was voting for you all the way and i double timed it in that perfomance. it was the most beautiful duet i have ever seen on the xfactor back when it meant something.

[@danwilliams7571]

You both carried on beautifully, regardless of the technical issues. Both of you are very gracious and complementary of one another.

[@i.m.7710]

The show must go on. I didn't even notice the Mic issue when I saw this for the first time ever tonight (this replay is my 2nd time watching). It looked like she wanted the singing to be more intimate. And you adapted like a pro. The singing was incredible. Love your insights...music is your thing for sure. You speak well on your subject. I thought I was pretty smart at your age, but I never had your tact, diplomacy, your total way with words that is very easy and comforting to listen to. 🎶🎼🎵🎹🎤🎼

[@JustMe-gs9xi]

yes, i agree, and thank you for loving and respecting nicole. a friendship like that - it is priceless.. Bless

You are flawless ! One of the best live shows ever . What I love the most about you, is that you have this huge and amazing voice and still, you're so humble ! Keep up the good work mate, and like the guy bellow said : I hope to see you here in Brazil someday ;) love ya man

[@viability4us]

Jahmene, you are so real.......never stop being yourself; you are perfect. The song with Nicole at the live show was a screwup for sure but both you and Nicole made it go right - you both turned lemons into lemonade! I can see from your recent posts on your video channel how much you have grown and expanded; it's great to see! Jahmene, you have a gift, don't let anyone stop you from sharing it with others. I will buy your albums! JB

[@debbiebramwell]

I loved the performance. The mishap and everything made it perfect! You are a beautiful person and sharing Bible scriptures is the best! God bless you! You will always be my favorite from the show! ❤❤❤

One of the best X factor performances ever.

[@renan8699]

I'm a perfectionist myself and I know how you might feel bad about all the issues that happened. Even tho you feel great about her attitude. But believe me, this presentation was everything. I remember calling my parents to see this vídeo and we all got goosebumps because your connection after the mic issues was perfect. It was really touching.

[@nechialee4624]

Jahmene the duet with both yourself and Nicole was AWESOME, wowwwwwwwww !!!!

[@NoraHepburn]

Jamene, you are the best singer I have heard, and I am 65 years old! I know a good singer when I hear one, trust me! I have listened to all the greats in music, and in my mind, the best singers are the ones that you can honestly say that you could listen to all day long! Along with you, I could listen to Tom Jones, Andy Williams, Shirley Bassy, To name but a few. You are world class! You have not let fame change you, and you were put on this earth to do what you do! When I first heard you sing for the X factor, I thought nobody could beat you. You were beaten by James Arthur but he is not as talented as you, and I thought then, as I still do, that it was a wrong decision. However, you have moved on. Bless you, and continue to do good as I know you will!!!

How wonderful to see you here looking back at that amazing opportunity for you with Nicole. Blessings in your life and future.

I think you are incredible Jahmeme , I listened and had your first album since X factor . I lost my phone and I could not remember your surname . Anyway cut a long story short I did a search on Jahmazzing X factor because I remember Nicole called you jahmazzing , this is the beginning of my email which is after you . Since finding you I am so please to see how you have grown and have your own Utube . I am also in awe how you have talked about your life and mum . You truly are amazing . Thank you for being you , love your voice it’s such a healing voice . 2014 was a year off turbulence for me but your songs and voice was my cure . Nicole is so spiritual I feel her gift too . Keep doing what your doing Jahmeme .

That's so personal to me now but I'm much more confident than I used to be, so thanks for always being you and being so lovely to us even if we get on your nerves sometimes lol x
