X Factor star Cher Lloyd has been forced to reschedule a planned performance at GAY, so that she can jet off to America.

The 17 year old singer finished fourth on the ITV talent show last month and had been booked to perform at the London club this Saturday night. However the gig has now been postponed so that she can travel to the US where insiders say she will start recording her debut album.

Club’s owner Jeremy Joseph put a statement on Facebook saying:

“Due to Cher Lloyd at short notice having fly to the US to record, this Sat performance has been moved to Sat 5th Feb.

“Everything was done to keep the date in, but this was the only opportunity for Cher to go to US due [to] X Factor tour dates. Sat 5th Feb, is 1st date back in UK & Cher has committed it to G-A-Y (sic).”

Insiders recently reported that Lloyd had been signed to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation record label and that Black Eyed Peas star will.i.am would act as creative director on the album.

Great news.
