Default Brave Kerry steps it up

Quote:
HERE’S X Factor finalist Kerry McGregor as you’ve never seen her before . . . WALKING.

Wheelchair-user blonde Kerry, 31, broke her neck as a 13-year-old when she fell out of a tree.

She can get about with the aid of crutches but tires quickly.

A show source said: “Kerry has limited use of her legs, but can’t walk far at all.”

Single mum Kerry does not plan to sing in her wheelchair every week.

She is working on other ways to perform — including being carried on stage by hunky men.

I hope she finds ways of getting on. Seeing her being lifted up in a wheelchair each week could start getting boring, in some ways.

I think Kerry is such a sweet person, and good to see her walking.
But its going to be TO hard for her, it isnt fair.
Tours, shows.. she wont be able to do them
I hope she proves me wrong!!

People are completely thinking of Kerry as a disabled person. The fact she can use crutches for a short period of time is wonderful, but she's still an extremely talented singer. I agree, I don't think she'll win, but she'd be worthy of a recording contract.

I find her style of singing rather dull and dated.

I really like Kerry. I hope she can find other ways of getting on stage. Just to prove people wrong. I think she has a good voice but a little part of me thinks simon pput her through because of sympathy but another part doesnt think Simon would do that.

No i don't think that is it, i think she did enough to go threw it's got nothing to do with her being in a wheel chair IMO, but i do think she has to do better to get further.

The way that the judges and audience patronise her is disgusting.
