R&B superstar BEYONCE KNOWLES proved she has the Midas touch with her appearance on hit U.K. TV talent show THE X FACTOR - the contestant she collaborated with won the $1.5 million (£1 million) prize. The Crazy In Love hitmaker thrilled British fans when she performed on the show with Alexandra Burke in the series finale in London on Saturday (13Dec08). Knowles joined a stunned Burke onstage and blew the audience away with a rendition of Listen - a track she sang in hit 2006 movie Dreamgirls.
And it seemed the appearance worked for the 20-year-old contestant - she was crowned 2008's X Factor winner just hours after her performance with Knowles. Burke will follow in the footsteps of former winner Leona Lewis - she has received a $1.5 million (£1 million) record deal and a management contract with the show's judge Simon Cowell. Knowles, who reportedly scooped $1.5 million (£1 million) for the appearance - also performed a rock version of her worldwide smash If I Was A Boy.
If I do a duet with Tina Turner, that should get me in the front of Vibe magazine...right? Below is that winning performance. She does look like Piaget doesn't she?
