Alexandra Burke to perform at Air Tattoo

News - X Factor star Alexandra Burke will wowing crowds at this year's Royal International Air Tattoo, with fans hoping to hear the soul diva's most popular hits.

While 250 aircraft from across the globe, a seven-hour flying programme, classic car display and whole host of family entertainment is sure to draw visitors from the four corners of the UK and beyond, organisers have announced that this year’s Royal International Air Tattoo will also feature a performance by X Factor star Alexandra Burke.

For those unfamiliar with the soul diva, Alexandra was nominated for Best British Single at the Brit Awards last month; has enjoyed a string of hits since winning The X Factor in 2008, including ‘Bad Boys’ and ‘All Night Long’; while her debut single ‘Hallelujah’ snagged the coveted UK Christmas number one spot in 2008, as well as being Europe’s fastest selling single.

Having recently completed a sell-out UK tour, Burke is expected to wow crowds during her Cotswolds performance this July – taking place on the Sunday lunchtime of the two-day weekend event.

‘I’m really looking forward to performing at one of the UK’s biggest outdoor events this summer particularly as it is held in support the Royal Air Force Charitable Trust. Let’s face it, my tour was so exciting and gave me such a buzz that I’ve been flying high ever since – so starring at an airshow makes perfect sense!’ said the 22-year-old-singer.

The Air Tattoo’s spokesman Richard Arquati added: ‘Anyone planning to visit the Air Tattoo this summer and who would like to see one of the UK’s top female singers should act fast. We’re confident that Alexandra, who will be performing on the Sunday only, will prove just as popular as her recent sell-out tour.’
