SINGING sensation Zoe Birkett has been praised by the latest Pop Idol hopeful to leave the ITV show.
Hayley Evetts, 25, left the show on Saturday leaving Darlington teenager Zoe as the only girl in the last four of the competition.
Hayley said: "Zoe really has the most amazing voice for her age. I can't imagine how brilliant her voice will be when she's older. If she doesn't win she'll still go on to be a big success."
Zoe's big band performance on Saturday, when she sang Get Happy, was praised by the show's judges as the best they had heard during the whole competition.
Her performance has improved her odds and she is now third most popular, with Darius Danesh thought to be the one most likely to be voted off the next show.
This Saturday the contestants will perform two number one songs, one ballad and one up-beat. To vote for Zoe tune in to ITV at 6.10pm on Saturday.
