Greymouth’s Jackie Thomas has been crowned the winner of the first season of The X Factor New Zealand. More than 6000 hopefuls had auditioned to be in the running to win the title, a record contract with Sony and a car.
West Coast X Factor finalist Jackie Thomas is rapt to be back on home turf for a one-off concert in Greymouth. ”I just love the West Coast,” extolled the pint-sized singer after she landed in Hokitika this morning, accompanied by a large television entourage.
