THE posh X Factor contestant Chloe Jasmine sang live in Bridgwater at the launch of a new jazz and blues café Highway 61 on Saturday.

Chloe, aged 23, from Wells, who was voted off this season’s The X Factor in October, wowed the judges and public with her jazz sound and Marilyn Monroe-inspired look.

A spokesman for Highway 61 in the High Street, a new over-21s venue, said: “We were very pleased to welcome the UK’s newest jazz sensation and our special guest, Chloe Jasmine.”

Chloe performed on stage and took part in a small private meet and greet.
