X Factor

You go for a drink in a live music bar and see a pretty young woman with an amazing voice singing karaoke. She looks good, she sings beautifully and she has a real x factor. What do you do?

Get chatting, get on like a house on fire and go clubbing until sunrise together - future starlets have to know how to party.

Invite her over to your house for a family dinner and a chat about the industry.

Try to sign her, but get gazumped by a more ruthless mogul.

Accost her as soon as she steps off stage with a five-year contract in one hand and a pen in the other.
