A former X Factor star performed at the Flackstock music festival on Monday – but can you guess who it is?

The blonde beauty appeared on the show in 2008 when she was just 17 and then released an album called Songs From The Tainted Cherry Tree in 2010.

She played the lead role in the West End revival of The Rise And Fall Of Little Voice and had her own clothing line for very.co.uk.

The 32-year-old singer is now set to take on another major role in a stage show about Gwyneth Paltrow’s skiing challenge.

Can you guess who it is? That’s right, it’s Diana Vickers.

That's right, it's Diana Vickers: the singer rose to fame as a contestant on The X Factor in 2008 alongside Alexandra Burke and JLS.

Diana, best known for her hit single Once, announced on Instagram on May 8 that she will be performing as ‘Gwyneth’ in a play titled I Wish You Well.

Those were the actress’s famous parting words to Terry Sanderson, who sued Gwyneth for $300,000.

She alleged that reckless skiing caused her to rear-end him on Feb. 26, 2016.

Last year, a jury ruled in Gwyneth’s favor, stating that she was not at fault for the injury he claimed to have suffered at Utah’s Deer Valley Resort.

Sanderson said he suffered four broken ribs, a concussion and permanent brain damage. Gwyneth countersued for $1 and her legal fees.

Meanwhile, Denise Van Outen, Rebbeca Ferguson and Jessica Wright were among celebrities who joined Diana in paying tribute to the late Love Island presenter Caroline Flack as they attended the annual Flackstock festival on Monday.

The event takes place every year and aims to raise money for mental health causes after Caroline took her own life in February 2020 at the age of just 40.

A host of other celebrities attended the event at Englefield House to show their support, including Caroline’s close friend Olly Murs.

The Troublemaker singer, 40, famously presented The Xtra Factor with Caroline in the years after he came second on the main show and performed his main show with a huge photo of his pal behind him.

Denise Van Outen, 50, opted for a leopard-print minidress and trainers as she arrived at Reading's Flackstock festival, where Diana was spotted (held in memory of Love Island presenter Caroline Flack).
