Alexandra Burke Hairstyles

Alexandra Imelda Cecelia Ewen Burke (born 25 August 1988) is a British R&B and pop recording artist who rose to fame after winning the fifth series of British television series The X Factor in 2008. Burke is currently signed to Epic Records, Syco Records and RCA Records.
As the winner of The X Factor, Burke released her debut single, "Hallelujah", originally a Leonard Cohen song, that became the current European record holder for single sales over a period of 24 hours, selling 105,000 copies in one day. It was also the top-selling song of the year in the UK, and became the 2008 UK Christmas number one single. By January 2009, UK sales of Burke's version of "Hallelujah" had passed one million copies, a first for a British female soloist.
Her debut album, Overcome, was released in October 2009 and entered the UK Albums Chart at number one. The album's lead single "Bad Boys" was released a week ahead of the album and debuted at number one, selling over 780,000 in the UK and becoming her second consecutive number-one single and first Brit-nominated single. She has since followed "Bad Boys" with singles that have consecutively reached the top ten in the UK Singles Chart. Her most recent single, "Start Without You", became her third solo UK number one hit (in addition to two number one singles as a featured artist in charity singles, "Hero" and "Everybody Hurts"). To date, Burke has achieved four Number ones in Ireland: "Hallelujah", "Bad Boys", "All Night Long" and "Start Without You". Burke has been nominated three times for a Brit Award for Best British Single as a solo artist, with "Hallelujah" in 2009, "Bad Boys" in 2010, and "All Night Long" in 2011. As of December 2010, Burke has sold over 4 million records in the UK with combined sales of her singles and her album Overcome.
After the All Night Long Tour, Burke became the first X Factor contestant to have a judging panel role when she became a judge during the auditions of So You Think You Can Dance. She has just finished recording her second studio album, which is due to be released in early 2012.

Alexandra Burke is going to Haiti to help with the relief efforts.
The 'Broken Heels' singer is to fly to the Caribbean island to assist aid workers attempting to cope with the aftermath of the two huge earthquakes which hit Haiti in January, killing hundreds of thousands of people.
Alexandra, 21, said: "When I was asked to go and see things for myself, I didn't hesitate.
"If I can raise awareness about how much support is needed then I'm there in a heartbeat."
"I don't think anyone can prepare for what it will be like but I will try to be strong.
"Watching the news was like a disaster film, but this was real."
Alexandra is also one of a number of stars to contribute to Simon Cowell's Helping Haiti charity single, a cover of R.E.M. song 'Everybody Hurts', to raise money for the nation.
The track also features Take That, Susan Boyle, Robbie Williams, James Morrison and Cheryl Cole.
Alexandra is the latest in a line of stars to personally help Haiti.
Actor-and-pilot John Travolta flew in aid supplies in a borrowed plane, while musician John Mayer is donating royalty payments from his song 'The Heart of Life' to the nation. He also donated $500,000 to aid relief.
Other celebrity donors include Jennifer Aniston, who gave $500,000, and couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie who handed over $1 million.
