Tired eyes: Cher Lloyd looked worn out as she turned up for rehearsals at the ITV studios in London today
At just 17, Cher Lloyd is one of the X Factor's youngest contestants.
And it appears the pressure of the hit TV show is taking its toll on the teenager.
The singer, from Malvern in Worcestershire, was today photographed looking exhausted, with puffy eyes and a scowl as she made her way to the practice studios.
It comes just days after the X Factor hopeful admitted that she had a 'meltdown' before her appearance on last week's show.
The teenager, whose appearance has been likened to Cheryl Cole, confessed that she had thrown a strop because she was unhappy about what show stylists wanted her to wear.
Showing the strain: The hopeful looked like she was feeling the pressure
The contestants were today photographed ahead of their final preparations before the live show on Saturday. This week's theme is 'Musical Heroes'.
There are now just 14 left vying for the X Factor top spot - with a £1million recording contract prize and an almost guaranteed Christmas Number One.
In the girls group are Cher Lloyd, Rebecca Ferguson, Treyc Cohen and Katie Waissel, while the remaining boys are Aiden Grimshaw, Matt Cardle and Paije Richardson.
The over 28s are Mary Byrne, John Adeleye, Storm Lee and Wagner Carrilho, while the remaining groups are Diva Fever, Belle Amie and One Direction.

Diva Fever today looked like they'd made up after an alleged bust-up during rehearsals yesterday.
The camp duo - Craig Saggers and Joe Al-Smadi - apparently argued over who should take the lead in the performance this Saturday.
A source told Metro yesterday: 'Diva Fever have been arguing throughout the day on which lines each of them gets to sing of this week's song. It's not ideal with just 48 hours to go.'

Fans' favourites: Aiden Grimshaw, left, pulls a face for the cameras, while an indecisive Matt Cardle carries a selection of shirts into the studio
Matt Cardle - one of the favourites to win - clearly couldn't make up his mind about what to wear, carrying a selection of shirts into the studio.
Another of the fans' favourites, Aiden Grimshaw, went for a patriotic look with what looked like a Union Jack around his neck.

Which way? One Direction look unsure of which direction to take to the studio
Making moves: Choreographer Brian Friedman gets ready to put the contestants through their paces, while over 28s finalist Mary Bryne looks confident
