Excitement: Diana Vickers arrives at the BBC Radio 1 studios carrying a box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts, where she learns she is No.1She was knocked out of the 2008 series of The X Factor in the semi-final.
But today Diana Vickers showed she didn't need the talent show Goliath behind her as she shot straight to the top of the charts with her debut single.
Her track Once knocked previous number one Usher's OMG off the top spot when the official charts were announced this evening.
Arriving at the BBC Radio 1 studios today, Vickers looked ready to celebrate as she carried a bumper box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts from Harrod's.
Vickers signed a record deal in March last year, but was given permission to put the recording of her album on hold so she could star in the West End production of Little Voice, for which she received rave reviews.
During her time on the X Factor, Vickers stood apart from the other candidates for her insistence on performing in bare feet and 'The Claw', the nickname for her bizarre hand movements while singing.
In a recent interview, she promised fans she would try to tone down her 'claw'.
If Cheryl could see me now: Vickers was Cheryl Cole's protogee on the show, but was voted off in the semi-finalShe said: 'The claw - oh God. I don't even know why I do it, I have no idea. I literally just go free when I'm singing and I do really weird things.
'I haven't even sung live for ages as me, as Diana, so there might be some new movements popping up somewhere. I don't know, we'll see.'
