Louisa Johnson stormed to victory on X Factor back in 2015 and even took a trip to Los Angeles with her mentor, Rita Ora.
Speaking exclusively to express.co.uk, the 19-year old confessed that it was every bit as fun as it looked.
She said: “It is [so fun] because you get to go away for the first time and it was the first time I went away without my family and that made it more fun for me.
“It’s cool being away from your parents. It was really amazing!”
Louisa also confessed that although she is grateful to the show for everything it has given to her, she found it hard at the time.
“That was actually a really hard time for me because I was so young and I didn’t really know what was going on,” the Tears hitmaker admitted.
Louisa is currently the face of Matalan’s charity campaign which aims to raise money for Alder Hey’s children’s hospital.
The pop star explained: “Matalan are making pyjamas for their spotty campaign and they’re going to be sold around the country.
“All of the money goes to the children’s hospital. I went to visit them and they have all this really cool equipment to make it more children friendly and keep the children calm.”
The pyjamas are available to buy now from here.
X Factor continues tonight on ITV at 8pm.
