X Factor star Lizzy Pattinson reveals she turned to brother Robert Pattinson for advice


September 30, 2014

The X Factor's Lizzy Pattinson has shied away from revealing her Hollywood connection in the competition. But that's not to say she hasn't turned to her little brother Robert Pattinson for a bit of advice during her time on the show. Lizzy, 31, who will soon be seen in LA with mentor Simon Cowell during the Judges' Houses round, has revealed that Robert has been helping her out with her bid for stardom.

"I sent him a link to the songs for the Judges' Houses, and he said, 'They sound really cool'," she told HELLO! magazine.

"One of the songs was quite obscure and he thought it was really good."

I'm surprised how interested he is in it," Lizzy added. "He watched the first episode I was in. He gave me feedback and that meant a lot to me. "When personal assistant Lizzy first auditioned on the X Factor, Simon appeared to recognise her. "Have we met before? You look familiar," he said.

Rather than revealing her connection to Robert, she joked, "Maybe in your dreams", before going on to impress all four judges with her rendition of It Feels Like Home.

The Rover actor Robert, 28, recently revealed how impressed he was with Lizzy for auditioning for the show, saying he wouldn't dare do it, "ever, not in a million years".

"I'm like, so ridiculously proud of her," he told Grazia. "I can't believe she's done it. So it's amazing."
