Bianca Gascoigne hopes to get out of his father’s shadow when she auditioned for the X Factor.
This was the second stint in reality TV show of the daughter of the football legend. Her first TV show, Celebrity Love Island, wasn’t successful.
Unfortunately, Mr. Nasty Barlow slammed her vocal ability as being not 'good enough'.
Bianca said: 'Since I was young I’ve grown up in the public eye because of my dad, Paul Gascoigne, who’s like a legend at football.
'When I was like 19 I got asked to do a show called Love Island, it was an opportunity I thought ‘yeah why not I’m young, who would turn it down’, and obviously when I came out of there I was getting invited to all these parties, it was a whole new life, I was just living it up.
'I do look back and just think I just wish I was a bit more sensible, I hate the fact that people see me as this party girl because I have got so much more to me than that. I’ve always been a singer, this is something that I’ve wanted to do, and it’s been years and years I’ve thought this through to do it and now I’m here I’m just like ‘oh my god!'
She added: 'I just hope they don’t think I’m just doing this as another show, this is really what I want, I love singing and hopefully they can see that when I walk on stage, you know that I really do care and that I’m going to be nervous because it means so much to me.'
When Gascoigne sang her rendition of I'm Going Down by Mary J Blige, she got the same result from the judges’ votes.
Gary started things off by saying: 'If I could compare you with the other 25-year-olds we’ve had it’s really not good enough.
'What the other 25-year-olds have is that they’ve been singing like all their lives, seriously singing.
'At 25 you should be a lot better than that. In general, it was a bit of a mediocre audition.'
Louish Walsh tried to be more sensitive and said: 'Bianca you haven’t got a bad voice, you’ve got a great image you know, but it’s tough because we’ve got some amazing singers in this category already. '
Tulisa tried to sugar coat the bad news and said: 'I appreciate and admire the fact that you’ve come up and basically wanted to try something different and change the public’s perception of you.
'I think you’re a cool girl I’ve met you out a couple of times, but I’ve got to be honest i don’t think the vocals were strong enough for this competition.'
Guest judge Rita Ora was the last one to give her comment and said: 'I can tell you were nervous, but I agree with T, I think we’ve seen better singers.'
All go the judges voted no for Bianca so she was sent home as Tulisa explained to Rita and Louis that she found that whole audition 'really awkward'.
Unfortunately, some of the Bianca's famous friends didn’t like the decision and out on her behalf via Twitter with former Big Brother contestants Brian Belo and Imogen Thomas leading the way.
Brian said: 'They should of Bianca Gascoigne through on #XFactor I've seen people who were worse then her go through!!! She was good x'.
While Imogen wrote: 'Onwards and upwards...not meant to be gorge!!! Everything happens for a reason! Keep smiling hope your well @BiancaGascoigne xxx.'
