X Factor vocal coach Yvie Burnett has insisted that Rachel Hylton is easy to work with.
Burnett praised the fiery mother-of-five for changing her attitude after she received a warning from Simon Cowell at the Boot Camp stage of the competition.
"Rachel is a handful and at first I didn't know what she would be like with me, but she is great," Yvie told the Daily Record. "She's very respectful and does everything I ask, like an obedient schoolgirl.
"She is very honest and says what she thinks and I think that as long as she controls it, the public will love that. I'm really fond of her and she has a really unique voice and that's not something you can manufacture."
Burnett also claimed that 22-year-old Austin Drage will go far in the competition if he manages to stop appearing "desperate" in the coming weeks.
"There's not a lot he can't do. He can hit all the high notes and sings with a lot of passion. He has it all," she said. "He kept getting comments from the judges that he seemed too desperate, but if I can calm him down and make him realise that all he needs to do is stand there and sing, he'll be fine."
