"Melanie Amaro has been crowned the first winner of the US version of The X Factor.
The 19-year old ballad singer, whose voice drew comparisons to Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey, beat runner-up Josh Krajcik to land a $5m (£3.1m) recording contract.
Amaro will also take a starring role in a new advertisement for Pepsi.
She had been tipped to win after an impressive rendition of Beyonce's hit "Listen" in Wednesday's live show.
Last night, she dropped to her knees and wept with joy, speechless at her victory."
