Gibraltar - 30th April 2015 - Sam Bailey, X Factor winner today held a press conference at the Sunbourne hotel prior to her performance at the May Day celebrations tomorrow. During the press conference she told Minister Steven Linares that she wished to live in Gibraltar. Speaking about Simon Cowell and her music careers she admitted she was "glad" to have been "dropped" by Simon Cowell, claiming that she believed she had been stayed with him she would have "been doing cover versions" which she did not wish to do. "I have been set free," adding that she didn't think that at 37 years of age Simon Cowell wanted her as she was unlikely to be like other younger stars. Sam explained she wanted to do her own songs and write some of her own music. In a very open and informal type of press conference, Sam Bailey recalled how she was presently living at her brother-in-laws, home with her husband and three children in one room, whilst she waited for her home to be refurbished. "I didn't want to move," she said explaining why she had not moved from her home and bought a new one. After the press conference Sam Bailey went to Casemates Square where she did a short sound check before deciding to have a walk through Main Street. She stopped at an electronic retailer, Carlos Alwani, where she bought a camera, before she headed to Irish Town, where she went to the popular bar The Clipper. Sam will be playing live at Casemates Square during the May Day Rally celebrations on the 1st May.
