Whitney Houston is Alive in X Factor Contestant Lillie McCloud [Video]

THIS is why The X Factor is my favorite television talent show.  Each season I am immediately drawn in by big voices, amazing stories and outstanding talent.  And I know that I am not alone.  Last night, WBKR's American Idol expert Steve Thompson made a Facebook post about "the 54-year-old mom singing gospel" and claimed he too has already been sucked in to Season 3 of The X Factor.  And this is just one of the reasons why.  54-year-old Lillie McCloud.  She is INCREDIBLE and I swear you'll think the spirit and voice of Whitney Houston have found a new human host.  This resemblance in voice, appearance and mannerism is uncanny and this woman's talent is just unreal.  CHECK IT OUT!

What do YOU think?  Does Lillie remind you of Whitney?
