FINAL UPDATE: We Have A Winner!!
Twenty five year old Liane Doherty made history on Saturday
the 7th of November by emerging the first ever Just out of this
World” winner.
Liane has been singing professionally since the age of sixteen
and has had the opportunity of singing with some of the
greatest names in the secular music industry including Britney
Spears, LL Cool J, J-lo and Mis-teeq.
Her desires and aspirations changed when she accepted Christ into her life at the age of 18.
She puts it well in her own words when she says “I have had many opportunities to make an album but within me I felt a strong desire to go all out for God……I wanted to be a worshipper not an artist with the world’s mentality or methods.
I wanted to break out from the mould and be who I was created to be…a worshipper”
Liane and Alicia Banton (aka Prayze) were the only two out of the 13 finalists to make it to the finals of the UK gospel talent quest, “Just out of this World”. After the studio audience votes were added to the previous week’s votes, Liane emerged a worthy winner.
Congratulations Liane and well done.
UPDATE 3: The Story so far…

UPDATE 1
Finalists receive training in both vocal skills and performance and get the opportunity of performing before thousands each week.
A panel of judges comprised of leading praise and worship artist Muyiwa, former X Factor finalist Grace Campbell, record producer Marcus Johnson and singer/vocal coach Mary Eniolu will decide which contestants pass the auditions and make it through to the final
shows.
The judges have their say after every performance, but it's the viewing public (via Relevation TV) that determine who will advance to the next round of competition and who eventually wins the prize of a CD recording, music video, professional photo shoot and the Just out of this World title.
Voting lines open immediately after each show and the results are announced at the start of
the next show.
