X Factor: Celebrity viewers were shocked by tonight's result, as Megan McKenna bagged the top spot.
The 27-year-old beauty won viewers over with a rendition of her original song This, defiantly refusing to do a cover for her X Factor send-off.
As soon as Dermot O'Leary announced the winner, Megan rushed to hug the other contestants – Jenny Ryan and Max and Harvey.
Though the former TOWIE star wasn't quite moved to tears, she kept clutching her face in disbelief.
Invited back on stage for her final performance, she sang a cover of Roxette's It Must Have Been Love, as her co-stars gathered behind her.
Megan made it clear tonight she's leaving her reality TV past behind her as she sets out to become a singing sensation.
