for her audition the 'petite, confident, yet coy, mancunian' sang "respect", 'with the ease and grace of a pro'. notably she added one of her own raps to the cover - "how do you make aretha franklin's 'respect' even more sassy? with a rap, of course!" at bootcamp she sang her version of "survivor" and at judges' houses she performed nicki minaj and rihanna's "fly". for the first week, misha sang "rolling in the deep". "the daily telegraph" regarded this performance as a highlight of the series, saying she "oozed star quality from the start... like a 21st-century grace jones or an urban lady gaga, the teenager seemed like a proper pop star already." for the next two weeks bryan sang "would i lie to you?" and "purple rain". in week four she sang "tainted love", but was in the bottom two and had to sing for survival in the final showdown against sophie habibis. after singing "use somebody" as her survival song, she was unanimously saved by the judges, and barlow's vote was unnecessary for the result. however it was revealed that habibis received more votes than misha b meaning if the result went to deadlock, habibis would have been saved. for the fifth week, misha b sang "proud mary". on week six, misha sang "born this way", but again she landed in the final showdown against brucknell and sang "who you are" as her survival song. walsh (brucknell's mentor) voted to eliminate her, but tulisa, rowland and barlow voted to save her. however voting statistics revealed that brucknell received more votes than misha b meaning if barlow sent the result went to deadlock, brucknell would have been saved. on week seven, misha sang "i have nothing". barlow also told misha b "i want to see the misha b we saw at the first audition", which led to misha singing "girls just want to have fun" and "killing me softly with his song" on the eighth week. misha b ended up in the final showdown for the third time in the quarter-final, and sang "out here on my own", with walsh and tulisa voting to send misha b through to the semi-final, and rowland refusing to vote between her and janet devlin, meaning misha b was saved. barlow also revealed he would have voted to send misha b through to the semi-final. however voting statistics revealed that devlin received more votes than misha b meaning if the result went to deadlock, devlin would have advanced to the semi-final and misha b would have been eliminated. on 3 december, misha sang "dancing in the street" and "perfect", but she was voted out of the competition, finishing in 4th place. for her farewell performance "misha b busted out a short self-penned rap, before segueing into a blinding rendition of jessie j’s who you are."
