Maximum swagger: Cher Lloyd arrives at the signing of her new single, Swagger Jagger, at Westfield in London this week

X Factor finalist Cher Lloyd is favourite to take the number one spot in tomorrow's chart with her debut single, Swagger Jagger.

The 18-year-old singer and rapper is odds on to knock former X Factor compatriots JLS off the top spot after midweek results revealed she was top of the iTunes chart.

Even if her first release - which samples the melody from Folk Country song Oh My Darling, Clementine - makes it to number one, Cher says she has no intention of celebrating with a wild night on the town.

Speaking to the Sun newspaper, Cher said: 'I'll probably celebrate by having a night in with a Chinese and a glass of bubbly.'

Cher, who turned 18 last week, added that she may also buy herself a pair of Christian Louboutin's as worn by Victoria Beckham.

Despite the predicted success of her first single and plans to move to London later this year, Cher is keeping grounded with the help of her family.

She told the Sun: 'I'm still rough and ready. I've got a new job but that doesn't make me any different. I still have my mum, dad, brother and sisters.'

Cher told the newspaper: 'It is serious. I'm in love. I've never spoken about Craig before but I think he's the bee's knees.'
