SHE might not have won The X Factor... but Diana Watson is a winner thanks to the Evening Times.

Diana’s face might ring a bell.

She took part in the 2009 round of the reality television show, coming face-to-face with Simon Cowell and giving the mogul a good telling off for being cheeky.

The 67-year-old appeared with her dog Jazz as musical duet All That Jazz.

Glasgow Times: Diana Watson of Rutherglen..We have a WINNER of the £1000 lottery. She bought the winning newspaper from her local newsagents...She was absolutely delighted and actually starred in 2009âs X-Factor auditions with her singing dog Jazz...

Sadly, the pooch took stage fright and failed to perform on the night, leaving Dianna singing I Will Survive all on her own.

Fans of the show won’t need told how Simon was left less than impressed.

But now Dianna, from Rutherglen, has a reason to smile.

She is the winner of the Evening Times Lottery - and she couldn’t be any more delighted.

The grandmother-of-three said: “When I was on The X Factor I was so surprised at how much of me they showed on the programme. I had more time on the telly than the Prime Minister.

“Winning this is great, it’s really, really great.

“I’m just all excited, I can’t get over it. You see other people win these things but you never think you’ll win them yourself.”

Dianna now intends to share her £1000 prize with her three children, Scott, 33, Claire, 39, and Julie, 36, as well as her ex-husband.

The Church of Scotland support worker added: “As soon as I realised I had won I called Scott in Australia and told him, ‘There’s going to be some pounds coming your way’.

“I don’t know what they will spend their money on but I’m going to take my sisters out for dinner.”

Dianna has three grandchildren - Sienna, who lives in Australia and is about to turn two, two-year-old Bradley and Francis, who is not quite one yet.

As well as a big family, she also has five cats and two dogs.

Dianna added: “I’ll definitely be feeding them with a few wee treats too.

“It might sound generous that I’m giving all the money away but whatever you give away comes back.”
