Katie Waissel (born 24 January 1986) is an English singer-songwriter who rose to public prominence through her appearance on the seventh series of The X Factor.

Known for her distinctive voice and outspoken personality, she became the tenth contestant eliminated from the competition, ultimately finishing in seventh place. Her time on the show brought her significant media attention and established her as a recognisable figure in British pop culture.

Following The X Factor, Waissel continued to build her public profile through music, advocacy, and television appearances.

She finished the programme in eighth place, once again attracting headlines for her candid approach and strong on-screen presence. Alongside her entertainment career, Waissel has become an outspoken mental health advocate, frequently using her platform to raise awareness around wellbeing and personal resilience.
