What do you do when you have a dream?
A beautiful 18 year old girl named Gamu Nhengu wanted to fulfill her’s by entering Britain's’s X FACTOR talent show to possibly become a star singer.
But, she didn’t make it to the top and now faces deportation for herself and her entire family back to one of the most brutal dictators in the 21st century.
Wanting a dream to come true has caused her to suffer a real nightmare.
The Sun reports that a distraught X Factor reject Gamu Nhengu last night pleaded not to be deported to Zimbabwe, sobbing: "A firing squad's waiting for us."
The teen singer begged show judges Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole to stop her family being returned to Robert Mugabe's regime in a visa row.
And she told last night how X Factor has wrecked her life, weeping: "If I hadn't been on the show everything would be fine."
Talking exclusively to the News of the World in the first interview since her shock exit, Gamu explained why she is convinced tyrant Robert Mugabe's henchmen will kill her family if they are forced to return to their native Zimbabwe.
Gamu, 18, said they now faced deportation "just because I tried to do something that I wanted, that I loved."
And she added: "I've been in the public eye now and people there know I've fled Mugabe's regime. They will punish us if we go back. They're going to know where we are.
"We're going to be very unsafe. People have already been approaching our family members.
"We think they could be working for Mugabe. And we know how brutal he can be. I would be in danger, it's blatantly obvious. My family would be in danger."
Gamu added: "There's a firing squad waiting for us there and they're putting me in front of it."
