Eliminated 'X Factor' Contestant Drew Ryniewicz: 'I Really Want A Clothing Line'

After her disappointing elimination on ‘The X Factor’, Drew spoke exclusively with HollywoodLife.com to discuss her post-plans — and they surprisingly don’t involve music!

Drew Ryniewicz may have shined in her performances week after week on The X Factor, but her elimination on the Dec. 1 episode may have led her to pursue other endeavors after the show! Drew told HollywoodLife.com exclusively what she plans on getting involved with — and it’s fashion designing!

“Oh my gosh! I really want a clothing line,” Drew told HollywoodLife.com exclusively. “Every singer has something else on the side that they do whether they do a clothing line or a restaurant. Everybody has something and I want a clothing line, because I have a lot of haters for my clothes and a lot of lovers for my clothes.”

Drew also told us what we can expect to see in her potential collection. “I feel like all the dresses I wore in the competition is exactly what I want my clothing line to be. Maybe something that is not the style of the moment.”

As for a signature look, Drew has one particular idea in mind. “Feathers are a huge thing for me, I actually love feathers. I don’t like to kill animals so they would probably be fake feathers.”

What do you think HollywoodLifers? Would you be happy to see Drew as a fashion designer, or should she stick to singing?

I think she should go for it re: her clothing line aspirations. Her clothes remind me of the designer Betsy Johnson. Simon really didn’t do her any favors by pigeon holing her as the girl -who sings everything really slow . X Factor could probably make this up to her by arranging a duet with Justin Beiber.

As admitted by the maestro himself, it was squarely Simon’s fault for “molly-coddling” Drew as though he was trying to pull strings to have his “girls” reach the top. As for Drew, she may have received more viewer votes to have kept her in the top five if not for very obvious favoritism shown by Simon toward this girl. As for Marcus, he nailed it in the survival duel. He handled the situation extremely professionally and delivered his song in a masterful manner to win the hearts of the three judges who favored Drew being sent home as a result. I was particularly impressed with little Astro – who handled his elimination better than many adults would have. I feel this little guy would beat a $5 dollar contract by making billions in no time if he continues his career in his current stride.
