A woman has been charged with attempted murder after a car hit pedestrians near a central London nightclub in the early hours of Sunday.
Metropolitan Police named her as Gabrielle Carrington, 29, from Broadfield Road, Manchester.
The car hit three people in Argyll Street - near Oxford Circus station and the London Palladium - at around 4.30am.
Police said a woman in her 30s remained in a life-threatening condition and a man in his 50s had life-changing injuries. A third woman was treated for minor injuries.
Carrington has also been charged with grievous bodily harm with intent, actual bodily harm, and drink driving.
She will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Tuesday.
Carrington appeared in the X Factor in 2013 as part of a girl group, making it to the third week of live shows, and now has more than 360,000 followers on Instagram.
Video showed people in shock after the incident near the Inca nightclub, but police said they aren't treating it as a terrorist incident.
