Melanie Amaro, the newly-crowned winner of "The X-Factor," is poised to be a big star. Below, check out three facts to know about her.

1. She plans to spend her $5 million prize in an unconventional way. Amaro told People magazine that her dream purchases would be a foot massage, a house for her mom, and a lifetime supply of chicken. "Life will change a lot," she said. "The most I have ever had before was $200, if I was lucky." Of course, the majority of her money will go towards her debut record with Sony.

2. She's spiritual. The 19-year-old, British Virgin Islands native is a devout Christian. She loves gospel music, and when she was named winner of "The X Factor," pretty  much all she could exclaim was, "God is good!"
