Beyoncé's dad's new girl group reach 'X Factor' Boot Camp

Beyonce's dad's MTV girl group From Above have reached the Boot Camp stages of this year's X Factor UK.

From Above appeared with Matthew Knowles on the MTV fly-on-the-wall series Breaking From Above, which featured the girls being put through hardcore physical, vocal, media and choreography training by the US music exec and manager.

Knowles was famously the manager of Destiny's Child and worked as a producer and executive producer on many of the group's projects.

He previously claimed that his new five-piece reminded him of his daughter's multi-platinum group.

From Above have survived the cull of contestants from this year's X Factor, which reportedly featured 60 acts being booted off the show before even singing at Boot Camp.

The group have been allowed to audition for the ITV1 talent show following the change of rules from Simon Cowell, which now allows signed acts, or acts with management, to audition.
