Until now, no one has made it clear what you need to do to win the X Factor. Because of this, year after year you see people hopelessly trying to impress the judges in ways that clearly don't work. The funny thing is, some of these people were actually quite talented, but slipped up in some way or other. All seemed to be going well, but then they d...
This section will look at how to do well at an X Factor audition. The first thing you need to do is apply online and depending on your country of residence this shouldn’t be too hard. Just simply google “X-Factor Auditions” and you should be taken to your relevant countries website where you can apply. That’s the easy bit done as it really doesn’t ...
The thing many people fail to understand is that X-Factor is a TV show first and foremost and its aim is to get ratings. So I can reveal that from the get go all the judges are told to put through contestants who are either really good or really bad. I remember talking to Louis Walsh and he likened their selection process to putting through “the go...
Remember it’s vitally important you create a good impression with the judges and first impressions are normally the most important. You want to look good and actually look like a pop star. I remember Simon Cowell said once that very often if someone walked in for an audition who looked like a pop star he would already be secretly wishing they could...
The song you choose to audition with really can make or break you. It might sound obvious but you need to pick a song you actually know the words too. I can’t even tell you how many people would start miming half way through some of the pre-auditions. You might get through as one of the “ugly” acts however you will be going home soon after and it’s...
When you're picking a song to confront the judges with, it's often best to pick a song that the judges will know. If you are unsure as to what type of songs these judges would be aware of, pick a song that has either done well in the charts or is a classic. Bear in mind that these judges are music experts in their own right, so stick to this select...
On a side note, I've often seen people make one killer mistake when deciding on an audition song, and that is choosing a song that they personally made themselves. Surely that's a good idea as they'll get to hear you song writing abilities? Well, not really… The thing is, the judges often want something to compare you against. If you're singing you...
Nerves are only natural and everyone will get them. Working behind the scenes in the early years I got to see everything. I even know of one major contestant who locked themselves in a toilet on one of the live shows, seconds before they were meant to perform! We had to calm her down and luckily got someone to fill her slot but it just shows you ho...
As I explained earlier the production team are only looking to put through acts who are either really good or make good TV. This is when having a good story can be what makes or breaks your life on the X-Factor. When I worked on the show many people soon realised that if you had a sob story then that would normally work well for getting you through...
As I have just stressed the importance of having some sort of back story to get you a full audition, it’s important not to make anything up. It can be tempting just to make something up so you can get in front of the judges and then have a good chance of getting through to boot camp however your lies may well end up coming back to bite you when you...
