X Factor—Simon Cowell’s competition talent show from across the pond–aired it’s 4th audition show tonight, and I’m hearing it was a big pile of meh, except for one contestant, 25 year-old Olly Murs from Essex, England.
He has no backstory to speak of, but I don’t think he’ll need one. He’s cute, he can sing, and all 4 judges flove him. Olly’s soulful rendition of Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition” won him kudos all around.
Although, I have to say, Olly’s “dancing” would have gotten one of Simon’s “drunk uncle at a wedding” comments if it were American Idol. Why is Simon like a different person when when judging in his homeland?
