The X Factor Australia Season Four – Boot Camp Concludes- Top 24 and SuperGroup Revealed!

Previous Episode: The X Factor Australia Season Four – Boot Camp Continues!

Bella Ferraro was in the middle of her song before stopping still. Will she do enough to go through? Who is the Top 24 and WHO is the X Factor SuperGroup?

Here’s a run-down of Bella’s song as we left it last night…

 

DAY 2

Bella Ferraro

Singing: Don’t Dream It’s Over by Crowded House. (see yesterday’s episode recap for iTunes’ link)

She manages to pick up again, but is it too little too late?

Judges’ Comments: Natalie just tells her to believe in herself. The judges know she sings better than anyone and Ronan at least thinks she can get her through her word-forgetting. The judges have a talk to her back stage.

Now, back to the rest of the bunch:

Vendulka Wichta

Singing: Your Song by Elton John Your Song - Rocket Man - The Definitive Hits (Australian Tour Edition 2011)

Judges’ Verdict: The judges think she’s incredible. I agree.

Shiane Hawke

Singing: Battlefield by Jordin Sparks Battlefield - Battlefield - Single

Judges’ Comments: The judges saw that when the crowd reacted she gave it all she got! Guy loves the cute factor but they’re looking for a superstar.

Adil Memom (and he’s brought along a friend- a hoarse throat!)

Singing: The Boys of Summer by Don Henley The Boys of Summer - The Very Best of Don Henley

Judges’ Comments: Despite his bad throat- he does SPECTACULARLY! A STANDING OVATION! Guy tells him he wouldn’t have even known. Ronan actually tells him to lose his voice more often.

Chris Cayzer

Singing: Baby, I love Your Way by Peter Frampton Baby I Love Your Way - Peter Frampton: Greatest Hits

Judges’ Comments: Mel liked that a lot.

Foursome

Singing: P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) by Michael Jackson P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) - The Essential Michael Jackson

Judges’ Comments: Guy loved how they put that together in such a small time frame.

Samantha Jade

Singing: Not Over You by Gavin Degraw Not Over You - Not Over You - Single

Judges’ Comments: The judges loved it! Ronan would buy her record.

Hayden Maurirere

Singing: Rise and Fall by Craig David Rise & Fall (Featuring Sting) - Slicker Than Your Average

Judges’ Comments: He stuffed up a bit and the judges are dumb founded.

William Singe

Singing: Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen Call Me Maybe - Call Me Maybe - Single

Judges’ Comments: The crowd go crazy and the judges know it!

Justin Standley

Singing: Higher Love by Steve Winwood Higher Love (Full) - Back In the High Life

Judges’ Comments: Natalie thanks him. It moved her. The other judges also approve.

Jason Owen

Singing: Fire and Rain by James Taylor Fire and Rain - James Taylor: Greatest Hits, Vol. 1

Judges’ Comments: Natalie says he has to work on his performance but his voice is ‘delicious’. The others agree.

Josh Brookes

Singing: More by Usher More - Raymond vs. Raymond

Judges’ Comments: The judges saw that he put everything into that and the public loved him. Very good.

Angel Tupai

Singing: If I Was A Boy by Beyonce If I Were a Boy - If I Were a Boy - Single

Judges’ Comments: She has Natalie in tears. Ronan thanks her for such an unbelievable performance.

With that all done, it’s time to find out who the judges will be mentoring, who the final 24 is and who will be in The X Factor Australia’s first ever SuperGroup.

    I felt strange when the judges only sent in four acts in the groups category, only to realise later that they left the two spaces for the boy band and the girl band.
    I was relieved that Bella was given another chance after she stumbled during her performance in front of the live audience. If she faltered during home visits her dream would be over.
    I don’t think we’ve seen performances by Morgan Sheather, Danielle Blakey and Rob Vegas during auditions and boot camp, they must be very good that they made it to the top six in their respective categories. I guess we will find out if Seven will show any footage during next week’s episodes.

      Don’t know about Rob or Danielle, but Morgan did feature during the auditions. Actually, both Danielle and Rob made on screen appearances during boot camp.
