The auditionees were all excellent, with a few of exceptions &#8211; Hungarian Greg, the Glee wannabe&#8217;s and the two strange lads. To get up on stage and sing in front of that many people takes guts, so well done to them all.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8002\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/loveyourmobile\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8002\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8002 \" title=\"X-Factor Judges on Stage\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/facebook-judges-350x262.jpg\" alt=\"X-Factor Judges on Stage\" width=\"350\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/facebook-judges-350x262.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/06\/facebook-judges.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8002\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">X-Factor Judges on Stage<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As expected there was the usual tantrums from Simon and Louis, with both of them walking off halfway through one guys audition, leaving him to sing the Girls Aloud hit &#8216;I&#8217;ll stand by you&#8217; to just Cheryl and Natalie, who joined him on stage and helped get the audience swaying and singing along.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We were all blown away by how good the acts were and a few really stood out and we&#8217;re sure that they will do really well.
