  • Poor guy. Nice to see that Cheryl chick was sympathetic about it though, rather then kick him down to the ground like the rest.

  • i cried for him, he was really pretty good... i like him and think he has great potential, he's way better than cheryl too

  • Ffs - some of the people they let through the auditions are terrible and he was quite good - Not fair!

  • Nikk keep going! No matter what anyone says! I KNOW you can do it.. You're adorable, you have a great personality. And you can defiantly do it! NEVER GIVE UP. You practiced for eight years, you can't just give up just like that. Simon, be nicer. I mean for god's sake! "Stop Chasing Your Dreams." That's just evil. I used to fucking love you. You spoke the truth, you could do like anything and I would sitll love you and now.. I just don't know.

  • I want to hear them how they sings.

  • cheryl is to good for everyone

  • simon was right. someone has to wake him up.

  • not fair..he wasn't that bad..they are putting through people with worst voices..besides his has much better voice than Cheryl

  • Harsh.

  • pfft simon was right for the competition his voice isn't good enough. But was wrong to infer that he couldn't make it as an artist and to give up his dream. Barely any singers these days actually do have strong voices. Its called auto tune and studio effects, and play backs at live shows. Danii Minogue has one of the weakest voices going.

  • OMG ? I thought one of them are going to say "YES" but none of them ? Why are they being like this? They just love to hurt people do they ....Gosh !

  • @MozerellaChees3 why lie? he wasn't good at all, they were just being honest

  • @sephir91 That's YOUR opinion, bet you wouldn't say the same if that was YOU up there getting all no's.

  • For 20 upvotes...somebody had to tell him truth, even if he was good - there is big competition, you cant say yes for all!!! It is how it is...

  • She didn't wear the seatbelt!

  • hes good!

  • I actually think Simon had a point because he was only 24 and he has to realize that his voice is not going to get him anywhere. Being realistic, if he went to college and got some sort of degree he would probably have a pretty good job, whereas if he continued to waste his time with singing, he would be living off his mum and dad for the rest of his life or working in McD's.

  • Back to McDonald's you fucking loser, lmao

  • Cheryl feels awful. She's had an amazing journey while Nikk had to struggle. If I were her, I wouldn't be able to judge either.

  • Nikk is an amazing singer, he rocks everywhere, no matter the size of the venue. he recently played at my golf club and he was absolutely fantastic. from the same home town and he is soo genuine and willingly to talk to anyone and everyone. gets the dancefloor rocking and i believe one day he will make it! he has the voice and he deserves it! :D and.................he's fit in person hahhaha <3

  • too bad..

  • Shit singer. Got a fair judgement. Stop demonising the judges.

  • it makes me cry. don't know if youre out there but don't listen to anyone who tells you to give up and to anyone else out there who has had this happen to them. never give up. keep chasing your dreams. cause they're not over just because someone says they are... only you can break them. you decide. keep believing

  • Thumbs up if you thought it said mick jagger

  • His voice was alright, can sing a tune but northing to get really excited about. Simon asked how old Nick was and told that he had been trying for 8 yrs with no success so there must be some underlying reason for that. So what Simon said to Nick that it had gone on for long enough and would never happen was just blunt but not unrealistic/cruel.

  • The one time when i disagree with the judges...

  • He is good! :) Why did they say that?

  • yes this was all scripted to make Cheryl look like a real sweetheart with a big heart.

    nikk mager was in a boy band called phixx that was made of the 5 runners up and he left it in 2005.....interesting i wonder why there is no mentioning of that....

    Cheryl is really the humanitarian of the year!

  • they just did that cuz he was on another show...

  • Im trying not to cry.. ;-;

  • scripted

  • :'( this is really sad, he was good!

  • This guy has a magnificent voice, he certainly went up. I don't know about the jury, they had it completely wrong. I think they judged him wrong on his past. He's a great singer!!

  • I Actually Do Understand Why 124 People Disliked !!

    They Disliked The Decision Of The Jury !!!

    DUDE YOUR GOOD,,

    And Who The Hell Is Simon To Say You Should Stop Following Your Dream !!!

    Just Keep Practicing, Write Your Own Songs, Maybe Learn How To Play An Instrument

    And I"m Sure You Can Get There !!!!

  • @Roozzsalicious he sings through his nose if he sang properly he wouldn't sound anywhere near as good - plus he obviously doesn't fit in a band or else he would have made one true voice

  • fk this shit , he deserve to go up

  • I thought he was good! Thats sooo sad :(

  • Write your own songs, produce your own beats and record your own material. Don't let anyone tread on your dreams.

  • came here expecting to laugh... left crying ;'(

  • i don't think he sould't be quit singing

    singing is a passion !!! remember that

    cheryl did the thing she was suppost 2 do

    and supported him a long the way

    anyway simon said the competition rised and he did not

    .....

    or is it just me thinking or was he quite good

  • wow, wtf

  • Fugly cunt

  • Wow, way to stand by ur friend

  • i loved him.

  • he wasnt tht bad 

  • They put FAR worse people than him through! I don't understand.

  • :O I want him

  • How can he make the same final that Cheryl was in and yet the Xfactor judges say he wasn't good enough. His voice was certainly better than Cheryl's. Don't take my word for it, watch Cheryl on BBC's live lounge. I feel this man wasn't given his fair chance.

  • I thought he was good

  • I felt like he didn't believe himself when he sang. Maybe he could have picked a song that he was stronger at singing.

  • My god hes beautiful.

  • I feel so bad for him, he really wasn't that bad at all. I would've said yes. P.S. Cheryl looks stunning, as always.

  • i really prefered this way of auditioning as opposed to the stage

  • HWWWWWWWT

  • How could they say that. Nick is only 24 he can still have a career. He needs to keep trying.

  • HA HA HA HA HA HAAA

  • this was really sad, i low key cried =(

  • NO PEOPLE COME ON!! His voice was just not there! He was straining more than he was singing. He may be very good looking but he isn't all the way there. Stop being so ridiculous, his voice WAS NOT great. Plus what Simon told him was not mean, he was telling him the truth, which is nicer than most people did, telling him to keep singing. Plus it was obvious that Simon wasn't trying to be mean!!! He was telling him what he needed to know.

  • This program is insane! They put people through with absolutely no ear for music, or chance of winning, then say no to someone like this! It needs some real musicians on the panel; people who really understand music and not just the business of music! I don't mean any disrespect to Cheryl, or any of the singers who judge, as they are great entertainers and definitely have a place, but there also needs to be people who know the finer intricasies of music.

  • He wasn't bad, but for simon to say stop chasing your dream... what the fuck is that? No professional or judge should ever demotivate someone like that, especially not after 8 years of trying to improve.

  • @tehPWNINATOR He said at the start of the audition that he saw this as his last chance. Simon was just saying that he agrees with him.

  • @tehPWNINATOR well i wanna say: i do agree with what you say: but sometimes being harsh is the best way to break it to them, best way to get someone too let go that is; the world is cruel just have to accept it. atleast thats what i suspect the judges were doing anyways... not saying i agree with their decision, just giving them a reasoning for it

  • cristiano ronaldo lol

  • she is so beautiful, if she asked me to marry her, id say ok wheres the church..

  • OMG, My heart it´s almost .... omg..

  • OMG, he is so cute, it makes me crie-..:( 

  • i think he was very good!!!! but i also think they were right his voice is not too powerful..but i like his voice :)

  • He was bloody brilliant and proved them all wrong by headlining here Come the Boys and was fantastic!!! I've never seen anyone work so hard and be knocked like this before. That's so painful to watch after all these years, poor guy didn't deserve that. He's a sweet down to earth guy who should have made it big and is better than the crap in the charts sometimes. Life's so cruel xx

  • Awh, this made me cry! :( I thought he was really good!

  • I almost cried!!

  • Probably the first and probably the last X Factor contestant that i actually feel really sorry for, in my opinion he did a good job here and could have gone so much further had he been given the chance. My heart goes out to him because i know how it feels to be rejected on a massive scale. It's pathetic the shite they let onto this show and allow them to go as far as the live shows but they reject real potential talent like this.

  • What? He was really good!!! I hope he makes it

  • @fabledpilgrim I was trying to find it for weeks among all these comments. Thank u a lot!

  • wow !!! good love .

  • he should have gone to the next round

  • Poor dude. For all he's been through, a chance would have been the least they could have given him..

  • I Think this was all set up

  • wrong songchoise ...

  • OMG!!! He was awesome!! Simon is so mean!! I friggin cried watchin this!! D:

  • what about singing classes? he could have done it, did he? , poor guy 24 years chasing a dream to listen to those heartbreaking words :/

  • Bit of a lie:

    Simon says "you didn't make the band, and then what happened afterwards?"

    Nikk responds "just been singing in the working men's clubs back up north."

    Actually, after not getting into the winning 5 boys on Xfactor, the 5 losing boys formed the band Phixx, who weren't massively successful but still had four top 20 singles and a top 20 album, before Nikk quit the band in 2005.

    I understand he's back singing in skanky clubs, but he shouldnt make out that he had no success at all

  • What is the song during Cheryl's part? The violin music. I want to learn it.

  • @DoomsdayAUS FINDING BEAU BY CRAIG ARMSTRONG

  • @ScorpionsEynar FINDING BEAUTY

  • That would suck. Singing at what looks like a retirement homes bingo night for 8 years. Jesus!

  • "Just be honest"

    "Nah"

    "Huh?"

    "Nah"

  • Wow... he really wasn't that bad. He had a good voice, and he seemed like a cool guy... why didn't they let him through? They let Jedward through for fuck's sake :/

  • I have so met this beast. <3

  • does Cherly Cole have to be so beautiful? She is beautiful and she has a wonderful heart <3 dream of evey men

  • he should act.. he has a good look for it. And he shouldn't give up just because of what they said. If you believe in yourself no one can tell you nothing. I am sure all of us would support him.. He should do acting or broadway etc :D

  • The judges were way too harsh. He wasn't a bad singer. He hit every single note, even though his voice was a bit strained/choked. If he got a chance and some training to use his airway correctly he would have had amazing possibilities. They can't expect him to be a perfect singer on the first audition.

  • I think he needs to sing from the chest not throat

  • simon is a fucking moron ok maybe a bit out but not that bad to say you can never sing and never try out again geez

  • he looks like cristiano ronaldo

  • Question: does anyone know the name of the orchestral piece used in this clip?

  • :'(

  • JLS <3

  • Oooooh He's cuuute

  • no they were soo wrong! i think he was great!! simon just hate hearing guys sing ballets he said it before! but i think he was amazing! he deserves this!

  • and they don't always send through people who they think are going to win.

    I mean look at the 80 year old. He was funny but he wasn't going to win and couldn't sing, but I guess because he was so old they let him through anyway?

    They were being biased because he was on the show Cheryl was on and failed. :|

  • THEY smashed his dream..they should at least give him a chance..he would have more to offer..now i dont think he will sing again..

  • I don't understand. Worse people have gone through and I can't believe they said those things. I don't get why they would say such things, is it because he has tried before? Or maybe they thought he was arrogant or something.

  • they didn't say he has a bad voice !! they told him it's not good enough.. and Simon wasn't mean with him.. he said what should have been say.. he's voice is good.. but he can't be a singer cause it's not good enough.. so he better start looking for another dream, rather than one won't be real!!

  • i would love to see Simon sing,

    just so someone could judge him and tell him how bad he is so he knows how it feels.

    also it was way out of line to crush the man's dream. singing is about letting loose, expressing yourself and whether you're good or bad, it doesn't matter, no body should be told to stop following their dream.

    I wish Simon nothing but the shittest of luck.

    In conclusion, Simon's an dream crushing asshole.

  • That was one of the harshest, if not the harshest audition I've seen. Cheryl obviously felt uncomfortable to judge, but the other 3 were way too harsh. He'll still be crushed to this day with comments like that.

  • does he say at the end he needed cheryl?

  • LOL at the first guy thrusting in front of Cheryl with his creepy smile

  • this is so sad i think his great better than cheryl and them judges are so fuckin mean :(

  • Its awful....(';')

  • surely he wasnt the best but its a bit harsh to shatter someones dream like that.

  • he dose have a good voice but i can see why he didnt get threw it wouldnt be good enough to like win :( i feel bad for both of them cheryl must have felt awful

  • haha i luv the way simon and louis just both go "why?"

  • i hate seeing a person whose dreams are crushed, its heart breaking

  • @antaressuper1966 i know and they r sooo wrong hes actually good :'(

  • Haha. Simon really knows how to kill someone with words. That wasn't a brutal audition at first..then it might as well been a homocide. Ouch.

  • these judges are stupid, and i hope that they read or look at youtube videos

  • Urgh Poor guy. That would be soul crushing.

  • I thought he had a really good voice :(

  • That made me cry.Anyone else???

  • OH..MY..GOSH , THAT was harsh.. He's not bad at all? Hasn't he got a talent compared to the trash of music we hear today? Jeez judges, someone else deserved to hear that.. -.-

  • What the hell are wrong with these people? Jedward make it to the live shows, but they don't think NIKK'S voice is strong enough?

  • the judges were right, but still so sad to see his face realize his dream is over :(

  • Cheryl wanted his dick

  • wow, some people really should take simon's advice. I just saw a video of Nikk today, performing at the pride ball (a gay pride party) topless in an indian chief hat dancing like an idiot. His voice truly isn't good enough. He's a nice guy but can't let go....

  • She is so sweet <3

  • She likes him for sure lol

  • 2:42 ... xp

  • how could he have been on his last chance..24 isn't old!!..look at Matt Cardle and Olly Murs, they were both over 25 and have been incredibly successful.

  • cherly probably banged him

  • well, at least you got a hug from cheryl

  • I felt so bad watching this. He wasn't the best, let's be honest, but he wasn't completely awful. What hurt me was seeing him so crushed, so...destroyed. I have a lot of friends who are very talented singers, who want to audition for these types of shows, and I would feel so awful if I had to judge them.

  • @TDILuvr12 the same would go for me man it was like damm

  • @elod971 Nikk était un concurrent sur une émission de télévision appelée Popstars: The Rivals, avec l'un des juges, Cheryl Cole. Il a été éliminé, mais elle est devenue très réussie. Nikk est maintenant essayer pour X Factor. Il chante bien, mais Louis, Simon et Danii, les autres juges, ne pensent pas. Cheryl ne veux pas juger son ami, alors qu'elle quitte. Les trois juges ont dit «non», en écrasant le rêve de Nikk. Cheryl est bouleversée en voyant son amie étant blessé.

  • Am I the only one who thinks Cheryl is in LOOOVE WITH HIM

  • Simon is right...:/ poor guy

  • @Bathazzar Obviously no the judges (except Cheryl) enever heard the same voice and you and me did and I agree they should have gave him a chance

  • Holy shit, that is sad. Did they hear the same guy I did? I thought he was pretty good, and he seems really likable too. They should have at least given him a chance.

  • Me and my parents had a argument about this-I was saying he had a great voice but my parents said he was rubbish voice and who the hell could Louis not have recognised Nikk FFS

  • cheryl is so cute and hot .. i love her <3

  • I hated this, it still makes me cry! He doesn't mention his success with PHIXX though who he was in a band with from 2003-2005. They did a crakin' cover of Wild Boys by Duran Duran and charted etc.

  • He says "Yep, this could be my last chance" how old are you "24". No its not!

    Look at Susan Boyle...Actually, don't look at her.

    24?

  • wow wtf man?

  • OMG I just love cheryl, she has a great heart.

  • :'( i think he WAS good enough!! ;O

  • He has a great voice they don't need to be talkin

  • Whatever flak Cheryl got, there's no denying that X Factor was 10x better with the Simon + Cheryl combo.

  • Comment removed

  • he's not bad at all ?..

  • I don't watch the X Factor any more! Its not as good without Dannii, Cheryl and Simon! Its so serious now, its not funny any more!!

  • no mention of PHIXX AT ALL???

  • i feel bad for him

  • Who was the guy at 8 sec?

  • @RejectUrselfElement Austin Drage, singing End of the Road. :]

  • That was...pretty effin depressing. But I hope he continues to live on.

  • cheryl is a very skinny bitch

  • @DSGOKU10 I would have thought what she did here was the opposite of bitchy but whatever.

  • Sure he wasn't the best but to totaly shatter his dreams like that was a truly awful thing to do. I honestly have no respect for anyone who can thoughtlessly go about devaluing someones life like that.

  • Well said @FubsyNardis. So true.This was an awful thing to see.Anyone treating another person in that way and watching there pain and offering no remorse has some serious empathy issues.Such a nice guy.This was so UGLY.Guess it makes 'good TV' and boosts there ratings!!I rate Cheryl here.

  • I would have done exactly the same as Cheryl, it must have been hard to see that some who you auditioned with was still trying to make it when you had made it in the music industry!! Good on Cheryl Thats what I say <3

  • what is the music in 4:30 onwards??

  • Cheryl? Cheryl? Nah. LOL

  • He's very nasally, I wouldn't have put him through. Think he WOULD be better in a band, he can blend in. Very vulnerable on his own.

  • Comment removed

  • oh gosh i can totally feel what cheryl is feelings...

  • I feel so sad for him :(

  • way to shatter his dream...

  • i miss when cheryl was like this.

  • So slack...

  • He sing very good

  • i canr stop crying avery time i watch icryed more thencheryl

  • I hope he had done something worthy with his life, he must be 27 now.

  • i cryed like i never cryed befor OMG he is amazing and oh god i cryed soo hared 2 galsees of tears

  • Awwww i nearly cried ffs he has a good voice!!!!

  • Life and in this case "reality tv"can be so tough ...it strange seeing 2 people who started out together at the same spot ending up with 2 totally different destinies...

  • @bukkake999 Life can be so strange... Also I would say, that in my opinion Cheryl act very nice :)

  • @norbitbg Yep but then again it's one of those things if she hadn't, she would've been considered a total bitch by everyone lol...

  • Comment removed

  • His voice isn't bad! D:
