Dannii Minogue watches the Boys category audition in Series 4 (2007) of The X-Factor UK. Among the boys are Luke Bayer, Charlie Finn, Dominic Harris, Leon Jackson (Series 4 Winner), Rhydian Roberts (Series 4 Runner-Up), & Andy Williams. Full, unedited video of the entire category's performances.
This was Dannii's first year judging The X-Factor and the year had it's fair share of highs and lows for the native Aussie. Although two of her acts made it into the final two (Leon and Rhydian), Sharon Osbourne was said to hate Dannii off camera. In a later interview, Sharon went as far as to say that Dannii only got her job due to her looks. Before the 2008 season commenced, Sharon left the show and her chair was filled by Girl's Aloud singer Cheryl Cole.
Leon Jackson went on to win the fourth series of the show. Upon winning the show, he released his first single "When You Believe" and secured the coveted #1 Christmas Single and was the 4th best selling single of 2007. He released his debut album on October 20, 2008 hitting number 4 and 7 on the UK and Irish charts respectively. His first single, Don't Call this Love, also hit the top ten in both markets, but the longevity of the song was short lasting and soon fell off the charts. His second single, Creative, only managed to reach #94 on the UK Singles Chart. Stargazing, his third and final single from his album, failed to chart and he was soon dropped from Simon's Syco label.
Rhydian Roberts finished the show in the runner-up spot. The day after the finale, Simon offered Rhydian a recording contract and in 2008, he released his eponymous album and had it debut at #3 on the album charts, selling 90k in it's first week. His second album, O Fortuna, peaked at #25 on the album charts in 2009. In May 2010, Rhydian parted with Simon's label citing he believed that the label wasn't doing enough to promote him.
