Starboy Nathan a former Big Brother contestant set to take the X Factor by storm

Starboy Nathan, a former Big Brother contestant look set to take the X Factor by storm.

The professional singer has taken advantage of the changes to the rules that permits singers with management deals to enter the competition for the first time this year.

The 26 year old who attended the Manchester auditions, has already had Top 40 Singles hits with “Come into My Room” and “Diamonds” and has previously supported The Wanted, N-Dubz and former X Factor runners up JLS on tour.

He has 86,000 followers on Twitter, however his last single – titled Hangover – was released on 12 September and only reached number 92 on the UK singles chart. But his singles chart positions could all change when he appears on the nation’s TV screens in The X Factor auditions.

Having previously starred in E4′s Big Brother Celebrity Hijack, Nathan admitted last year that he would consider entering the X Factor if he didn’t have a record deal. He told Metro:

‘I’ve done so many talent shows and I like competing, so if I didn’t have a record deal I’d have 100 per cent done The X Factor. It’s about having talent, not eating pigs’ balls.’
