2011 Live Shows 1: Marcus Collins nailed Maroon Five and Christina Aguilera’s ‘Moves Like Jagger’

Marcus Collins is one of our favourite contestants this year. From the moment we saw his audition we felt that there was something special about this lad and he showed it once again tonight.

The 23-year-old took on Maroon Five and Christina Aguilera’s ‘Moves Like Jagger’ and shone from the moment he took to the stage. Marcus is a star and we believe he will do his home town of Liverpool proud in this competition.

Gary Barlow admitted that he had high hopes for Marcus, saying that he is great at taking advice and is ‘just like a sponge’ when it comes to tips, pointers and critiques of his performance. Check out the video below.
