They should have told him to go recover backstage. I get incredibly stuffy and nasally after I cry even if it's just a little bit. I could have not sung after that. I'd need about 20 minutes to recover.

Honestly respect to Cheryl for stepping back because of a conflict of interest. Whilst the poor man was heartbroken, she was professional enough to step back and be his friend
She wasn’t professional at all. She was a coward and shrank from the moment. If she wanted to be professional, then she would’ve stepped away before the bloke began singing.
@@rockingredpoppy9119 How are you mad lol. Do you not realize that she actually judged his performance? She just didn’t state her opinion out loud. She listened to it and decided that he wasn’t going to make it and that’s when she removed herself from the judges chair. So it’s fair to assume that if he had sounded good, she would have voted him into the next round. So, that’s not really and truly being objective and fair.
My question is, disappointed Brittany about what??? BTW, Brittnay's voice is no Celine Dion either. If it weren't because of the planning and rehearsals and echo added to her voice she would probably sound just as bad as this guy if unprepared.
It's actually pretty depressing to see that someone has already had a singing career and couldn't keep it and had to come on to x factor to try and get it back again
The people who I feel deserved the chance was Christina Grimmie and Jordan Pruitt. Christina was famous on UA-cam and went on the voice to finally have a shot and Jordon Pruitt went because Disney did her dirty
Tried to give the first dude the benefit of the doubt and checked out a couple of his songs on Spotify. He seemed overly nervous and like he was either on something or coming off something during his performance and thought that might have been why his voice was so rough. Most of the songs he had are way over produced like they're trying to improve his voice, but there was a couple songs that you could hear him clearly without anything enhancing him and it wasn't terrible. It wasn't the greatest in the world, but it was much better than that performance. Hopefully he's in a better place in now, because I honestly thought I was going to find out he was dead when I looked him up.
watch the full audition. They literally tried for 10 minutes to make him explain what he had been doing all those years since his duet with Britney, and all he did was say how unworthy and untruthful he was, because he was gay, it was really tiresome and awkward, and on top of that accused Britney of being a homophobic. Not to mention his lack of singing skills.
the first guy was good, his vocal chords were swollen and he was emotional and broken. i wish he could've shown his full potential, he couldve been soooo good
rachel eliza I agree! When you cry your sinuses get messed up and kind of stuffy and it’s hard to sing. He actually did really well considering he was crying moments before he started singing!
The first guy just couldn't sing coz of the depression he had. He literally had a breakdown before and after his performance. He needed time to recover.
@@tylerverner3066 it wasn't terrible but it also wasn't pleasing, I think it might have been that he had a breakdown, his voice sounds like its one that can sing but he just didn't have the composure to sing at that moment
Imagine one of the most famous record executives of all time hears your audition and tells you, "It's never going to work out, give up on your dreams." I can't even imagine the heartbreak. I respect Simon for his brutal honesty, it really seemed like he wasn't being mean but was legitimately trying to save the guy from any further disappointment. But still, that's just so tough to hear. I hope that guy is doing well.
I don’t think that’s helpful for people to give up their dreams. Adjust it and tune into practicality, yes. But not give up on the things that drive you.
@ No she doesn't, she's a good person that cares for others. She's actually very sensitive, she may seem cold but that doesn't mean she's always cold. She's literally a LEGEND in the Music Industry along with others, she's been singing for a really long time she knows how to spot talent. She also knows what talent is because she has it herself, she doesn't care about herself she cares for others around her and she cares for her loved ones.
@ Hmm... Let's see that guy was singing a song about candy girls, and he was basically singing to every girl in the whole audience which is creepy. And he had a horrible voice, when I heard his voice I felt like my ears were going to bleed. So I don't blame Britney for making faces at his singing, and once he was done singing he's the one who insulted Demi and he's the who was being rude to Demi first so Britney had every right to insult him back. And yes Demi does use autotune but when she sings live it's real and it's her real voice. Same with Britney, Britney may use autotune but when she sings LIVE it's her real voice. Your acting like the only people that use autotune in the Music Industry are Demi and Britney let me tell you something sweetie everyone EVERYONE uses autotune in the Music Industry. The only people that don't use autotune that much in the Music Industry are the people that have been around for a really long time. And by the way, that guy that your talking about in your comment the audition person, once Britney said something to him he insulted L.A. and then walked off the stage. So not only did he insult Demi he insulted L.A. as well. And not only did he insult one judge he insulted two judges as well. So Britney had every right to insult him back, that guy was delusional.
The worst part was when he said backstage “I didn’t meant to hurt Britney” like he wasn’t hurt that he couldn’t make it to the show,he was hurt cause he felt like it was all his fault
I’m so glad Don never gave up and is still putting out great music!!! He was having horrible anxiety issues. They never showed ALL of what went on. He was clearly triggered by something. Ummm withdrawals and anxiety are not the same thing. Please don’t NARCAN someone having a panic attack. 😳😬🤣 He’s a wonderful person and I hope he succeeds in his dreams.
She should have hired to her production team, he clearly has an ear for it all (since he had performed with her before) and had nothing but her best interests in mind, that on top of 6 years of production experience? I would hire him
Same. It’s a good lesson that you shouldn’t invest all your energy towards a person. They most likely will disappoint you sadly... I hope he’s okay, that really got to him.
Risik Gempur I get that she can't give & give & give endlessly to every self-described überfan, but I think that this guy was *definitely* in need of support & comfort in this moment. I'm always anti-misleading-encouragement, but a few kind words from B. would have meant a great deal to him, esp. to his self-esteem.
nena CasBas Yup, it's a Catch-22. Be kind to a fan & you could end up w/a stalker, or worse. And maybe you tick off other, unstable fans rabidly jealous of the attention paid to someone other than them.
@@anonymous-cx7ng Well, apparently Brittany and the first guy known each other for years. They sung together and the first guy has been depressed since he hadn't seen her for 10 years. When Brittany said "no" The first guy broke down crying saying he's sorry for Brittany. I think that he misses her and wants to be with her (not romantically) I think he developed stress, nervousness and depression from coming out (as being gay) and the death of his lover so that's why he's acting like that. Hope he is okay..
Macie Nicholas no she felt uncomfortable and sad, did you see her face when she gave him a no? she felt disappointed to give him a no knowing he looked up to her it wasn’t easy for her either
@@get_lost6227 giving false hope is not horrible. It'll teach them to become better, hope means that there's a chance and not that their voice is absolutely beautiful.
The first guy's voice was affected by his emotions. He does have a singing voice... but when you're emotional like that, you lose control of your nerves, your control and most likely, you get congested from the tear production.
Being choked up definitely DOES effect the quality, the tone and the sound of a voice. Everything swells up and you end up incredibly pitchy, yet this guy wasn't actually effected too much.... more so lack of control over it, lack of talent~sorry to say. He seemed a sweet guy who's heart was more set on Brittany than singing... he just wanted to be in her orbit.
If you have Britney’s first album, her duet with Don Phillips is one of my favourite songs there! He’s been though a lot probably, but he had a really good voice! He was probably extremely nervous at that time
Of course man, when you are emotional and after crying, there is a "cry voice" that is still there. You just can't speak normally. If you get what I'm trying to say....
The first guy made me sad. You can tell Britney felt awful. However, you can tell Don has been through a lot of personal issues. Hope he finds peace. 💜😔
Ryan Khan Not true. I saw his Instagram. He seems like he’s showing happy face but inside he’s hurt and it looks like the music industry was part of his hurt. But he’s been singing at weddings for friends. He ain’t acting. He’s going through stuff. Let alone a psychologist check him and you’ll know I am right.
Almost all guys who "deserve the best" dont get the best or even the mediocre because they simply "wait" for something that isnt gonna come to them.. same with the women who "deserve the best"... they all seem to not care for themselves enough to give themselves the best
That first man was not okay. I felt so bad for him. He was worried about hurting Britney, but honestly she just looked so sad to be hurting his feelings having to say no. I really hope that man found support in his life. He seems like such a sweetheart, and I don't think he was done with his struggles with worthiness.
Don melted my entire heart. Everyone’s saying Britt didn’t give him a hug, but I don’t think ppl understand... she was hurt too... it’s clear... it was probably completely awkward for her. She was very uncomfortable in that clip.
Yeah plus Simon was the only one to comfort her asking if she was ok because he could clearly see how hurt Brittany had become especially after seeing how much it affected her all that time and so much hurt
if someone can not face the truth, then they won't grow up. I feel so bad for Britney, it's not easy to say no in that situation and she was kind enough to "find him a reason before she said no". Man, I hope he listens to the song "Stronger", and be strong.
Theres actually a post about the first guy and how he was forced to tell the people backstage before the show that he was gay, which he kept a secret, and they began spreading the rumor, so it made him nervous that they might reveal the secret when he was on stage, so he began crying because he both hadn't seen britney and was nervous about the secret. His crying didn't let him sing right, and when he was voted out, people began talking about his secret. His mom stopped talking to him, and he began getting thoughts on suicide, although,luckily, he didnt. But the least Brittney could've done was hug him and comfort him.
Mom should be his most understanding ally of all,I'm a dad of boy and two girls and my only son turned out to be gay,I accepted it without reservations at all.I support all three of them whatever they want to be.
@@theislander9034 I don't watch the show, so sorry if this sounds ignorant...but couldn't she have said yes anyways? I thought they needed 2 or 3 "yes" to get though. She could've thrown him a bone.
He does have a good singing voice. I’m telling you, it’s just of how emotional he was. You know how when you are emotionally drained and crying, you can’t really control your breathing or how you speak/sing. I can hear the beauty in his voice. You can really see how his heart shattered when Britany said no. I feel so bad for him. He DOES have a good singing voice
Its clear that the first guy was suffering from depression, I feel the judges could have been a little Less harsh Oof I didn't mean to cause debate with this comment
@@ilovemygirlfriend0430 - Really? So we should lie to people to save their feelings? I guess since the Astros wanted the World Series real bad last season we should just give it to them, huh?
Sidra Swann DEFINITELY. he had some good spots in there but other times. it just hurt. he needs more practice and a song better suited for his voice. song choice is so key when going on these shows. you need something that fits you and shows off your skills well. for me, i know one of my best songs is If I Die Young by the Band Perry. Id be an IDIOT to pick..say...a lot of other songs honestly. i have a weird voice that seriously, only works with certain songs. and it takes time to figure them out. again. especially for me because im such a person to attempt to sing like the original artist which is damaging when learning to sing because you set back what you’re good at and focus on stuff you arent.
Simon has some nerve to say that Nikk needs to something with his life where he’s not going to get rejected. Nikk can sing. Simon is a not a record producer whatsoever. Before One Direction came out I can’t name one artist that he signed that people still listen to. Simon doesn’t even have a dam High School Diploma. Do you know many record executive had to get educated and go to school to know what achieve later on. The only reason why Simon is relevant to the music business because his dad hook Simon up with someone. He’s not judge material. In almost every talent show I’ve watched where was Simon in there’s always one person that disagrees with him about a contestant . And they prove him wrong later on. Then Simon looks like a dam fool. I can’t stand him he’s so irrelevant to the music industry! Simon Cowell is a joke.
Brittney is looking at everyone like “he’s my friend, we sang together, I don’t want to tell him he’s bad and turn him down” The look in her eyes is sorrowful
The first guy is suffering from depression.. Britney was harsh, she could’ve gotten up and at least hug him and tell him everything’s going to be okay regardless..
After watching her on the X factor....I just don’t....like her. She seems heartless and she talks like she’s above people. Just look at her facial expressions.
Don was also pressured/bullied by Hollywood Access to admit he was gay and they completely set him up and upset the hell out of him. He ended up in a very dangerous place but I believe he is ok now. It was a very hard and emotional day for him but the crew of the show made it so hard for Don and he struggled.
Yeah I think there's a lot going on with the first guy too. To have been 10 years since he last saw Brittney n get that upset. wow She has also been through a lot in her life. I felt bad for her too. I do think she is a good person but she's had a lot of people steer her in the wrong directions
Honestly, the moment Cheryl said that she's in no position to comment and review the singing of Nick, I felt like this is how talent shows should work and show some integrity. Well done, Cheryl!
The situation is just so sad. I would have terrible survivors guilt if I was Brittany but I guess that’s just the way life is. Some make it and the rest don’t.
Because she was put on the spot in a way if she said “no” she was a bad guy. Judges shouldn’t know the contestants because of pressure to say yes because they know them. It put her in a very awkward situation.
Emily the loli Nightray I feel it was considerate of Simon. I see a lot of ppl bashing Britney but she has no obligation to make him feel better and seemed uncomfortable.
He’s got some decent musicality, but his voice was not great. I try imagining these voices on a track- it’s easier to hear when someone’s not cut out for it. Singing might not make for a prolific future, but I dont think he should give up music. Musicality and creativity can take you a long way
The first guy wasn't even bad. He was just so sad, and upset his voice failed him. His voice wasn't made for that particular voice. Also he didn't hurt Brittany she hurt him.
He actually acted in an inappropriate way... the sow did him a favor by editing it and having him look like the nice guy. In case you want to see it, there is an uncut version here on UA-cam.
The first guy definitely had a good voice but I dont think halo really was a good song for him to sing cuz he kind of had like a raspy voice. But this is just my opinion and I dont mean to hate on anyone♥️
I think he just had too much riding on this, too much emotion invested, and it constricted his voice so much he was straining the whole time, and then he tried to make up for it with runs and an affected tone....poor guy, I hope he's ok
Britney should have gone after him (Don Philip). I hope they had a private conversation afterwards. Imagine starting out with Britney, you both had big dreams, she makes it and you didn't.
tunde818 no way! It’s not Britney’s responsibility to manage someone’s feelings who she hasn’t talked to in ten years!! She has her own issues to deal with!
Nicole Ayla Ashby-King not an Aries, just a girl who has gone though a lot of stress and abuse to do other people’s emotional work for them and I know how pointless and horrible it all ended up being. I want everyone to protect their own energy
I can’t stand the audience. The guy was so broken and was sad and crying and when he gets four no’s the audience cheers. Like cmon have some sympathy you foul beasts.
I wonder how he is doing these days? It so fricking hard to make it in the entertainment field. I hope he has found his happy place, happy life. Everyone deserves that. We don’t have to be a star to be happy.
She can’t lie to him, I think it worse, look at her face after the audition I bet she was thinking of him all night... the guy seems depressed I wish he can get help .
Which is why Im thinking he was quite "obsessed" with her. I feel like she even knew he was straining his voice to sound closer to her style, which made her extremely uncomfortable because that's when she realized what was going on and it was more about her than anything. Even when he's talking, sounds like his voice is shot from singing way too many Brittney Spears' songs.
I don't think she wants it to defend him she just wanted to find a way to tell him no in the nicest way possible. He clearly didn't have a good singing voice and there's no way that she would on national TV say that he did.
"I saw her face and I feel like I've hurt her." This is the line that makes me legitimately cry.
Yes and the thing is our society always try to find who was wrong, was it don or brittney, but neither of them did anything wrong! :(
I know I felt heartbroken for him :(
Shinn kun, I Almost Cried Too
Thing that upset him was not the fact that he didnt win, but that
He isn’t even sad that Britney said no,he is just sad he “hurt” britney
Don broke my heart when he said "I feel like I've hurt her" and just cradled up in the corner.
He cares so much about her.
He seems a bit stalkerish
Yes but also he’s been in the self victimization role for so long that it comes across in all he does and that’s sad. He has a beautiful spirit but so much healing happen so that he can be all he truly is. He is worthy
He's a snowflake
Seems like he cares a little too much as if he’s obsessed with her 😂
Plead Ster no he doesnt ?
The saddest part is that the first guy didnt have anyone there with him, he was all alone.. I felt bad for the poor guy, I nearly cried.

check the uncut version
ua-cam.com/video/QROI5WnGXFo/v-deo.html
He kinda sang like Britney in a male voice, I liked his performance
he was tweaking. it wouldn't have been good to have an addict in the competition, as much as i feel sorry for him
The first guy just couldn't sing coz of the depression he had. He literally had a breakdown before and after his performance. He needed time to recover.
Don don't worry theirs always another chance,you've made me cry,I hoped they would have agreed with the second song you had. Take heart my brother.
Tbh I didn’t think his voice was that bad
@@tylerverner3066 it wasn't terrible but it also wasn't pleasing, I think it might have been that he had a breakdown, his voice sounds like its one that can sing but he just didn't have the composure to sing at that moment
He had like 15+ years
Tyler Verner his voice was bad, he was straining his throat and using his throat voice too much. Instead he should have used his chest and diaphragm
Imagine one of the most famous record executives of all time hears your audition and tells you, "It's never going to work out, give up on your dreams." I can't even imagine the heartbreak. I respect Simon for his brutal honesty, it really seemed like he wasn't being mean but was legitimately trying to save the guy from any further disappointment. But still, that's just so tough to hear. I hope that guy is doing well.
Tbh Simon said it with class and not in any disrespectful way.
I don’t think that’s helpful for people to give up their dreams.
Adjust it and tune into practicality, yes.
But not give up on the things that drive you.
@@blueskies773 agreed
The first guys voice wasn’t bad he could maybe get some people to help him with his vocals but tbh he wasn’t too bad
I feel like a big part of how he sounded was bc he was crying too, they shouldve given him a sec
eat a rock yup I def agree
The first guy clearly hasn't given up his crack habit.
@@shanerichardson4361 true, the unedited version clearly showed that. even the judges think so
david sun ikr, it was actually kinda good!
She could have at least given him a hug and encouraging words
@ He isn't a Psycho he just needs to forget her
Just Eileen nope
Okay maybe not a hug but some encouraging words would have been enough
@ No she doesn't, she's a good person that cares for others. She's actually very sensitive, she may seem cold but that doesn't mean she's always cold. She's literally a LEGEND in the Music Industry along with others, she's been singing for a really long time she knows how to spot talent. She also knows what talent is because she has it herself, she doesn't care about herself she cares for others around her and she cares for her loved ones.
@ Hmm... Let's see that guy was singing a song about candy girls, and he was basically singing to every girl in the whole audience which is creepy. And he had a horrible voice, when I heard his voice I felt like my ears were going to bleed. So I don't blame Britney for making faces at his singing, and once he was done singing he's the one who insulted Demi and he's the who was being rude to Demi first so Britney had every right to insult him back. And yes Demi does use autotune but when she sings live it's real and it's her real voice. Same with Britney, Britney may use autotune but when she sings LIVE it's her real voice. Your acting like the only people that use autotune in the Music Industry are Demi and Britney let me tell you something sweetie everyone EVERYONE uses autotune in the Music Industry. The only people that don't use autotune that much in the Music Industry are the people that have been around for a really long time. And by the way, that guy that your talking about in your comment the audition person, once Britney said something to him he insulted L.A. and then walked off the stage. So not only did he insult Demi he insulted L.A. as well. And not only did he insult one judge he insulted two judges as well. So Britney had every right to insult him back, that guy was delusional.
The first guy made me tear "I've feel like I hurt her"

@@Yung_Sauce_God but she could've at least given him a hug.
I really couldn’t agree more my heart sank when I seen his face drop 😓
I think in a way she was pressured and Simon might of done that..
The worst part was when he said backstage “I didn’t meant to hurt Britney” like he wasn’t hurt that he couldn’t make it to the show,he was hurt cause he felt like it was all his fault

I’m so glad Don never gave up and is still putting out great music!!! He was having horrible anxiety issues. They never showed ALL of what went on. He was clearly triggered by something. Ummm withdrawals and anxiety are not the same thing. Please don’t NARCAN someone having a panic attack. 😳😬🤣 He’s a wonderful person and I hope he succeeds in his dreams.
I hope too brother
💜
i hope he can see britney again one day in a happier setting… all of that broke my heart
The first guy was more worried about Britney than himself. Wow. That’s some mf love right there
Or a Crazy Obsession lol
Or a depressed man trying to find meaning
No it ain’t.
She should have hired to her production team, he clearly has an ear for it all (since he had performed with her before) and had nothing but her best interests in mind, that on top of 6 years of production experience? I would hire him
Weird guy have watched too much sad Japanese or Korean dramas lol it's just a failed relationship he needs to man up and move on.
The first one breaks my heart-- he wasn't even mad at being rejected
Same. It’s a good lesson that you shouldn’t invest all your energy towards a person. They most likely will disappoint you sadly... I hope he’s okay, that really got to him.
Damara Alley well he wasn't mad but he was really hurt
Jesus you people are so dramatic the guy can’t sing he’s been trying to sing fir 20 years and go nowhere it is what it is.
I know....
I want to hug the first guy he seems depressed. I was expecting that Britney would hug him but no. :(
shud she please everyone like that? no need..
Risik Gempur I get that she can't give & give & give endlessly to every self-described überfan, but I think that this guy was *definitely* in need of support & comfort in this moment. I'm always anti-misleading-encouragement, but a few kind words from B. would have meant a great deal to him, esp. to his self-esteem.
It's scary for celebrities because you never know how they can react it can go positively or celebrities can end up getting hurt sooo yeah
nena CasBas Yup, it's a Catch-22. Be kind to a fan & you could end up w/a stalker, or worse. And maybe you tick off other, unstable fans rabidly jealous of the attention paid to someone other than them.
He was kinda creepy. It was to much from him. Like a psycho fan kinda
When the first guy said “I am so sorry Britney” and “I never meant to hurt her” it literally broke my heart 💔💔💔 I hope he is doing alright 🥺
Yo did anyone check on him
What did he do
so pathetic srsly
@@anonymous-cx7ng Well, apparently Brittany and the first guy known each other for years. They sung together and the first guy has been depressed since he hadn't seen her for 10 years.
When Brittany said "no" The first guy broke down crying saying he's sorry for Brittany. I think that he misses her and wants to be with her (not romantically) I think he developed stress, nervousness and depression from coming out (as being gay) and the death of his lover so that's why he's acting like that. Hope he is okay..
When the first guy started singing, Britney almost looked embarrassed to be associated with him. Poor guy they didn’t have to be so cold to him
Macie Nicholas no she felt uncomfortable and sad, did you see her face when she gave him a no? she felt disappointed to give him a no knowing he looked up to her it wasn’t easy for her either
Oromi Ashite she should have said yes because we all knew the others would say no...
@@PhantomPanda939 yeah thats my thought on everyone lol
@@PhantomPanda939 No, because it would give him false hope, and that's a horrible thing to do.
@@get_lost6227 giving false hope is not horrible. It'll teach them to become better, hope means that there's a chance and not that their voice is absolutely beautiful.
The first guy's voice was affected by his emotions. He does have a singing voice... but when you're emotional like that, you lose control of your nerves, your control and most likely, you get congested from the tear production.
He was probably high as well... you should watch the uncutted version
I agree, I doubt they go around giving contestants ginger tea ☕️, works like a treat.
Being choked up definitely DOES effect the quality, the tone and the sound of a voice. Everything swells up and you end up incredibly pitchy, yet this guy wasn't actually effected too much.... more so lack of control over it, lack of talent~sorry to say. He seemed a sweet guy who's heart was more set on Brittany than singing... he just wanted to be in her orbit.
Its true

If you have Britney’s first album, her duet with Don Phillips is one of my favourite songs there! He’s been though a lot probably, but he had a really good voice! He was probably extremely nervous at that time
i feel like he couldve sang better if he wasnt so sad at that moment
Of course man, when you are emotional and after crying, there is a "cry voice" that is still there. You just can't speak normally. If you get what I'm trying to say....
I felt the biggest issue with his performance was his speach impediment he has was still detectable when he sang
He was high, you can tell in the full version of his audition
Truth spoken by Solider 76
Jack Morrison true :(
The first guy made me sad.
You can tell Britney felt awful.
However, you can tell Don has been through a lot of personal issues.
Hope he finds peace. 💜😔
I think he really got his peace and more i think he has a song on spotify and has a really great singing voice
I was so sad, my heart hurt after that
Eraun Haughton it was all fake,he was a good actor tried to get a record deal by all those alligators tears 🤔🤔🤨🤨🤪🤪🤪
Ryan Khan Not true. I saw his Instagram. He seems like he’s showing happy face but inside he’s hurt and it looks like the music industry was part of his hurt. But he’s been singing at weddings for friends. He ain’t acting. He’s going through stuff. Let alone a psychologist check him and you’ll know I am right.
@@JoyLangston whats wrong with him, he looks so broken?!
This guy needs a real girlfriend, not a fantasy one, he needs to be loved for himself. He's good looking, sweet, emotional and deserves only the best.

Almost all guys who "deserve the best" dont get the best or even the mediocre because they simply "wait" for something that isnt gonna come to them.. same with the women who "deserve the best"... they all seem to not care for themselves enough to give themselves the best
@@pullup4310 that is so true
That first man was not okay. I felt so bad for him. He was worried about hurting Britney, but honestly she just looked so sad to be hurting his feelings having to say no. I really hope that man found support in his life. He seems like such a sweetheart, and I don't think he was done with his struggles with worthiness.
Don melted my entire heart. Everyone’s saying Britt didn’t give him a hug, but I don’t think ppl understand... she was hurt too... it’s clear... it was probably completely awkward for her. She was very uncomfortable in that clip.
Yeah plus Simon was the only one to comfort her asking if she was ok because he could clearly see how hurt Brittany had become especially after seeing how much it affected her all that time and so much hurt
I’m still worried that Britney killed a mans dream but there’s a rumor she made it up to him
His voice is done
if someone can not face the truth, then they won't grow up. I feel so bad for Britney, it's not easy to say no in that situation and she was kind enough to "find him a reason before she said no". Man, I hope he listens to the song "Stronger", and be strong.
She was in a difficult place in judging someone she used to know.
the way they interrupted him when he wanted to sing the second song..he looked so done.ive never seen someone so visually broken.

@@elmalloc what
Yeah why didnt she...
She couldnt do that because since the guy is fustrated , britney might be attacked cuz the guy might be thinking well. Britneys safety is important
Theres actually a post about the first guy and how he was forced to tell the people backstage before the show that he was gay, which he kept a secret, and they began spreading the rumor, so it made him nervous that they might reveal the secret when he was on stage, so he began crying because he both hadn't seen britney and was nervous about the secret. His crying didn't let him sing right, and when he was voted out, people began talking about his secret. His mom stopped talking to him, and he began getting thoughts on suicide, although,luckily, he didnt. But the least Brittney could've done was hug him and comfort him.

The first guy chose the wrong song for his voice type I think.
Sidra Swann DEFINITELY. he had some good spots in there but other times. it just hurt. he needs more practice and a song better suited for his voice. song choice is so key when going on these shows. you need something that fits you and shows off your skills well. for me, i know one of my best songs is If I Die Young by the Band Perry. Id be an IDIOT to pick..say...a lot of other songs honestly. i have a weird voice that seriously, only works with certain songs. and it takes time to figure them out. again. especially for me because im such a person to attempt to sing like the original artist which is damaging when learning to sing because you set back what you’re good at and focus on stuff you arent.
IKR lol
I agree..
You know when you cry your voice gets unclear and I think that's what happened to him... I feel bad..
he chose the right song its just that he was emotional and he could not sing properly
I love Simon's honesty! Doesn't crush dreams. It crushes delusions.
no not always.. you cant know if someone will find a way to improve their voice.. Do you or Simon know every way in the world to improve voice? No.
Simon has some nerve to say that Nikk needs to something with his life where he’s not going to get rejected. Nikk can sing. Simon is a not a record producer whatsoever. Before One Direction came out I can’t name one artist that he signed that people still listen to. Simon doesn’t even have a dam High School Diploma. Do you know many record executive had to get educated and go to school to know what achieve later on. The only reason why Simon is relevant to the music business because his dad hook Simon up with someone. He’s not judge material. In almost every talent show I’ve watched where was Simon in there’s always one person that disagrees with him about a contestant . And they prove him wrong later on. Then Simon looks like a dam fool. I can’t stand him he’s so irrelevant to the music industry! Simon Cowell is a joke.
They should’ve let Don sing another song because he picked just the wrong song with his voice
I honestly thought the same thing. I thought his voice was good, off just the wrong song choice, probably even the wrong genre for him.
That's exactly what I said
•ᴄɪɴɴᴀᴍɪʟᴋ• I agree
And seriously Demi isn't meant to be on that table
Same, I felt really bad for him
Brittney is looking at everyone like “he’s my friend, we sang together, I don’t want to tell him he’s bad and turn him down”
The look in her eyes is sorrowful
I agree.
She also looks very uncomfortable that he's singing that song to her. It can't have been an easy thing for either of them.
Finally, some understanding. It's a difficult situation to deal with and she basically just got through it
IKR everyone is hating on her. I am not a fan myself but she had to judge him. In a way it helps them improve
The first guy is suffering from depression.. Britney was harsh, she could’ve gotten up and at least hug him and tell him everything’s going to be okay regardless..

Omg I was thinking the same thing, they should have let him have a redo!!!
He sounded average tbh
He sounded like he smoked a couple packs a day ngl
They would have never let him through with the lisp/raspy voice thing it was unbearable
He’s got some decent musicality, but his voice was not great. I try imagining these voices on a track- it’s easier to hear when someone’s not cut out for it. Singing might not make for a prolific future, but I dont think he should give up music. Musicality and creativity can take you a long way
The first guy wasn't even bad. He was just so sad, and upset his voice failed him. His voice wasn't made for that particular voice. Also he didn't hurt Brittany she hurt him.

Yeah, he should perform rock or punk song, I agree
I think he just had too much riding on this, too much emotion invested, and it constricted his voice so much he was straining the whole time, and then he tried to make up for it with runs and an affected tone....poor guy, I hope he's ok
He was singing like britney like sounding like a baby

The guy was so broken and was sad and crying and when he gets four no’s the audience cheers. Like cmon have some sympathy you foul beasts.
Not Sylence ikr,, I feel so bad for him
I've got a feeling like they pump in fake cheers during performances. Similar thing done to most TV nowadays.
RGS Sylence watch Tara symonds’ video it shows the way they often edit the audience reaction but idk in this instance
The Sasquatch yeah they do
They cheer him off because they have sympathy and feel bad, they think he did a good job.
am I the only one who thinks he sings exactly the same as Britney but like on a male version?
@ss ax why so rude
@ss ax that was so mean
@@sparkle_dream do you remember what they said? It's been deleted
@@siana4185 im sorry i have a lot stuff in my mind these days i cant even remeber what i ate yesterday xd
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING!!!
The first guy is seriously depressed. He needs professional help.
I wonder how he is doing these days? It so fricking hard to make it in the entertainment field. I hope he has found his happy place, happy life. Everyone deserves that. We don’t have to be a star to be happy.
his voice sounded so shattered i cant help but cry :(
He's doing much better now!
@@elisabetht.967 , that’s great
lesson 1 never get hooked on a women
You can really see the kindness in Britney’s eyes when she looks at Don Phillips
I know Britney is mentally ill, but she hurt that guy so bad... it’s depressing. Literally cried my eyes out. He’s so clearly in love with her
FroggyRibbitz Same it was so just cold hearted of her
@@teamist_8895 it really wasn't, she had to decide on his voice, not how much they like eachother
IKR
I heard that he's actually gay.
She can’t lie to him, I think it worse, look at her face after the audition I bet she was thinking of him all night... the guy seems depressed I wish he can get help .
Don sounded just like Britney, idk how they didn't hear the connection.
Which is why Im thinking he was quite "obsessed" with her. I feel like she even knew he was straining his voice to sound closer to her style, which made her extremely uncomfortable because that's when she realized what was going on and it was more about her than anything. Even when he's talking, sounds like his voice is shot from singing way too many Brittney Spears' songs.
@@gummibear696 yeah, you could tell he looked up to her much
Yeah they both suck
@@emmajane96 Britney's real voice is actually good. Wish they didn't make her sing all weird and nasally on purpose
@@gummibear696 I never saw it this way. You're right. That's so sad and scary.
Don Phillips' voice was beautiful. He was just too hurt to perform like he needed & wanted to. I hope he's well...
Now here are the huge balls of Mr Simon Cowell, on such an emotional teased atmosphere he still just says the truth. (1st guy)
Yep. I certainly couldn't say what Simon says
I feel like britney wanted to defend him and stand up for him but she didn't because of what simon said
Omg I thought it was a pun but it’s not screeeeee what is wrong with me LMAO
women dont like beta males
I think it's more bc she agreed with what Simon said.
I don't think she wants it to defend him she just wanted to find a way to tell him no in the nicest way possible. He clearly didn't have a good singing voice and there's no way that she would on national TV say that he did.
Yes, me too
