Can you believe it’s been 15 years since OG vocal talent show The X Factor first appeared on our screens? Us neither!
Over the years us fans have witnessed the birth of some of the world’s most well-loved stars including Leona Lewis, One Direction and Little Mix; but some of the show’s most memorable competitors seem to have disappeared from the limelight since then…
On that note, join us as we see what Rhydian and the rest of the X Factor‘s most iconic contestants look like now!
10. Janet Devlin – THEN
Janet Devlin auditioned for the show in 2011 with a cover of Elton John’s ”Your Song,” and boy was it magical…
The then-16-year-old made it all the way to the live quarter-finals before she was sadly weeded out of the competition, but her unique voice is something none of us have ever been able to forget.
Thankfully, coming fifth-place hasn’t stopped the songstress from chasing after her dream career and these days she shares her talents through Instagram and Youtube where she has an impressive 480k subscribers!
Now that she’s 24, Janet has flown the nest and no longer lives with her family in Gortin, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland and instead resides in England’s bustling capital! Not too bad, huh?
