Live from Hollywood, it's "The X Factor."
Tonight, the finalists sing live for your votes for the very first time.
Please welcome the judges.
L.A. Reid, Demi Lovato, Simon Cowell, and Britney Spears.
Now, please welcome your hosts, Mario Lopez and Khloe Kardashian Odom.
Welcome to "The X Factor."
Let's go!
Good evening.
I'm Mario Lopez.
And I'm Khloe Kardashian Odom.
So after months of judges'
decisions, tonight the power passes to you at home.
That's right.
For the very first time, the acts will be singing for your votes.
Who stays in the competition and who goes home is now up to you, America.
Yes, and that means there's a whole new level of
pressure for the acts tonight.
Now, before we even start, we have some very
important news that's going to affect the entire show tonight.
So, judges, please tell us what exactly is going on.
Well, um, you know, we...
We... may I have a second.
They're apparently very excited.
We watched the show back.
The final 12 we're very happy with.
But we believe we made a mistake with one act.
Wow.
We think one act deserves to be in the final.
Okay.
And between us we've asked this particular act to
return and join the finalists.
Wow!
Well, we had 12 acts.
And now, apparently, we have 13.
So please welcome the 13th finalist.
It's diamond white!
Okay.
So, diamond, you're back in the competition.
Now you are in the top 13.
How do you feel?
I feel awesome, and I'm ready to get performing.
Do you feel good about Britney bringing you back?
Okay.
We'll see you perform later in the show today.
Thank you so much, diamond.
So excited diamond's back.
Now, thank you, sweetie.
Go ahead and get ready.
So now there are 13 acts coming up.
And remember, you at home will now decide who goes through to the next round.
All the numbers you need to vote will be coming up on your
screen, so get ready.
Now, the theme for this week is songs from the movies.
All the songs being performed tonight are from some of the
greatest movies ever made.
Yes.
And first to perform for your votes is one of the teens.
Their mentor is Britney Spears.
Who's performing tonight first?
Excuse me?
Who is going to perform first tonight from your end?
Arin ray.
Last week I was in Britney's last two.
I thought for sure I was going home when they called diamond's name.
I put my heart on that stage.
I felt so much I never felt before in my life.
I feel arin is very talented.
Getting kicked off is the worst feeling ever.
Back at home in Cincinnati, I go to school.
I'll have, like, basketball practice.
I don't really do too much because my neighborhood, it's
not like the safest place to be.
Two streets over from me, somebody gets shot, like, often.
If I won this $5 million, my family's life would change as well, you know.
I'm not going to be in the bottom two.
This week is going to be the biggest performance of my life.

Arin ray!
Arin, first of all, what happened to you from last year to this year?
Because you're a different person than you were the first time I met you.
Thank you so much.
My concern for you has always been you finding material
that you can really have your own vocal identity, and you know what?
I think you just found it, my friend.
Yeah.
Thank you so much.
Great job.
I am a little speechless.
No.
Not another crush.
I just want you to know that you really took the advice
we took you last week.
I thought this week you were definitely more smooth, as I like to say.
I don't know.
You were definitely more smooth.
And you look like a star up there.
So... thank you so much.
Arin, you know, the reason why we have mentors on
this show is they're supposed to work with you to turn you into
the kind of artist you should be outside of this competition.
And I have to say, Britney, you've done a really, really
good job with this guy.
Thank you so much.
She's amazing.
There's a big difference from last week to this week.
I think you got your confidence back.
The fact that you won that sing-off against diamond.
And you're turning into a little pop star.
I'm really impressed.
Thank you so much.
I am just so proud of you.
You owned it.
You rocked it.
And you're definitely a true star.
You're amazing.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
You could definitely be my American boy.
How do you feel that you opened the show and now America gets to
vote for you, the fans?
It's definitely amazing to open the show like this in front of these people.
This is why I'm here, for you guys, so I love it.
If you want to keep arin in, you have to vote and
the lines will open at the end of the show.
After the break, a single mom from Phoenix, Arizona, gets her shot at
winning your votes.
It's Paige Thomas.
Welcome back to "The X Factor."
Once again we partnered with verizon to revolutionize voting
and get you closer to the show.
While we're live on the air with the all-new xtra factor app and
it has all kinds of cool functions.
When opens up at the end of the show, you can use verizon touch
voting on your android verizon vote by touching the artist's
picture like that and, bam, your vote's in.
The xtra factor app also puts you behind the scenes of the
show, and with verizon live view, you have exclusive access
live to all cameras backstage, in the studio, while the show's going on.
You can check out the contestants while they're getting ready to go on the
stage.
You can see the dancers rehearsing in front of the two-way mirror.
You can see the stage itself.
And you can choose what angles you want to see it from.
Pick your favorites and earn redeemable points as they advance.
Back to you.
Thank you, Mario.
That was a mouthful.
Simon, how fantastic is this app?
You know what?
I've used this app.
Without being biased, it's probably the best app in the world.
You can use the app to vote for your favorites tonight.
If you're a verizon subscriber, you can also vote via text.
All the songs this week are from famous movies.
Up next is one of the young adults.
Their mentor is a crime-fighting, sexy superhero, miss Demi Lovato.
Please introduce your act.
My next act is someone who is so beautiful and so
talented, I'm so proud of her, please welcome Paige Thomas.
The second act I'm going to put through is going to be Paige Thomas.
My daughter was here for my last performance.
It was so amazing.
Hi, baby.
It meant the world to have her there with me.
She got to watch me and be proud of her mother.
Did mama make it through?
I had my daughter when I was 18, my freshman year in college.
But I wouldn't change it for the world.
I can't put into words.
I want to make my daughter proud.
I can't go home and tell my daughter I didn't win this competition.
The stakes are high.
I'm a mother who was told you can't do anything at all.
You are so unbelievably strong.
Keep in mind, this is America voting.
I want you to kill it.

Hello.
So, I'm not sure.
I think the production was amazing.
You know, you seemed angelic coming from that ceiling.
I'm a little bit jealous of that.
That was pretty well done.
And the song was good.
But I want to tell you that I'm not completely blown away.
I just... I think it was good.
Fair enough.
But I really want great from you.
I really want great, because I think you're capable of great.
Thank you.
But it was good.
Thank you.
I felt like the beginning was the best part.
Like it was shocking, it was so good.
It was so theatrical, and you had so much passion and the
costumes and everything.
I thought it was a wonderful performance.
Thank you, Britney.
Thank you very much.
Demi, I don't think you could have put any more on that stage.
Flying spaceships, wings.
What I would have done with the track, I think the beginning, as
Britney said, was great.
I think you needed to go somewhere.
I think if you'd used your imagination and changed it into
a dance track at the end, I think it would have been incredible.
Having someone lowered from the ceiling is using my imagination.
There you've got to be very careful, the two of you.
You don't want to turn this into a karaoke competition.
You've got to make records.
And you are a fantastic performer.
Thank you.
I just think madam could have used a little bit
more imagination in terms of the production of the song.
You're right.
There was not enough on stage.
I should have flown back upstage.
I don't know.
There should have been flames.
I'm so sorry I let you down.
I'm talking about the production of the song.
I think you did so amazing.
It was so beautiful.
I was talking about production of the song.
It was so great.
Obviously, everybody in the audience disagrees with you.
What did you think about that performance?
You looked really cozy with that guy, I've got to say.
I loved everything about it.
I wanted to kind of show off the other side of me, you know, vocally.
I think that's exactly what we did with this song.
And I absolutely loved it.
Well, I think you did an amazing job.
After the break, a guy who usually sings for America's
troops, tonight he's singing for America's votes.
It's vino Alan.
Welcome back to "The X Factor."
I am backstage, and I feel nerves everywhere!
Mr. Tate Stevens, how are you tonight?
You're blotting oil off your face.
Why are you sweating so much?
It's pretty nerve-racking.
Tonight is America's votes.
I don't know anyone that's not nervous.
Do you feel like America's in control or you can
win them over with your Southern charm?
I'm nervous.
I can't help it.
Hopefully, I can do something they love.
I think America loves you.
Now we're going over to your mentor, Mr. L.A. Reid.
Yes.
Performing a song from the movie, "when a man loves a"
"woman," this is vino Alan.
My hometown is waynesville, Missouri.
Right outside a military base.
I was going to join and they wouldn't take me because of my tattoos.
I've been blessed to get contracts from the military to
tour and perform for the troupes.
What is it like at home?
I have no home to go home to.
I've been doing for the troops.
I heard you sang for the troops.
It gave me chills whenever I saw them.
I've been told by many troops it helps them do what we do.
I'll always give back to the troops.
I just want to do it on a higher level now.
If vino gets sent home from this competition, he goes
home from nothing, not even home.
But he's a real contender, and vino will do a great job.

East coast, I'm with you.
I feel like your performance was really stripped
and it really showed your vocal performance and how unique and
special your voice is.
And it was really, really good.
I loved it.
Thank you, Britney.
That was a phenomenal performance.
Thanks, Demi.
I'm so impressed with how you just poured your heart
and soul onto that stage, and it left me speechless even though
I'm talking right now.
My only concern with you, vino, is that I have a hard time
seeing you as a number one artist.
And I... I think you're an incredible vocalist, but I'm not
sure if I see you as a pop star.
I appreciate you.
You know what, vino, you went from zero to hero in one week.
Thanks, Simon.
I mean, an awful song last week.
It's what've always believed, you are a soul singer.
You did put your heart and soul into that performance.
And actually, Demi, that's kind of a stupid thing you just said.
Because...
Vino, come back.
Sorry, Simon.
If you've got talent, you've got talent.
And you have got an incredible voice and I'm glad your story
came back about what you do for the troops because you've kept
that... you know, you're a good man.
Thank you, Simon.
That means the world.
Thank you so much.
Vino, vino, I'm really proud of you.
I'm really, really proud.
You've always had a strong identity.
You know, we listened.
We actually did take notes from Simon last week.
And guess what?
He was right.
We nailed it.
You nailed it.
And I couldn't be happier.
Thank you.
Don't forget, you have to vote tonight people.
It's the first time.
Everyone here is trying to win your votes.
Vino included.
Your votes make it through to next week.
It's the first of the groups coming up next, and their mentor
is Mr. Simon Cowell.
Simon?
Next up, at the movies, my girl and Katy Perry,
the act, no gimmick, is emblem3.
We are brothers.
He's like an honorary brother.
We've been jamming and making music together for years.
We're from huntington beach, a small little surf town down South from L.A.
We became a group back in middle school.
We've broken up and got back together many different times.
Right before we left, we got an eviction notice.
Yes.
My mom lost her job and couldn't afford to pay the house.
When people ask what my address is, I tell them here z.
We need this because we don't have anywhere else to go if we did leave.
We have a lot to live up to now.
We have to actually work harder than we did last week.
No one's totally safe.
We just have to do your best.
Bring your a-game every time.
If we don't have this, we don't have any money.
We don't have any place else to stay.
Right now this competition is our survival.

Emblem3, you know what?
I'm trying to find... I really want to be critical, because if
I'm not critical, I don't know if anyone else will be, because
you guys were actually perfect, and I don't like that.
Thank you.
That felt so good.
Oh, my God.
I don't know what to say.
I want to say something, but I just can't think of it.
You know what it is?
I hate perfection.
There you go.
You know, I was really blown away at the way you guys
were able to make the song yours and make it... you owned it.
It was really, really good.
You had a lot of confidence.
Which song?
They did about eight.
I thought it was great.
Thank you, Britney.
I thought you guys were really great.
If I had been your mentor, I would have made sure that I
wouldn't have plugged one of my other artists that you could
easily be compared to.
What?
I feel like you plugged another artist, another group,
that they could be easily compared to.
What?
I think it was a bad move.
They deserve better than that.
That's called being clever.
Guys, do you know what?
What I love about you, every single time you come out, it's energy.
It's fun.
It's everything a band like you should be.
And what you didn't know was that we changed this song.
They've only had one day to rehearse it.
One day.
No moaning.
They just got on with it.
And I think just like last week, I think you did an outstanding job.
Congratulations.
I think America loves you guys.
The ladies love you.
That's for sure.
Next up, it's one of the teens.
So let's go back to Britney Spears.
Britney?
Up next is Beatrice Miller singing "iris" by the goo goo dolls.
I'm Beatrice Miller.
I'm 13 years old.
I'm from Maplewood, New Jersey.
I don't have, I guess, the normal life of a 13-year-old girl.
I live with my two moms and my two little sisters who are
twins, Georgia and Esther.
My birth mom, Kim's, been out of work.
And my mom, Hillary, doesn't have work either.
When I'm here, and I win, there's a career for me, I'll help them out.
If I don't, I'll go home, it will be even worse than now.
Of course you have it.
When my voice is dry on stage, I can barely sing.
Her vocal cords are messed up.
Are you going to sing?
I'd rather not do it today.
She's a little scratchy today, but I really believe she can do it.

Beatrice, you know what?
The tone of your voice sounds like a hit record.
It really does.
Thank you.
I love your tone, right?
It was a very good song choice.
I can't tell you I got chill bumps again, but I think your
voice is just sensational.
Thank you.
The way that you pour your soul into your songs at
such a young age is just. It blows my mind.
Thank you.
I... I know one thing when I watch you.
No matter what song you're going to sing, I know that I can
connect to you through the song.
Thank you.
Beatrice, how old are you?
13.
That's unbelievable.
I mean, seriously unbelievable.
Because you're not like someone at 13.
I mean, you are like... you're like a great performer, very,
very difficult song to sing.
There were a few vocal issues in the middle.
But I can see you working.
I really can.
And I think that was a better performance this week than last week.
Thank you.
Yeah, you've got more confidence this week.
I had fun!
Good for you.
There you go.
I feel like you have the best personality out of
anybody in this whole competition.
Thank you.
I'm so proud of you.
Thank you so much.
Nice comments.
Good job, Beatrice.
If you want Beatrice to make it through to next week, you need to vote.
All the voting lines will be open at the end of the show.
Yes.
After the break, a 17-year-old student from Massachusetts.
It's jennel Garcia.
Yeah.
Old school "grease" for you right there.
Welcome back to "The X Factor"
everyone.
Here is Demi Lovato to introduce the next singer from the young adults.
Demi?
I'm so proud of this next artist.
She's a true rock star.
Give it up for jennel Garcia.
I'm from Massachusetts, a small town with cornfields and cows and tractors.
My dad works on cars and my mom's a home health aide.
I've always lived in a small town working in the garage, going to school.
That's all I did.
What are you going back to if this doesn't work out?
Is there a plan b?
If I didn't audition for "the x factor," I actually have no
idea where I'd be.
I was thinking of bartending school.
If I did that, I'd probably be completely miserable.
That's something that really scares me.
I wanted to do this my whole life.
If I don't go out there and give it my all, that could mean I'm
possibly going home and that cannot happen.
I want to make my town very proud.

Hello, jennel.
Hi.
Okay, so, yes, it was good, but I have a real problem
with that performance.
My problem is that it was a Joan jett parody and I just didn't
see the originality or the inventiveness.
Okay.
Yeah.
I just didn't quite get that.
I have one word for your performance.
Hot, hot, hot.
That's three words.
Three words.
Jennel, you know, I really, really like you.
But you've got to... you've got to listen to me here, because
this is important.
I don't like what Demi has done to the way you look.
You are... I mean, I really mean that.
You are unrecognizable.
Well, obviously... ...From the person we first saw.
You were fun and charming.
And this is just... I agree.
This is a bit of a parody.
- Obviously... - I haven't finished.
I haven't finished.
Just accept that she was great.
Demi, Demi... I really, really like you, but I
think you have to challenge yourself on these songs.
L.A.'s absolutely right.
It was pretty much a straight cover, and you are better than this.
You really, really are.
That's why I'm her mentor and you're not.
Because look around in this audience.
All of the girls are going crazy.
And I guarantee you they would buy it.
I think you look beautiful and I think you look amazing.
Just a quick heads-up at home.
I want you to know you can download all of tonight's performances, okay?
All you have to do is go to thexfactorusa.Com.
Yes.
Coming up, a construction worker from belton, Missouri, singing
from your votes.
It's Tate Stevens right after the break.
Welcome back to "The X Factor."
Tonight for the very first time, you guys at home will decide
which acts stay in the competition and who's going home.
And, on tomorrow night's show, we'll get the results, which
should be pretty intense.
Yes, it certainly should be.
On top of the results, we'll have two performances.
I'm so excited about this one.
It's one direction.
Everybody here is very excited about that, too.
It's going to be really cool.
Again, that is tomorrow night at 8:00, 7:00 central.
Right now let's go to Mr. L.A.
Reid.
Yes, representing the working class, please welcome to
the stage, America, this is Tate Stevens.
Home is my wife and two kids.
Breakfast is done.
I graduated high school in 1994.
Should have went to college, but wanted to be a superstar, and my
wife, she was basically a single mom while I was out chasing my dreams.
Got a game tonight.
I remember when my son, it was time for him to go to bed.
He said, no, you'll leave.
That hit home.
It hurt.
So I got a real job.
It was what I had to do to take care of my family.
Not that I don't love this job, but it's definitely not what I'm
supposed to do.
When "x factor" came to Kansas city, my wife and kids, they
were like you sacrificed for us.
Dad, you can do it.
I know you can.
Now we'll do this for you.
So now it's no longer my dream.
It's my family's dream.
And that's why I have to stay.

And you're a slice of America.
You nailed it.
Thank you so much.
I just... I love you, Tate.
Like on and off-stage, you're genuinely so sweet.
You look like you're having so much fun on stage.
As a person who loves country music, I really think you have what it takes.
Thank you so much.
Uh, tat you know what?
Tonight it actually feels that you've arrived back in this competition.
That's how it feels.
And you know what I like?
This is why I like this show.
I like giving guys like you a break, you know?
Thank you.
How old are you?
37.
You think he can sell records, Demi?
I do.
At 37.
I think he looks like a pop star.
I do as well.
Tate, I'm really proud of you.
If America's in a voting mood, I hope they vote for you, my friend.
Thank you.
Nice, Tate.
Nice comments right there.
Now, remember, Tate's future is in your hands.
So please remember to vote at the end of the show.
Yes.
And after the break, lyric 145
takes one of the biggest movie songs of all time and, trust me,
you do not want to miss this one.
After the break.
Welcome back.
Next up is one of the groups.
First, I'm backstage and it's chaos back here, and I am feeling all the nerves.
Simon, can you please introduce your next act?
Yes, I most certainly can.
The movie is "Mary poppins."
The group are lyric 145.
We can sel.
Hey, daddy.
We're brothers.
We were born in queens, New York.
An area where there's drugs and gangs.
We had good parents who always kept us away from that.
To be that right now from the situation we were in, it's
definitely a blessing.
Love you guys.
We're from one of the most dangerous cities in the country.
People don't make it out of here.
This is our destiny.
She was a single parent.
She did whatever she could to put food on the table.
I want to stay in the competition and show my mom that
her believing in me didn't go in vain.
Let's go one more time.
This week's theme is movie week.
And the song we picked, nobody's going to expect it.
I guarantee you.
They have really surprised me, and I think
there's a gap in the market for a group like this.
We're going to do it in our style.
We're going to shock everyone.
We are here to prove to Erica that we belong in this competition.

Okay, lyric.
All right.
So...
Uh-oh, uh-oh.
You broke my Mike, lyric.
First of all, I hated it.
I completely hated it.
But you shouldn't be bothered by that, because the truth is I
think I'm going crazy because it was really good.
It was a really good choice of song.
I loved the song choice.
It was inventive.
I... it's not my personal cup of tea.
But I think it was perfect, though.
Thank you, L.A.
Thank you, so much.
I felt that your theatrics and everything you
brought to the table was really, really intriguing and interesting to watch.
I loved it.
It was very entertaining.
Thank you, Britney.
You guys got me so hyped.
Yeah.
Who knew in that rusty old brain there were some cool,
hip, fresh thoughts.
You guys nailed it.
Well, first of all, lyric chose the song.
And it was an incredibly brave choice of song.
I thought taking everything into account, you were bloody fantastic!
That was all Mary poppins lyrics.
I know you didn't miss a beat.
If you liked what you saw, remember, you have to vote for
them at the end of the show.
Our next singer has had a crazy week.
It's diamond white when we come back.
Yeah.
Welcome back to "The X Factor,"
everyone.
Right now here's tonight's next singer.
She is one of the teens and she's had a wild week so far.
First, she was off the show.
And now she's back on.
So, Britney, please introduce your next act.
You guys are going to see why we had to bring this girl back.
This is miss diamond white.
Last week when I got sent home, it was the worst day of my life.
Diamond.
Earlier this week, I was asked to do what I thought was my last interview.
It's hard, but I have to push through it, because there's
nothing else I can do.
Next thing you know I get this call.
Hello?
Hi, diamond?
Hi.
Hi, it's Britney.
How are you?
I'm good.
How are you?
I'm good, sweetie.
I met with the other three judges, and we all agree there
was one contestant who was just too good to let go, and,
diamond, that contestant is you.
Oh, thank you so much, Britney.
Oh, my gosh.
You have no idea how much this means.
Oh, my God.
I'm back in, mom.
We felt like if anybody needed to perform in
front of America, it was definitely you.
I want to prove to the judges and America they made the right
decision in bringing me back.

Well, diamond, first of all, welcome back.
We're so happy to see you back on that stage.
Thank you.
And I thought that was an ambitious song choice.
And it concerned me a little bit.
But when you went to the modulation, you know you brought it home, girl.
You know you did.
Thank you.
Diamond, I'm like trying really hard not to cry.
We love you, diamond!
I love you, too.
I'm still a huge fan of Whitney Houston, and that just
tugged at my heart.
So phenomenal.
Thank you.
You know what, diamond?
This just proves dreams can come true, right?
Yes.
How old are you, 13
years old?
Yes.
You were kicked out of the competition.
You came back fighting, gutsy, great song, great vocal.
I'm so happy y're back in this competition.
Yay.
Thank you so much.
I feel like you definitely channeled Whitney in
that performance, and she would be very proud.
Oh, my gosh!
Thank you so much.
Amazing job.
How do you feel to be back?
I feel awesome.
And I'm extra awesome right now.
You did amazing.
Diamond white is rocking the white tonight.
Up next to perform for your votes, the final singer from the young adults.
Here is her mentor, Demi Lovato.
Go ahead, Demi.
My next contestant has come so far.
I'm so proud of her.
Welcome Cece frey.
Last week definitely wasn't a great start to the competition for me.
It's crazy to think that today instead of being here, I could
be back in decatur.
Decatur is a farm town.
My dad was a farmer.
My mom was a stay-at-home mom.
We did not always have, like, means.
When we had school, they drove the school buses so they could
spend more time with us.
I want to make it for my family.
Lord knows we've had some ups and downs in our lives.
This week I got "eye of the tiger" from "rocky."
I want you to come out and fight as hard as you can.
This week is up to America.
I'm going to show everybody what it means to have the eye of the tiger.

Hi, Cece.
Hello.
Okay.
First of all, the ending was really strong.
I love how you ended it.
This is one of the performances that, like, you check out all the boxes, right?
Right song, right energy, great production.
But for whatever reason, the sum total of it all just didn't blow me away.
I'm so sorry.
All right.
I felt like you brought fire, you were really courageous.
I loved it.
Thank you.
I think anything recognizable about you from the
beginning has been thrown away and this song choice was just horrible.
Absolutely horrible.
And once again, no imagination.
Nothing different really from the original.
The ending was okay.
But, Cece, you are being taken into a direction you shouldn't be going into.
And I actually think you should be making your own song
decisions, because twice in a row now, I'm afraid you've got
this utterly wrong.
Did you like the song that you sang?
Yes, I did.
Was it the song out of the choices that we were
thinking of you wanted to sing?
This week I wanted to show all of you at home that I can be
the fierce girl that walked into this competition and I think that I did that.
I think it's important for everyone to see how far you've come.
You've transformed into someone that you know that you want to be.
And I'm going to help you go whichever direction you want to go.
I'm very proud of you.
Thank you very much.
Were you happy with your performance?
Yeah.
I had fire on stage.
That was pretty cool.
Just to be clear, how do you pronounce your last name?
It is frey.
Like French fry.
You can vote for Cece frey and all your favorites at the end of the show.
If you're a verizon subscriber, you can vote by text as well as by phone.
Calls are toll-free from landlines.
Message and data rates may apply to text votes.
Yes.
Next up, can 13-year-old carly rose sonenclar get your votes?
Stay right here.
Welcome back to "The X Factor."
The theme this song is song from the movies.
Yes.
Let's go to silver screen goddess Britney Spears.
Britney, please introduce your next contestant.
I feel like miss carly rose has so much to give
in this performance and you guys are going to be really surprised.
This is miss carly rose.
I started singing when I was 2.
♪ LA, LA, LA, LA ♪
Let's hear what the judges have to say.
Here's Simon.
He's a tough judge, that Simon.
I live in a small town, Westchester.
My mom was a graphic designer and my dad is a copyrighter.
My brother is a sophomore in college.
It's hard to reach to him as much as I want to.
He's really supportive of everything I do.
Love you.
Bye.
I definitely miss him a lot.
Last week there was a lot of production behind me.
It just wasn't me.
I hope Britney understands that.
This time it's going to be stripped down, just your vocals,
which I think will be really good for me.
If I'm sent home this season, it will be heartbreaking.
It means everything.

Thank you.
Yeah.
Carly, that was really heart-felt.
It was honest.
I loved it.
And I love you.
Thank you.
I think that seeing you this week compared to last week,
I mean, it's night and day.
This is you in your element.
Thank you.
I would watch this over and over again.
You're incredible.
You really are.
Thank you.
Yeah, carly, I've got to say, I agree.
The difference between last week and this week is... is such a
huge improvement.
I've got to tell you.
And I think the... you would have a hit with a song like that.
And the fact that you gave it so much and, again, you've got real
guts for someone your age.
And I think... I've got a feeling with you, carly, we're
watching a star in the making.
I really do.
Thank you, Simon.
I feel like you should have closed the show,
because nobody can follow that.
Thank you.
Wow!
Amazing comments.
That was amazing.
After the break, San Francisco's Jason Brock takes the stage.
But will he win your votes at home?
Stay tuned.
Welcome back to "The X Factor."
The final 13 are singing for your votes for the very first time tonight.
And if you want to download any of their performances, you can find them all at
thexfactorusa.Com.
Yes.
And next we're back to the over 25s with a guy who's never been
afraid to be himself.
Here's his mentor, L.A. Reid.
Yes.
From the film "space jam,"
please welcome to the stage Mr. entertainment.
This is Jason Brock.
I was born in overton, Texas, which is a couple hours away from Dallas.
I lived with my mom and my dad and my two brothers and my sister.
As a kid, I was definitely Mr. entertainment.
I was doing, like, singing, dance routines, you know, all
that around the house.
But my dad was always like act like a guy and play football.
I moved to San Francisco about five years ago.
I fit in great there.
And it's where I really like to be.
There's something about Mr. entertainment that's really entertaining.
I've chosen a song that I really believe is a soul stirrer, and
he can really show his stuff.
You got to figure out how to give emotion until you get to
like the very end and then just... this is the first week of public vote.
Right.
This is a key performance.

Thank you.
Thank you, everybody.
Thank you.
It's definitely an improvement from last week.
It's way better.
But I still feel like it's a Vegas lounge act.
You literally took the words out of my mouth.
I feel like... I feel like L.A.
Hasn't really guided you in the direction that you are as an artist.
And I feel like you... I think it's very predictable and it's
very cabaret, and you are so much better than that.
You have an incredible voice, and you're so likeable.
Yeah, here's the problem, Jason.
I like you, but I don't believe you could fly.
Maybe jump a couple of inches off the ground.
But definitely not fly.
And the problem is, is that you do have a good voice, and you're
very likeable, but the way that you're dressed, you look like a
singer in an Italian restaurant.
Oh, my God.
Seriously.
Wow.
Who's working there who just decided to sing "I believe I can fly."
So I think there's a lot of work that needs to be done with you.
Okay.
You know what?
This week it's not up to them.
It's up to America.
And I think you did an excellent job.
Thank you, L.A.
All you have to do is spread your wings, because you know what, Jason?
You can fly, my friend.
Thank you very much, L.A.
Britney, you said he was very loungy.
What song would you have him do if you were his mentor?
Something more urban.
Like what?
"Scream" by Usher.
Okay.
That's a good idea.
Thank you.
I'm keeping my hands to myself, Mario.
You spread those wings, Jason.
Coming up after the break, it's the last of the breaks.
They used to be called lylas.
Then 1432.
Then Simon asked you to pick a new name.
We'll find out when we come back.
Welcome back to "The X Factor."
Tonight 13 acts are singing for a spot in next week's show.
In a couple of minutes, we'll open up the voting lines and you
will decide who goes through and who's going home.
That's right.
We're going to get those results tomorrow night.
And we're going to have two live songs from the incredible one direction.
That's tomorrow night at 8:00, 7:00 central, so make sure you
don't go anywhere.
You don't want to miss that tomorrow.
No.
Okay, so next up is the last of the groups.
But right now they do not have a name.
Simon, you're their mentor.
Can you tell us what America decided to name them?
Thank you, America.
You helped us out here.
The movie is "twilight."
The name... I better get this right... is fifth harmony.
We have a variety of personalities.
One minute I can be sweet.
She's the adorable one.
She's super funny.
Love you, boo.
She's the older sister.
Lauren is definitely cute.
I'm not like mean.
There's something really infectious about this group.
We balance each other out.
It's been really hard to gel as a group because we didn't
have a name, but we finally found one, and it is fifth harmony.
Here comes fifth harmony.
I dig it, I dig it.
Let's take it from the top.
Now we have to practice every minute of every day.
We're going to try our best to prove to Simon, to the
judges, and to America that we deserve to stay here.

Fifth harmony, well, I really can't say anything about the
name, because America picked the name for you, right?
So waah, waah, but America picked the name.
We like it.
I was impressed.
I have to tell you I was impressed with your singing.
I think you guys nailed it.
I think you figured out exactly how to start the song and who
should finish the song.
I couldn't be more proud of you.
What can I say?
Thank you.
This week from last week is night from day.
You guys shined the whole way.
You really did.
I was really impressed.
You guys are all powerful vocalists.
That's what's different from you than different girls.
I wasn't crazy about the arrangement of the song, but I
loved your vocals on it.
Thank you.
Girls, again, the transformation week on week has been enormous.
I think there's something incredibly exciting about your potential.
I really genuinely can feel something special.
I thought the vocals were stunning.
The performance was fantastic.
I could not be more proud of you girls.
Wow!
Great job tonight, ladies.
Okay.
The power now crosses to you, America.
You've seen all 13 acts.
Only 12 can stay in the competition.
So here we go.
Lines are now open.
Here is all the info you need to vote.
Now, please remember these are 855 numbers, not 800
or 866.
So dial carefully.
And you can vote as often as you'd like by toll-free and text.
You can also download the xtra factor app and use verizon touch voting.
Just a reminder... voting will stay open for two hours after the show.
What a show it was, Khloe?
It was fantastic.
None of these acts will go through to the top 12
unless you vote.
Make a call, send a text, do whatever to make sure your
favorite act stays in the competition.
We'll have the amazing one direction performing live.
That's tomorrow 8:00, 7:00
central.
Stay tuned for your local news.
From everyone here at "The X Factor."
It's good night, everyone.
Good night, everyone.
Thank you.
