He deserved a great break from his life, especially given his talent as well as a passion for music.
The judges were stunned by the unhoused X-Factor contestant. The X Factor judges meet a lot of candidates but have never met a performer like this.
26-year-old Robbie Hens is a vocalist who has been singing since childhood. He is fond of singing wherever he went and would stand in the middle of the street for anyone who would listen. His fondness for singing never waned and this eventually led him to enter The X Factor, a well-known series of competitions where judges search for hidden talent.
Robbie dreams of singing, but he has no idea that during the performance his big desires will become reality. As soon as the judges inquired about Robbie’s whereabouts, they were baffled. And their jaws dropped when he said that he was unhoused and had been living on the street or at friends‘ houses for the previous six years.
He used what he loved, music, to take his mind off his position. Music was the only thing he was passionate about, and he is perfect at it. And the judges witnessed that as soon as he played guitar as well as sang his version of Damien Rice’s „Coconut Skins.“
The crowd exploded as soon as Robbie began to sing. The judges were delighted with his performance. They saw that he deserved a great break from his life, especially given his talent as well as a passion for music. As a result, they voted for him on the show without hesitation. He is one step closer to achieving his dream of becoming a recording artist.
