Filed under: Reality Television > Anglophilia > Yummy Yummy Screw > Simon CowellWe're in love!!!
His name is Ethan Boroian. He's from Chicago, Illinois, but currently living in the UK and he just gave the best audition of the new season of Simon Cowell's X Factor.
Not only can he sing, but he's sooooo dreamy. Like, soooooo dreamy dreamy dreamy.
We have a new crush!
Ethan Boroian definitely has that special "X Factor"!
Check out his audition to the Kings of Leon's Use Somebody (above).

so in love with this boy, he is absolutely amazinggggg and so adorable : )
he was hardly the best by any means! jamie afro was incredible singing sex on fire, and because of him the song went to number 6 in the UK charts, when it was previously already out of the top 40!!
although he is absolutely GORGEOUS! x
Yummy…but not the best audition =P
Me too! Love him! I hope he has more to give!
You sound like a fucking 13 year-old girl, Perez. Grow up.
I WOULD DEFINATELY SUCK ON HIS COCK
HOT
Oh my gosh! I thought it was a great cover. For people who think he has no stage presence, maybe you've never really paid attention to/aren't interested in this type of music.
Plus he's hot, which makes it even better!
Lighten all up all you negative bastards! Give this guy the moment he deserves, he was very good. Enjoy it for what it is…
wow. he's very gorgeous! thanks perez!
Wow. seriously. look at his face. he's GORGEOUS!
Re: Chicago Girl 05 – You are a fucking idiot!!!! is he supposed to say, I am from Schaumburg when people have no idea where that fuck that is…dont hate on Chicagoland u whore!!
Yes, he is ok. Prime meat future superstar and I can see why you love him.
I wonder what he will look like after he is Hollywood'ized.???
Re: getrealll –
American Idol is the American version of Pop Idol, which started in Britain. Idiot.
He is not the breakout star of the season, There have been loads of good singers equally if not better than him. I liked Ricky ( I think that was his name) from last week… Your just saying Ethan is good because he's American, yes he waqs good, but not breakout!!!
Danyl Johnson and that big afro guy were the best so far
I thought he was good, not great but good. He is very good looking though. So far the best was the Scottish guy that was on last week I think it was.
Danyl was rubbish, he was so cocky and annoying if he wins I will never watch X Factor again but in all honesty I dont think he will win. Im 99.99% sure that he wont win.
i went to high school in france with this kid, he's also an amazing guitarist
oh HELL YEAH!
:D
i have a crush now too! and he has a nice voice. maybe not for that particular song, but definitely a good voice!
Yes, I did like it, Perez.
He really kind of sucked, to be honest. No one would have given him a second wink if he looked like Jonah Hill or Seth Rogan.
i think it should be He's An Armenian…because thats what he is..
Whatever! Did you see Olly Murs??????
Watch the other videos on youtube of him he is going to be a star
that is not the best, there has bin a lot better
If he wins X-Factor, then all wars will end and there will be world peace.
hes really not the first break out star of the series. If you actually lived in England you would know that in like the 1st week there was a woman from Essex who completely wowed simon cowell. You only paid attention to this dude cos hes cute and american.
somebody has a man-boy crush, although i'm pretty sure nobody consider's you a man, rather a full blown a-hole gay guy.
that cute
Re: Shezzzz. – And you have what musical qualifications? Danyl was way better than Ethan (and hotter too). I'd say Simon's a gazillion times more qualified than you are. He not only gave Danyl a standing ovation, but he also said it was the best first audition ever. So in conclusion, you don't know anything about music.
Woopty doo.. =/
HOT!!!!! hands off perez he's mine!! haha
He's hot (great face), and he can sing well enough, but WTF is he wearing!? Really, really bad. Huge turnoff.
Also, he's kind of top-tall (i.e., he has short legs).
REALLY Sorry Perez!! SOOOOO wrong!!! Danyl Johnson all the way, and his good looking with a huge range to his voice!! I was at Danyl's audition… he is even better live!! Danyl J all the way!!! GET IT RIGHT PEREZ!!!!!!!!!!!
He IS very cute!!! but i dont think his voice is right for that particular song. So yeahh….perez i think you tend to over talk some uhh…not very great things.
no offence… luv ya!!
OMGOD. he is oh soooooooooooooooo hot! mmmm
There's been at least 2 other guys that were a lot better than him…
Yes he's cute, but too young for you, Perez.
WOW! Perez you are right. This guy is a doll and a super singer. He definitely has the X-factor.
he may be good looking but wasn't that great of a singer. if he was on american idol, he wouldn't make it past the first round.
When are you going to start your campaign to out him?
LOL!!!!!!
The only reason PEREZ loves this guy is because he has awful fashion sense LIKE PEREZ
I MEAN A SCARF…REALLY? Yuck.
OH and the singing was mediocre as well….
Great Voice.. Damn … =) see ya in a near future … future star!
The singing: whatever. THAT FACE………
SO HOT
HOT HOT HOT HOTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH OMGGG
uggh horrible,but cute
ahahaha, he's cute and American so I understand the bias. But Danyl Johnson is about 50% hotter, and 100% more talented!
How could you watch that player? I had to turn it off, forgot it's f*cked. Please fix it.
Swooon!! I'll be suprised if he doesn't make it big!
He stinks.
silky. dude's got to maintain though and stay a low flier after the beginning as well. he's a newbie nice nice though
EVERYONE: Look at Olly Murs, he is the breakout star this season! If you go to youtube.com/xfactor, Olly Murs auditioned right before Ethan Boroian. Seriously, Lol, he is soooooooo good!
He's cute, yes, but i just watched Danyl Johnson, and he was better, simple as that. Good luck to both of them.
Re: Melissa82 – Well it's called "American Idol" for a reason….
Not the best, but he's still REALLY good AND FUCKING GORGEOUS! =D
definitely agree with you on this perez
his performance was definitely amazing and he is cute ;DD lol
Hey yall dont hate. ethan is my cousin and i know that he is a completely sweet guy, really nice and funny, wouldnt hurt a fly… and he is an AMAZING singer and our whole family is so proud fo him. go ethan we love you
That fugly scarf makes him look like a big ol' queen.
OMG he is adorable…veryyyyyyy cuteeeee.
He's not even a good singer, he's decent, but not good.
boring.
mercy, he's sooo fine….
Personally, I didn't like his voice.And he got the words wrong! WTF! If you're gonna have you're big chance at least know the words. UGH. But he is very cute, enough to have all this hullabaloo for…no.
Hey everyone, please leave your comments demanding that perez post an apology about harassing Halle Berry for months about being pregnant!!… ***.. She said on Jay Leno she is NOT pregnant, yet perez was shouting it from the rooftops for soooo long claiming she was!.. **… He is always preaching about doing the right thing, and made a big stink about Kanye apologizing, I believe he absolutely owes Halle an apology! *** Please leave your comments demanding perez apologize!! *** No more harassing actresses about being pregnant! If & when they are, they will announce it themselves!! ** PEREZ NEEDS TO POST A PUBLIC APOLOGY for being SO WRONG!!!! ***
i luv him just for picking that song, i bet in a studio he would do an amazing job.
first breakout of this season?? noway! there were much better performances in earlier episodes.HES NOT GONNA WIN
Seriosusly Perez stop being such a biased pig.. just because he is American doesn't make him the best audition so far. That was a WEAK audition compared to some other people they have had like Lucie Jones. Breakout star pfft , he's hot you want to fuck him so I guess thats true in your eyes .. post Lucie Jones's video then eh?
Boring. Good thing he's hot. He would have been eaten alive in American Idol.
OMG. LOVE. He is so beautiful, and he has a fantastic voice! Perhaps not the best song choice of all time, but it gave him an ample opportunity to show off his range
New prospective future husband!
he actually does sing super good! i was hesitant cause i read the comments before i watched the clip, but i think people just like to hate on anyone perez really likes haha
hes not that great. i personally dont think he did that song justice at all
No offense to this guy, he seems really nice and cool but this version was definitely not better than kings of leon. Caleb followhill sounds like a mix between james brown and robert plant
Wow he's a hottie! Damn I wish I was a judge, haha! They have it so easy and get paid to just sit there and cast their opinion! lol
he's just hot. I really hate this song, its on ALL THE FUCKING TIME, SO annoying.
but yeah, hes not that good, hes just HOT.
O myyyyy he is fineeee. And he can sing too =]
Perez, I am really starting to question your musical knowledge. Just because you're aware of up and coming bands and musicans, doesn't mean you know anything technically about music. First, you state Taylor swift "blows our musical minds" And now this. This guy is flat the entire time, shouts half of the osng, and has no mannerisms on stage.
Really? Do his looks blind you THAT much? THis guy is a bust.
he sucks! idk wth your thinking or their thinking he killed the song
Hot!!!
Best audition? No darlings he wasn't the best we have seen so far, BUT he was good. and he is rather dreamy looking too.
Ok, He sang in one octave the whole entire time and briefly tried to hit a second octave higher but didn't make it and fucked up, an amateur singer can hit two octaves easily like that, seriously, He has a good karaoke voice and that's about it.
tl;dr Only one octave, nothing spectacular, perez is blinded by hotness once again.
He was really good! And he's cute! But i think Danyl Johnson was better!
Wow. He's actually really cute. For once Mario, you haven't picked some1 who is or was underage like Zac Efron. Also one who is actually not as ugly as the guys you normally pick, ahem, the boi from McFly… um, ew!
Danyl Johnson winner!!!
you joking?
i mean he was amazing,
but..there have been some people in this years x factor that were better,
What a stud! Hot, hot, hot!!! Oh - and niiiiice voice too!
breakout? there have been many fantastic auditions…that guy olly was really good last week…its just cause hes american you biased fat pig!
People - stop addressing Perez himself - like he actually reads your comments. He DOESN'T write this blog anymore.
No way is he the "breakout" star. He was moderatly average to be honest.
hes not the first breakout bitch!!!!! theres the other sexy kindergarden teacher!!!! your dem fatty always just saying ur opinnion hate and lov ur site!!!
As if he's the first breakout star! There have been loads of other amazing singers, I guess if they're not american they don't live up to your standards and get to be mentioned on your website? So unfair to the others
i hate how you dont post gossip on weekends/ u suck at your job
There were so many better singers than him!! He was good but not the best!
Yeah hes good, but no way the best audition!!!!!!
he didnt give the best audition of the series, he hasnt caused the most hype and its blatantly obvious you only care because hes american. NEXT!
You're only saying that cause he's american. I'm neither American nor British so I think I have a pretty objective view, but I think Americans should compete in American Idol, X factor is for the British.
I wouldn't say he's a breakout star, your only saying that Because he's pretty and american
Jamie Archer and Danyl Johnson were better….In my opinion (:
He was very goood. But he wasnt the biggest breakout star. Im sorry but youre only saying that because hes american.
Re: iluvperezhilton – I agree
At least we're not a bunch of homophobes
Hes soo handsome!..
p.s. judge cheryl cole and last years winner alexandra burke just had their videos premiere, post em!
