X Factor’s final night of season two auditions wouldn’t be complete without a younger guy for Demi Lovato to feast her eyes on! LOLz!

When 17-year-old Owen Stuart took the stage in Greensboro, he couldn’t help but confess how oh so deeply in love he was with his girlfriend, Tori.

While his sappy love story might’ve turned a lot of people off at the beginning, his vocals definitely seemed to make up for it!

Check out Owen singing AND rapping to Airplanes (above)!

He’s pretty good… once we get past the cheesiness!

But Simon was right — he does seem super committed. Guess we’ll just have to see how far he can go and if he can handle the pressures of boot camp!

Last night, we bid farewell to X Factor’s season two auditions, but the night would not have been complete without ANOTHER AH-Mazing performance!

As we saw with Freddie Combs earlier, Greensboro really impressed the judges with the hopefuls that came through!

16-year-old Lauren Jauregui quickly got added to Simon Cowell’s favorites list, when she flawlessly took on Alicia Keys’, If I Ain’t Got You!

Check out Lauren’s stunningly mature voice (above), in what L.A. Reid called the “perfect audition!”

SUCH a beautiful tone!!! We are so happy the panel loved her as much as we did!

We can’t wait to hear more from her and see how she does next week during the show’s boot camp round!

Britney Spears threw DOWN last night on X Factor!

We have now entered into the very last week of XF auditions, with Wednesday night’s episode covering more of Greensboro, San Francisco and Providence, Rhode Island!

Greensboro’s Nick Youngerman made everyone STOP! Collaborate and listen! … when he took the stage with Vanilla Ice’s iconic 1990 classic!

Check out Britney (above) getting up out of her seat and shaking that oh so sculpted booty of hers!

Nooooo, Simon! Let Brit Brit keep on dancing 'Til The World Ends! Nick CLEARLY grabbed a hold of her tightly! Ha!

The competition always needs someone who can keep the energy levels up and Nick seems like the perfect fit!

L.A. Reid finally found EXACTLY what he was looking for on X Factor!

Rocker chic contestant, Julia Bullock, left her band and lame ex-boyfriend backstage and gave Greensboro her own version of Pumped Up Kicks!

Check out Julia’s Foster The People cover (above)!!

LOVE her style! Much to her ex’s disappointment, Julia MAJORLY kicked ass and won over the entire judging panel!

And there goes Simon Cowell with one of his signature jabs! LOLz! Burn!

We’re looking forward to seeing MUCH more of Julia’s rockstar flare at boot camp and to find out which rocker will come out on top!

While last season’s runner-up, Josh Krajcik, gave X Factor a soul-stirring cover of Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah, another contestant stepped up to the challenge last night!

Jeffrey Adam Gutt showed Greensboro the meaning of singing for his life, with his rendition of the song that blew the judges away!

Taking a cue from Chris Rene’s audition, Jeffrey’s SUPER adorbz son, Talon, didn’t hurt, either! LOLz!

Check out Jeffrey’s audition (above), which, in Demi’s words, made God even rock out!!!

Dayum! What a mega compliment to be called one of the most brilliant auditions Simon Cowell’s EVER heard!

… and we all know he’s heard a shiz ton, ha!

So bittersweet!

Though the X Factor season two auditions are wrapping up in Greensboro this week, we can now officially get PUMPED for the season’s premiere in September!

From power outages to bath salt rappers and judge walkouts, Greensboro DEFINITELY had its fair share of dramz!

Check out the vid of what judges Demi Lovato, Britney Spears and LA Reid thought about all of the happenings in North Carolina (above)!!

Seriously, how aborbz is Britmi?! SO cute.

We can’t wait to see all the auditions — the good AND the bad — when X Factor premieres September 12 and 13 on FOX!

This is going to be the greatest season of any musical competition show ever!

Not only do they have Britney Spears, they have her storming off the set — with Demi Lovato too! And LA Reid!

Just yesterday, we heard all about Britney's latest get-up-and-go during a Greensboro X Factor audition. Our beautiful princess just couldn't stomach it anymore after a hopeful botched You Drive Me Crazy.

After the bedazzled man gave his, um… intriguing tribute, the three judges just got up and left… leaving Simon Cowell alone to tell the man she didn't quite understand his gesture.

But they're all explaining their actions now. And to our pleasant surprise, they're being completely honest! According to them:
