Whilst Michael is away, Josh takes the reins and chats to one of Australia’s biggest child prodigies, Jai Waetford.
Jai was an unknown 14 year old kid who stumbled into an X Factor audition, as a dare from friends. Seconds into the performance, Ronan Keating looked absolutely shocked and was left speechless by Waetford’s performance.
The now famous audition, has amassed over 22 million views on YouTube and turned Jai into an overnight international superstar.

He has toured the globe and opened for some of the  biggest artists worldwide including, Selena Gomez, Lil’ Minx, Chris Brown and many more. 

Jai talks about living the high life in LA, rubbing shoulders with Hollywood elites. He also goes into his insane encounters such as spotting Hayley Baldwin hooking up with Justin Bieber before anyone else knew. There was also a drunken “jacuzzi night” with Charlize Theron!

Although it wasn’t always glitz and glamour, Jai openly discusses his mental health struggles that coincided with rapidly reaching the top of the mountain at such a young age.

This is an Ep you simply can’t miss!
