The latest video from X Factor Malta to go viral on the X Factor Global page features recently eliminated contestant Nicole Borg. Nicole had gathered some attention when she first auditioned, after explaining that a previous singing competition had rejected her because of her size.

The judges were visibly moved by Nicole’s rendition of the Radiohead classic ‘Creep’. All four of the judges commended her for her passion, emotion, and power while singing. Despite earning some criticism from Howard on her use of vibrato, she got four ‘yeses’ and progressed to the bootcamp round.

As it stands, the video is well on its way to hitting a million views, with Nicole’s emotional audition hitting over 800,000 views in less than a week.

The X Factor Global clip included a poll that asked people what they thought of the audition: ‘FANTASTIC!’ or ‘Could have been better’. The results currently rack up to a whopping 76% on the side of ‘FANTASTIC’.

Unfortunately, Nicole was eliminated during the bootcamp leg of the competition, but Howard Keith took to Facebook to express his hopes that she returns to audition again next year.

“I remember this room audition well,” the X Factor Malta judge told his followers on Facebook. While congratulating Nicole for going viral, Howard Keith expressed his wish that the talented singer would go back to the competition next year and takes his advice to “lessen the needless vibrato”.
