Skyelor Anderson

'X Factor' judge L.A. Reid is confident someone from his boys team will bring home the $5 million grand prize, and on Thursday night America and guest judge Rihanna saw why. Four of the eight contestants sang for their reality lives, with three of them leaving strong impressions.

16-year-old 'X Factor' hopeful Skyelor is quite the gem. Not only is he a rarity since he is a black teenager singing country music, but his main motivation for wanting to have a successful music career? So he could get his mother to stop working so hard and help to support her. Um, where do we sign up for a son so thoughtful and gentlemanly?
