Rylan Clark shared this sweet pic with Nicole Scherzinger – 11 years after she changed his life
Rylan famously cried his eyes out when he got put through to the live rounds
The TV and radio star is now one of the biggest presenters in the UK
The pair are seen reuniting in a throwback snap, as he celebrated over a decade after she put him through to the X Factor live rounds.
Sharing the sweet snap on Instagram of them both, he simply wrote: “11 years.”
Rylan shot to fame, when he took part in X Factor, and he’s never looked back since.
While finding out you’re through to the live finals can be an emotional time for anyone – NOONE’S reaction was ever quite been like Rylan’s.
In 2012, as he sat down with Nicole, the emotional wannabe was barely keeping it together as he waited to discover his fate.
When she told him he was through, the star fell to the floor in the most dramatic fashion, pulling the most wonderful ugly cry face as he struggled to breathe through his tears.
After thinking it was a wind up, the star then buried his face into a pillow as dramatic music played.
In his 2019 autobiography, The Life Of Rylan, the TV star poked fun at his legendary meltdown.
“No one could control me,” he admitted. “Genuine fear covered [Nicole’s] face.”
“At one point I think Nicole even asked if there was a paramedic because she thought I was having a fit,” he added. “After a while I realised I needed to assure everyone I was just so shocked and not indeed dying on the spot.”
He then revealed how he proceeded to hit X Factor host Dermot O’Leary.
“Dermot received the tail-end of the storm, with me repeatedly screaming that he was out of order for having a poker face, and also with me hitting him around the legs whilst I was crouched down in the foetal position on the floor.”
Rylan has since gone on to become one of the UK’s most sought after presenters.
His rise to fame has been meteoric and he is now one of the biggest stars in Britain.
Not only does he have a net worth of around £5M, he also has a huge Essex mansion, and job offers pouring in all the time.
