Filipino-Australian Cyrus Villanueva Makes It Into the X Factor Semi-Finals

19-year-old Filipino-Australian singer Cyrus Villanueva has made it into the X-Factor Australia’s final four after wowing the judges yet again with his rendition of “Love Me Like You Do”. Watch his rendition of it here:

“Cyrus, you are definitely a force to be reckoned with,” said Guy Sebastian, a singer and also one of the judges of the show. “You very rarely set a foot wrong in this competition – you deserve to be there.”

Even James Blunt admitted that Cyrus chose a tough song to sing, but said “you’re the one person in this competition who can pull it off – awesome.”

Dannii Minogue shared that some people were standing and others were even crying. You gotta admit: Cyrus is pretty good. And pretty cute, too. It’s no wonder his fans kept going wild during his performance. Here’s to hoping he comes to the Philippines, whether he wins or not (of course we’re hoping he does!)
