And we think he’ll be FAB.
We can’t be the only ones who regularly forget that Rylan Clark-Neal began his rise to fame on X Factor.
Yes, as soon as you’re reminded, memories of that emotional breakdown come flooding back and we relive the magic once again.
Since his days facing the criticism of Gary Barlow (yeah, remember he was a judge that year?) Rylan’s career has gone from strength to strength, securing gigs on everything from Big Brother to This Morning.
Well, the star has now announced his latest career move and it’s bringing him right back to his roots – sort of.
It was revealed today that Rylan will be joining the panel of judges for the UK’s song contest competition to find their hopeful for this year’s Eurovision.

Yep, the self-proclaimed Eurovision superfan will sit alongside Rochelle Humes and McFly’s Tom Fletcher to judge this year’s competition to decide who the UK will be sending to Lisbon in May for this year’s Eurovision Song Contest.
The news comes just a week after Ireland’s Eurovision entry was hinted to be none other than former The Voice contestant, Ryan O’Shaughnessy.
