Morning Man Encore: Olly Murs!
Originally posted Nov. 26, 2010
Socialite Life, a site that I am completely addicted to, had one of its “cute boy alert” items about this boy who most certainly is cute.
His name is Olly Murs.
Olly is an English singer-songwriter who was the runner-up last year on The X Factor. He is currently signed to Syco Music and Epic Records and in August released his first single Please Don’t Let Me Go. It immediately reached number one on the UK charts.
Olly is 26 and when he auditioned for The X Factor, he performed Stevie Wonder’s Superstition. You had a feeling he’s go far in the competition when judge Simon Cowell said after his audition that it was “the easiest ‘yes’ I’ve ever given.”
He managed to made it through to the live finals where he was mentored by Cowell and frequently employed dance moves in his performance including his trademark “Olly wiggle.” He again sang Superstition in the finals and ended up coming in second to Joe McElderry.
His self-titled first album was released this month!
