Olly Murs - X Factor 2009
Thursday, 8th October 2009.
Olly Murs is hoping to land the biggest prize in pop so he doesn’t have to go back to his day job as an energy advisor.
Not that the 25 year-old doesn’t enjoy giving people hints on how to save energy in their household… he’d just rather be on stage than in an office.
The Essex boy applied for The X Factor last year but was rejected at the very first stage.
Not one to throw the towel in, Olly picked himself up and has spent the last year gigging in a duo called Small Town Blaggers.
He still lives with his parents and really wants to make them and his twin brother proud.
We’re just glad he didn’t bring his twin along or we’d have had another John and Edward situation on our hands.
Best of luck Olly!
