Let's go.
I started life as a classical musician.
My mum called me the Billy Elliot of the flute.
Singing and performing is totally in my blood,
it runs through my veins, it's who I am.
I just can't stop moving my body.
I split my time between being a professional performer -
a singer and musician -
and I'm a hypnotherapist, helping performers like myself
being their best on stage.
Look at them all gossiping.
If you weren't sitting here, would you go on this competition?
No, I wouldn't, because I'd have to look at your ugly mug
and I'd have to think to myself,
"He's never going to stand up for me."
I'm not going to lie. I'm here to win.
I would like 50 grand. I've got some credit cards to pay.
For me, tonight is all about practising what I preach
and getting the 100 up on their feet.
Here comes the third performer of the night.
They need to score more than 41 to get into the top spot.
Oh, look. Oh, my God - opera, definitely.
Hello, my name's Gary.
It's usually me dishing out the advice to other performers,
so tonight I'm hopefully here to walk the talk.
He's called Gary. I love it.
They're dying out - do you know that, Garys?
# Rising up
# Back on the street
# Did my time, took my chances
# I went the distance Now I'm back on my feet
# Just a man and his will to survive
# I went the distance and I'm not gonna stop
# Just a man and his will to survive
# It's the eye of the tiger It's the thrill of the fight
# Rising up to the challenge of our rival... #
I don't know what to make of it at the moment.
# And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
# And he's watching us all with the eye
# Of the tiger
# Oh-oh-oh
# Rising up straight to the top
# Had the guts, got the glory
# Yeah
# I went the distance Now I'm not going to stop
# Just a man and his will to survive
# It's the eye of the tiger It's the thrill of the fight
# Rising up to the challenge of our rival
# And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
# And he's watching us all with the...
FALSETTO: # ..eye
# Of the tiger. #
Oh! By one!
Congratulations, Gary, you got 42 and a place in the
top three and the top spot!
You hit a note at the end I didn't know existed, mate.
I thought your head was going to fly off.
Mr Fabulous.
Hello. I must say, can we have a little twirl of this outfit?
Look at that.
AUDIENCE: Ooh! Wow! Look at that.
I know, ain't it fabulous? You look
like you've had a fight with a Slinky.
LAUGHTER
Mr Fabulous. Right. Come on, talk us through it.
Sadly, with that performance, I did not feel like Rocky Balboa.
I didn't feel the conviction. I didn't feel the fight.
Fair enough. Would it have been more Rocky if he just screamed "Adrian"
at the end - would that have helped? LAUGHTER
Adrian! OK. Yeah, maybe so.
Fair enough, fair enough.
Fair enough.
Geri, you didn't get up again.
First of all, I want to ask Gary...
Yes? ..what do you do?
So I'm a professional singer, but I'm also a hypnotherapist
for performers. Why didn't you use it?!
I'd be going, "Stand up, stand up, stand up."
One of my mantras is that it only matters what I think of me.
One of my other mantras is, there is...
It's like the Dalai Lama in a suit this, innit?
We've had two mantras already!
Once I start, I can't stop, but I do have to say,
I don't believe in rejection.
APPLAUSE I wish I knew you when I was 14, about rejection,
cos when Tracy Andrews said no to me at the school dance,
I could have done with a little chat with you,
sorted me right out. Cos she definitely rejected me.
