Just like Susan Boyle on Britain’s Got Talent, Danyl Johnson has been this years highest profile X Factor auditionee. He was a youtube sensation before he even made it to the show’s final 12 acts and it seems like the pressure and expectations may be too much for him to take.

Last night we watched Danyl crumble as Louis called him unlikeable and Dannii brought his sexuality into play. However sources suggest that Danyl was also in tears during his pre-show rehearshal.

An eye witness told The People: “Danyl was an absolute mess.

“People were worried about whether he would be able to hold it together on the night.”

The source claimed that Danyl was struggling with Cowell’s choice of the Jennifer Hudson song `I Am Telling You’.

The source added: “He came off stage and just burst out crying.”

If he was nervous before the show, no doubt he is even more stressed and upset today. He took quite beating from the judges last night!
