The X Factor

Boot camp in Miami, Florida.

Time to grow up.

It's about to get real.

Boot camp is the epitome of tough.

If you're not strong mentally, you're gonna crumble.

'Cause you have one shot.

One mistake at this stage of the game, it's a wrap.

You're going home.

The judges already said, you need to bring it, and if you

don't bring it, you're going home.

Come on, entertain.

Uh-oh, she's calling you out.

It's, like, go time.

$5 million.

Commit!

It's cutthroat, so y'all better watch it.

I want my mom.

A 19-year-old girl just stood there and outshined me.

They didn't call this boot camp for no reason, I'll tell you that.

It's a sing-off.

Let's do it.

Some of you actually nailed it.

I'm here to win.

I just up serious.

This is gonna be hard.

A big yes.

Seriously.

You're through.

I'm afraid that it's bad news.

She's crying.

What's up, daddy?

Hey, tre, what's goin' on, babe, huh?

Nothin' much, nothin' much.

You getting ready to go?

Yup, headed to boot camp.

Boot camp?

In Miami, Florida.

Wow.

Yes, sir, I'm excited.

You know you'll do it.

All right, dad.

I'll make sure of that.

How do you feel about your, uh, big day?

I'm ready.

I'm so proud of you.

It's time to grow up.

You take the big one.

We're literally gonna be on a totally different beach on the

other side of America.

I'm so stoked.

Yeah, yeah, same here.

This is, like, our last second of bliss before we dive into

this boot camp chaos.

Hang on a minute, jennel.

One minute.

Wait for me.

You know how proud I am, all of us, of you.

Yeah.

Thanks.

I love you.

All right.

Bye, honey.

You did a great job today.

Thanks.

So how are you feeling?

It's just really scary.

I don't know.

It's just really scary.

Don't be scared.

It's your time now.

Do it.

You've worked for it.

I wouldn't be going where I am right now without you.

You do it for yourself, kid.

We've brought roughly 120

acts from the auditions to Miami.

By the end of the week, there'll be 24 people left standing.

You know the words?

Yeah, I'm ready.

I know the words.

I'm ready to do this.

My journey begins now.

These contestants will work harder than they've ever had to

work before.

This is boot camp.

We put them up at one of the nicest hotels in Miami because

we want them to have a feel of the lifestyle that success can bring to you.

This is serious, like... yeah.

It's like, I gotta win.

Here we go.

This hotel is amazing.

Dude, it's so dope.

It makes me nervous, though.

Are they just giving us the good stuff before they slaughter us?

I mean, this is so crazy.

I know.

I can't believe that we're here.

See that white house over there?

That one's gonna be mine.

Okay, well, I'll take the little one then.

I'll buy you the little one.

It looks great.

The hotel's fantastic.

But this is not gonna be a holiday.

This will be the most intense week of their lives.

Guys, let's go.

The band's on the bus, guys.

Let's get moving.

Come on.

Load on the bus.

We're gonna push them to their limits with a series of challenges.

The contestants are coming in.

Thank you.

For their first task, the contestants will perform one

song in front of each other.

They've all made a decision in advance what song they're gonna bring.

They've got to do whatever they can with that song and make it original.

No second chances.

You either stand out, or you go home.

And I think it's gonna be very intimidating when you've

got 120 acts around you because they're judging you as well as us now.

This is the first time they're really gonna get to see who

their true competition really is.

120 acts standing there right now.

By the end of the day, half are going home.

Oh, this is gonna be a fight.

You're looking for killers.

Boy... Okay.

First up... diamond white.

You got it, diamond.

A lot of people say that it means way more than the world.

Like, this is, like, the stepping way to the big show.

Like, there's nothing big enough to explain, like, how much this means.

Hey, guys, what's up?

How are you, sweetheart?

Good, how are you?

Well, you had a good first audition, didn't you?

Yes.

Yeah, okay.

Good luck.

That's a great version of the song.

She's amazing.

But she's only the first one I've seen.

Thank you.

She's 13.

Our styles are very similar, so I'm a little nervous about

that one.

Well, we're at boot camp.

There's 120 acts right now, standing onstage.

By the end of the day, half are going home.

You only get to sing one song.

One chance to impress us, so the pressure is on.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Austin corini.
