X Factor NZ: Judges shocking reaction to Joe Irvine's performance [LIVE]

Judges reaction to Joe Irvine's performance on the first live show of the X Factor NZ. As a result Natalia Kills and Willy Moon were fired from the show.

[@mysterion615]

She copies Cleopatra, Dora and Willy Wonka but she doesn't get criticised. What a hypocrite, her and her husband.

[@chichememan3751]

Yeah

[@ssimyn8092]

I can’t with Dora, you killed me at Dora WAHAHAHAHAH. 🤣

[@hannamaegesurem6448]

Willy Wonka 🤣🤣🤣

[@karinalopez4541]

🤣🤣🤣

[@zubinchang5755]

Let’s not forget Lord Farquad

[@justintufono4096]

Her husband is literally a white man in a suit. You can't claim that as your style. That's like saying Vin Diesel copied me by wearing a white tee shirt and bald head... So stupid.

So if he's copying willy doesn't that mean willy also looks like norman bates And.don't.you copy cleopatra legendary 👏

[@john-alexcdmtv1627]

No she is a horror version of Cleopatra

[@harrieangel24]

She claims to be an artist who RESPECTS creative integrity and intellectual property (whatever!), but fails to RESPECT a singing contestant who happens to be a human being with feelings. 😣🙁😖

[@365_P4RTYGIRL]

İt was a fake statement-

[@planktonau]

Great 'behind the scenes' video. The crowd was really behind him. Thanks for posting it.

[@lukemckenzie0121]

You can even hear the jeers better in this version. People saying “he’s better than Willy” and how even ten other two judges are trying to save Joe’s feelings by repeatedly dismissing their comments and trying to get across that what they’re saying isn’t true.

[@ElledieWildAndFree]

The host was also wearing a suit, and has got a similar hairstyle, but she didn't have a go at him, did she?

[@isaiahdewitz7851]

Preach man😌👏🙏

[@iPandaliciouz]

+ElledieWildAndFree I was thinking the same thing, It must have been really awkward for him to hear that and then stand next to Joe.. LOL

[@AlexRiversMusic]

Exactly

[@theresia-jn2dy]

When you sit as a judge doesn't mean you may to bully the contestant.

[@lizsmith1796]

If she wants to talk about originality, then tell he husband Johnny Cash called and he wants his style back.

Seriously, is it illegal to dress the way you want?

[@randomstuffs9103]

yes because they copyrighted the suit 😅

[@trudesoto7807]

People didn't know what "doppleganger" meant and cheered.

[@MonaRoo88]

But doppelgänger doesn’t mean something negative. It can be a huge compliment. They just didn’t realize what ass hats these two were.

[@lukemckenzie0121]

It’s because they all thought she was saying it as a compliment. If she’d stoped there nobody would’ve said anything

[@KadeemLiburd]

I think they thought she was complimenting him

[@abigailgarcia3090]

I initially thought it was a compliment. I’ve never heard of her husband, I thought she was going to say “doppelgänger to Frank Sinatra or Michael Buble” you know the people her husband actually copies. This is a genre like wtf 😂

[@gemsplus7583]

He sings better than the husband that is why they are angry. Also his voice is better.

[@namNguyen-xo7wx]

THAT IS TRUE!!!1

[@jesasantonia7097]

Yes you're right

Exactly. Smh what is she talking about? Her husband agreeing with her is so stupid as well. Glad they are out.

[@ben-hn2ek]

He looks like a random guy from gta5 😂😂🙂

[@shushi4503]

Her husband just looked like a random guy in a suit who happend to passed by and probably made him sit on that chair and speak nonsense beside his wife who looked like someone who over slept and was late so she just grab a charcoal pencil and draw her eyebrows just like that. Wow that made me out of breath typing that one sentence 😮‍💨

[@ZombieMiraculer74]

He looks dressed like Rick Astley he should be ashamed of himself

[@ameliaharrison6242]

Hey Natalia, Dora called and wants her wig back.

[@liamwright2510]

No capes 😂

[@streathamsoprano8025]

Did anyone notice how they scowled at him and refused to clap when he finished singing? Horrible. Unfortunately, while they may no longer have a career, they'll still make money when curious people click on their videos. And I seriously want to marry the dude in the audience who shouted "You look sexy!". By the way Milly MC, you deserve to be knighted for filming this because we can now see how it really happened... editing on TV sucks! Well done.

[@DGHF]

Elite gurl what?

[@d11d77]

It was actually the judge next to her. He said "But didn't you copy celopatra?" Joe was completely polite.

[@NJDMashups]

Kills and Moon think they are original? Moon looks like a washed-out Timberlake Wannabe, and Kills looks like she's trying to be a mix between Beyoncé and Lady Gaga. At least with Timberlake, Beyoncé and Gaga, we actually listen to their music.

[@newyyykkll]

WOW I didn't even know the audience were this close to the judges on set

[@mskittykat1101]

OMG boycott these idiots music. How horrible to put a 17 year old through that on TV in front of millions. Joe brought his A-game and he can sing!

Someone can tell me who the heck is Natalia and her husband? And why Natalia copies Lady Gaga .. My cat use a tuxedo.

[@zigozevenzeventyzeven2215]

Who they think they (Natalia Kills and Willy Moon) are? Who in this X-Factor New Zealand franchise got the idea that these arrogant couple can properly critique the aspiring contestants. They should have not been in those chairs in the first place, with these attitude! They should include psychological testings for the judges from now on, after this fiasco. Nice that Joe Irvine is classy and did not let these bullying get into his nerves.

[@Aussie_Hawaiian_boy]

Plus joe Irvine a great singer

[@MRSJGIRL1]

All she ever did was copy Lady Gaga.

[@heylamb123]

Reading through some of the comments here. I think we need to consider that this sort of talent shows are mostly set up and staged prior to its production. Have you ever wondered why there's no one having any interview after this kinda incident happened?

[@williamj.s.rodriguez4761]

Yeah, I agree what remember was the ratings for X-Factor NZ were not good because it wasn't fabricated (like all reality shows) without Simon Cowell and they succeeded to stay on but failed on Natalia Kills and Willy Moon again they need a mean one but instead it blew up on them.

[@167kinggam]

yeah this is why i can't hate on her too much, just because of the possibility that the producers set this up.

[@robertprice4826]

They signed iron clad NDAS Gary barlow book exposed the show..

[@ninadeacon7434]

Pretty sure Joe can wear whatever clothes he wants and have his hair in any style he wants Natalia is a bully and her husband isn't the only one with that hairstyle and suit as someone else said the host was wearing a similar suit and hairstyle

[@dxxthly]

I'm glad I saw the actual version an wasn't there. I feel like if I paid money to see a show Id wanna hear the fucking show. Instead Id be there spinning in a tornados motion with my arm out close lining people that fucking scream for no reason.

Hmm..don't think he copied the husband probably Michael Buble..he is singing cry me a river by Michael B. and in the music video he was wearing a suit too..But they should criticized his performance and not his appearance. He maybe only been inspired by Michael Buble.

So now they see him dressed in a similar style to Mr C....she runs him down because she thinks he is trying to impress her..she thinks he's infatuated with her and Mr Crabbypants actually feels threatened by him that's why he calls him a serial killer....he's saying look at you, you've got no chance with my wife.
