Many of the winners and past contestants from these shows have actually been successful and are known in their home countries and even all over the world but there are some past contestants who are known for their auditions going wrong.

Triple Trouble - Gemma, George and Maria auditioned for The X Factor UK saying that they wanted to spread the message that not all teenagers are violent, do drugs or behave badly which is a great message but their performace singing Umbrella by Rihanna was terrible and George spoke horribly to Simon, told the audience to "shut up" and threw his microphone down.  ht...
