It was devastating."[11]He was in severalTake ThatandWestlifetribute bands inIbiza,[2]and was also part of a Spanish boy band called 4bidden until 2010.[9][12]

In 2010, he appeared in four episodes of theBBCseriesJohn Bishop's Britain.He was then a finalist on theSky Livingmodelling seriesSigned by Katie Price.[13]

The X Factor

edit

In May 2012, Clark auditioned for theninth seriesofThe X FactoratThe O2 Arenain London in front ofLouis Walsh,Gary Barlow,Tulisaand guest judgeRita Ora.He performed a dance version ofDes'ree's "Kissing You".Afterwards, Barlow said:" Rylan, love your personality, hate your voice, really strange song choice as well. "Walsh also admitted that he was" a bit worried ". Barlow gave Clark a" no ", but Ora, Tulisa and Walsh all decided to say" yes "and put him through to bootcamp.[14]

At bootcamp, Clark sangthe Pussycat Dolls' "Don't Cha"with former Pussycat DollNicole Scherzinger,who was then a judge. After his performance, Barlow admitted: "[I] think he's going to haunt me throughout this competition." Barlow was reluctant to send Clark through to judges' houses, but the other three judges were in favour of him advancing. Clark was eventually put through into the boys category with Scherzinger as his mentor. At judges' houses inDubai,he performed a stripped-back rendition ofRihanna's "We Found Love"in front of Scherzinger andNe-Yo.Scherzinger later put Clark through to the live shows as one of her final three acts withJames ArthurandJahméne Douglas.She told him: "Rylan, it's such a big risk... but I have to take it, and you are in my final three", and he appeared to have an immense breakdown.[15]

Clark sang "Gold"bySpandau Balletin the first week of the live shows, and was in the bottom two withCarolynne Poolethe following night. Scherzinger voted to save Clark, as he was her act, while Barlow and Tulisa voted to save Poole, based on their final showdown performance. Walsh, who had the casting vote, voted to save him, sending the result to deadlock, in which Clark had received more public votes than Poole and was saved, much to the disgust of Barlow, who stormed off stage and who later called Clark a "joke act" and "talentless".[16]

In week 2, Clark continued to annoy Barlow by first performing part of Barlow's "Back for Good"and then claiming that he had booked him a cab in advance in case he stormed off-stage again, to which Barlow responded" That's funny [because] I've had yours on hold for two weeks. "[17]That week, he was put through to week three on the public vote.[18]In week 5, he was again in the bottom two withKye Sones,but he was saved by the public vote. This happened after Barlow and Walsh voted to eliminate Clark, while Scherzinger and Tulisa, who had the casting vote, voted to eliminate Sones. Tulisa sent the result to deadlock and Sones was eliminated.[19]In week 7, Clark revealed onThe Xtra Factorthat his psychic had told him that he would reach week 7 of the competition before leaving.[20]The following night, he advanced to the quarter-final through the public vote,[21]before being eliminated by the judges in the quarter-final, with only Scherzinger voting to save him overUnion J.[22]
