Rylan Clark's extreme reaction to the news he had won a place in The X Factor live shows was a major talking point on Twitter as the finalists were revealed on Sunday night.
The 23-year-old burst into tears upon learning from Nicole Scherzinger that he had made it through to the live shows, and continued crying for several minutes - leaving the massed ranks of the microblogging site amused and bemused in equal measure.
And his name was tweeting within minutes of the clip being screened, with users quick to poke fun at the model's response.
'I want Rylan to win just because his reaction would be priceless,' said one tweeter, while another added, 'Just ate so much, but then laughed so hard at Rylan's reaction to getting through I definitely burned it all off.'
Another user joked, 'I'm guessing we all look like Rylan when we remember its monday tomorrow,' while someone else admitted, 'It's funny because I actually cry like Rylan.'
But not everybody was amused, with many criticising Nicole's decision to put Rylan through to the live shows over such other contestants as Jake Quickenden and Nathan Fagan-Gayle.
'It's a joke Rylan went through, meant to be a singing competition' said one angry viewer. Another stated, They needed another Johnny or Wagner,' while another user said, 'Still confused as to why nicole put Rylan through and not Nathan.'
A fellow tweeter, meanwhile, summed up the thoughts of many when they said, 'They only put Rylan through so there was someone for everyone to hate.'
