Singer/songwriter Leroy Bell, who shocked everybody when he revealed his real age, offered the audience a solid rendition of “Lean On Me” by Ben E. King during the “The X-Factor” auditions on Thursday (September 29)- watch video below.

The 59 year-old has an interesting voice, incredible stage presence and energy. Grandpa’s got stamina! I like that. The judges were clearly impressed by his good shape and looks as well as his vocal skills. Leroy easily scored four “yeses” and is heading to X-Factor bootcamp.
