You need to see Nick Grimshaw miming to Girls Aloud on X Factor

This, ladies and gentleman, is new X Factor judge Nick Grimshaw miming to Girls Aloud’s Sound of the Underground backstage at the Wembley auditions and it is EPIC. 

It’s already one of my favourite things to have ever happened in all 12 series of X Factor and this is only a peek from episode one. I know. I need to cool it.

But there’s so much commitment. So much sass. “Why are you such a pop star?!” you can hear Rita Ora squeal. Yep, that’s fear right there. He could totally steal her pop star crown.

The X Factor starts Saturday at 8:00pm on ITV
