Altiyan went AWOL

"Has anyone Seen Altiyan. We have lost him," Ronan Keating asked via Twitter, as an X Factor contestant takes time out.

If it’s true it’s a bit of a worry….

News Limited newspapers today report that X Factor singer Altiyan Childs disappeared from not to be found until 5pm yesterday.

His disappearance caused serious concern for his mentor, Ronan Keating, who took to Twitter to try to locate his charge:

– Has anyone Seen Altiyan. We have lost him.
– He is gone awol. Please keep an eye out for him.
– Seriously He has disappeared.

He turned up about 5pm yesterday.

A producer said the singer had “taken some time out to be by himself and slept in a cave on Sydney’s northern beaches overnight”.

Despite the fact Childs put in a good performance on Sunday night, Reality Television is notorious for putting its subjects under enormous pressure.

Corrected.

  1. Altiyan seems to me to be a very sensitive and highly strung person with a great passion for what he does best – entertain. Unlike a lot of the others this guy is ‘the song’. When that type of person is put under pressure of the world they find it difficult to cope. None the less the urge to share themselves with the world is so great that it overshadows everything else. It’s an irresistible pull. These type of people are very humble and can be reduced to tears by just one kind word. Even if you don’t understand how how this works, please give him the benefit of the doubt. He deserves it for being so brave.

  2. ratings stunt gone saaaaaadddd.
    of all the un-talented people there (about 95% of them) he is the worst.

    i love how Ronan took to his Twitter to announce someone is “seriously disappeared”
    coz ya know, all non-publicity seeking serious news goes from the tweets of Ronan Keating, who spends more time name dropping on that show then mentoring.
    Whoopsie…

  3. why is it that when something a little bit random or unexpected happens then people shout “publicity stunt”… are we that tainted by PR that we no longer recognise that people can still genuinely act a bit randomly or unpredictably?
