Though, Jason Brock might be flamboyant; his exit on the X Factor is not the highlight of the show as it was overshadowed by Cowell's decision to reveal the contestants rankings for the first time.
No one was expecting that it was the audience favorite is 37-year-old road worker Tate Stevens.
The cowboy-hat wearing singer gathers more votes from viewers than any of the other, younger, contestants.
Upon learning the news, he joked: 'Wow, obviously people in America don't get out a lot! Thank you so very much. This is huge.'
However, the other thirty something contestant didn’t seem to be like by fans of the Fox broadcasting show. Jason, 35, was forced to say goodbye that night.
He sang off with fellow contestant CeCe Frey for the final spot in the top 12 of the show.
But the judges have a hard time to decide, so they leave the decision to the TV viewers. Jason was then revealed to have the lowest decision and was sent home.
This is the first time in the history of the show that viewers got to see who were the most, and least popular, acts as their rankings were revealed following the public vote.
The show was started by the British boyband One Direction, who performed new single, Live While We're Young. They were greeted by screaming female fans.
'How hot is One Direction?' asked Khloe Kardashian Odom as she touched both Liam and Zayn.
The preceding night judge Simon Cowell pulled a stunning U-turn when he brought teenager Diamond White back to the competition.
The return of Diamond left 13 finalists instead of the usual 12.
Khloe Kardashian added: 'There was a whole lot of drama on stage last night.'
Britney Spears, who was sporting a shimmery silver top that exposed her midriff and back, then walked onstage with her Teens category - Arin Ray, Beatrice Miller, Diamond White and Carly Rose Sonenclar.
Demi Lovato, in a flowery skirt that displayed her toned legs, then appeared with the acts she has been mentoring - the young adults, CeCe Frey, Jennel Garcia and Paige Thomas.
LA Reid, in a smart suit, then walked on with his over-25s acts - Jason Brock, Tate Stevens and Vino Alan.
And finally Simon Cowell, who was wearing trademark sweater and jeans, turned up with the Groups - Emblem3, Fifth Harmony and Lyric145.
Mario Lopez said: 'We're going to reveal who's made it through to the top 12. They will ALL be back next week. Good luck!'
He added: 'By the way, these results are in no particular order. Safe and through to the top 12 is… "'
The contestant who made it to the top 12 were Arin Ray, Paige Thomas, Diamond White, Vino Alan, Jennel Garcia, Emblem3Carly Rose Sonenclar, Tate Stevens, Beatrice Miller, Lyric145, and Fifth Harmony.
This leaves CeCeFrey, and Jason Brock to face off in a bid for the last guaranteed spot.
The two contestants got two votes each from the judges, which leaves the decision to the audiences.
At the end of the vote, it was revealed that Jason got the lowest vote, so he was sent home packing.
