Had the privilege of singing for – as well as sharing some of my story with – a room full of amazing young people, along with Jarryd Hayne, Tim Mannah and Taga Paa at The Statement.
Talked about what’s brought me to this point, what drives me and what keeps me grounded.
“It’s OK to be who you are! No one will be a better you than you. Comparison is a killer, don’t be crippled by perfectionism…”

I recently had the privilege of mentoring at a couple of JMA Entertainment’s artist bootcamps.
Can’t say how proud I am of these guys. Their commitment to their craft – & hard work – paid off in spades at the final showcase. Insane talent, wowsers. Such an honour to take the little that I know & help mentor them.
That’s a wrap!

Hey guys, what’s up?
So lately I’ve been trying to pick my jaw off the floor, ’cause I just can’t believe all the crazy-amazing artwork people are making for me. Wowsers. I’ve seriously got the most creative fans ever – where you at?! So creative that you inspired me to come up with the BCS Fan Art Competition.
Wanna play? Here’s how:
Step 1
Make some Barry Southgate artwork. You can use screencaps, X-Factor pics, something hand-drawn – whatever gets your creative engines revving!
Step 2
Include the hashtags: #BarrySouthgate #WhereYouAt #BCSFanArtComp
Step 3
Upload your artwork to Instagram and Facebook.
A Top 3 will be picked based on which three designs have the most combined Instagram/Facebook ‘likes’ by midnight, Monday October 30th (Sydney time). They’ll then be contacted to find out their personalized prizes.
Ready. Set. GO!
UPDATE:
ShoutOut to the top 3 BCS Fan Art Comp entries: Amy, Amena & Sophia! Huge thanks to everyone who took the time to enter too – I saw every single pic, love them all!

Thanks Daily Telegraph for the love today, really appreciate it.
You know, the road to my dream’s been pretty rough. It really took a lot for me to put myself out there & audition for The X-Factor.
Growing up in South Auckland, singing Stevie Wonder’s “Lately” at my very first talent show, I could never have imagined performing at a talent show of this magnitude.
Man, so nerve-racking! But all you can do is just step out & give it your best…
