x factor

His run on the show didn't last long.

In late December, 'X Factor' winner Tate Stevens announced that he would be moving his family to Nashville to work on his country music career. It looks like Stevens has arrived in Music City and is already working hard, according to a photo that he shared this week.

Country songbird LeAnn Rimes is reportedly back in the running as a possible judge on  the reality competition 'The X Factor.'

In case you haven't heard the news, country music hopeful Tate Stevens took home the winning prize on the latest season of 'X Factor.' Not wanting to rest on his laurels, Stevens is heading to Nashville to try to break into the country music scene.

Congrats to future country superstar Tate Stevens. He was announced as the winner of Season 2 of 'X Factor' during Thursday's (Dec. 20) season finale, capping off a week of reality singing competition shows that were dominated by country wins. Remember, Blake Shelton and his pop-country protege Cassadee Pope notched the Season 3 win on 'The Voice.'

Everyone said the right things after LeAnn Rimes and 'X Factor' contestant Carly Rose Sonenclar finished singing the country superstar's 1997 hit 'How Do I Live.' But it was clear during the duet that there was concern for what was happening on stage. The day following, Rimes is being called "unstable," "out of it" and worse by internet news and tabloid sites.

Country favorite Tate Stevens, who regularly placed atop the fan-voted leaderboard in Season 2 of 'X Factor,' will move on to the finals as one of the Top 3 contestants.

Country hopeful Tate Stevens fell from grace a little on 'X Factor' last week, dropping from the top slot on the leaderboard after occupying it for multiple weeks. He's out to recapture that crown, so he decided to change things up a little and do an upbeat song on Wednesday's (Nov. 28) episode -- something we haven't really seen from him in past weeks. He tackled Keith Urban's 'Somebody Like You'

On tonight's (Nov. 15) episode of 'X Factor,' Taylor Swift performed 'State of Grace,' the song that kicks off her mega-seller, 'Red.' Wearing a black fedora, white button-down, black flood pants and glittery shoes, Swift made the menswear trend look good.

On tonight's diva episode of 'X Factor,' country singer Tate Stevens served up a terrific version of Shania Twain's 'From This Moment On.' Stevens was atop the leaderboard in fan votes last week, so the country genre is well-represented on this particular reality series. The fact that Stevens chose to sing a country diva's song for this themed episode was also a nice touch and kept country deeply

Taylor Swift's TV takeover isn’t over by any means. While the superstar was everywhere on both breakfast and late night when 'Red' was released, there is one outlet that she has yet to conquer. But that will change on Thursday (Nov. 15), when she takes the stage to perform live on the 'X Factor' elimination/results episode on FOX.

Tate Stevens made quite the impression on Wednesday's (Sept. 19) episode of 'X Factor.' The singer, 37, performed Randy Houser's 'Anything Goes' at the Kansas City auditions and was quickly anointed the next country star by the panel of judges.
