Anastacia had some tears and some LOLs at The X Factor auditions

  • June 12, 2012

Tinted Sunglasses Wearer Of The Year 2002 nominee Anastacia was a blub­ber­ing mess at Glasgow's X Factor auditions.

According to The Sun, the breast cancer survivor was reduced to tears by an audi­tionee who dedicated a song to his cancer-stricken nan.

"You made this whole audition very special," she told the chap before going up on stage for a chat with him and his Grandma, which is nice.

Lightening the mood, the 'Yo Trippin'' hitmaker reportedly had a look under a gentleman's kilt later on. "He had nothing on under there! I love Scotland," she declared after the pantsless audi­tionee chal­lenged Anastacia to come up and have a look at his penis.
