Thursday's XFactor had celebrity judges to accompany the regular judges on the show. Oddly the only person without a celebrity judge was Simon Cowell. Mariah Carey was scheduled to be his celeb scowler but her plane was delayed due to a hurricane. LA Reid had Rihanna, Rhi Rhi, sitting on the couch at his Hampton digs. The young, too hip for school, Brian Bradley, aka, The Astronomical Kid, aka Astro (for short) blasted the scene off with his special rendition of GrandMaster Flash's "The Message". Brian changed up "The Message" to be modern days take on bullies at school. He brought the track home with a reliability that will ring true on the streets to young kids and push lots of greenbacks around. Brian didn't seem nervous and looked totally casual when he stepped in front of Rhi Rhi to perform. LA had his signature head bob action while Rhi Rhi let out a smile or two. At end Astro thanked them and they thanked him. The judges seemed blown away. Rhi Rhi couldn't stop smiling and saying how cute she thought Brian was. Later Rhi Rhi said he reminds her of a young J Cole.
