Jason Brock Gets His Glitter Explosion! - THE X FACTOR USA 2012 // Jason Brock REACTS to Himself!

First Live Shows Performance: X-Factor Finalist Jason Brock Reacts to “Glitter Explosion”

I decided to do another reaction video to my own performance on the X-Factor USA 2012 (Season 2). This is the one where I did that J-Lo (Jennifer Lopez) and Pitbull song. It was my first performance on the live shows.

This is also the show where I got my “glitter explosion” that I had talked about on my initial audition. It wasn’t as noticeable as I’d hoped.

Simon Cowell, Britney Spears, Demi Lovato and even L.A. Reid give me their feedback on my performance (and it wasn’t as great as I’d hoped). 

On the plus side, I get to stand between Khloe Kardashian and Mario Lopez and grab Mario’s butt on national television. lol I also get to run my hand down the body of a HOT Japanese dancer. So it wasn’t all bad.

Why did L.A. Reid choose this song for me? The world may never know. But anyway, I hope you enjoy my reaction.

X-Factor Finalist Explains Why He's not "Famous": Why I’m not Famous – by Jason Brock from the X-Factor

Hey Everyone!

People often leave me comments that I should have gotten a record deal or gotten more famous after the X-Factor. Well, it would have been nice, but unfortunately that’s not how it worked out for me. I’m very grateful for what I got, though, and what I have now (people like you watching my video, for example!).

Anyway, this video will explain my experience with fame and why I’m not famous “anymore.” lol I hope you enjoy it. Have a great day!!

Some Interesting Differences: Japanese Hand Gestures: 10 hand symbols compared to the US

Japanese Hand Gestures – they are often different from the hand signs used in other countries. Since Jason Brock is an American, he made this video to compare hand gestures between the United States and Japan. You can see Japanese hand signals for things like “OK” and “bad” in Japan (among many more). Then, you will see the US version of that gesture. It’s an interesting comparison!
