Paula Abdul Tells 'X-Factor' Contestants To 'Break the Rules'
After last week's first round of eliminations, it's now down to the Top 11 on The X Factor. Wednesday night was "Movie Night". Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul, Nicole Scherzinger and LA Reid chose iconic movies for their contestants to take tracks from and belt out.

The group went up against Stereo Hoggz last week, when the judges voted them off of the show, 3 to 1. Surprisingly, that 1 was none other than Simon Cowell.

But the show-stopping performance of last night came from 28-year-old trash hauler, Chris Rene.

Chris Rene is struggling to raise his two–year-old son after battling drug addiction for the last 10-15 years. Chris claimed he just got out of rehab and has been sober for 70 days before he launched into a performance of his own original song called “Young Homie.”
