Chris Rene is a 28-year-old single dad and garbage collector.

He’s been sober for 70 days, having battled addictions to cocaine and methamphetamine and just gotten out of rehab.

He also might wind up winning “The X Factor.”

Rene blew away the judges with his original song “Young Homie,” leading L.A. Reid to invoke Kanye West and Jay-Z, while Simon Cowell remarked, “My favorite feeling in the world is when I sit in this chair and I meet a star for the first time.”
