Another Kiwi has made waves on X Factor Australia, not only for his singing voice, but his looks too.

Trojahn Tuna, a 23-year-old tattoo artist from Waimana, Bay of Plenty, thrilled judges with his rendition of Mario's Let Me Love You to raucous applause and each judge voted to send him to the next round of "boot camp".

But one judge was particularly onboard - Iggy Azalea could barely contain herself, telling Tuna: "I particularly like R&B sung by people who look like you - you are fine.

"You can just pick me up over your shoulder and walk off with me, Daddy!"

Fellow judge Adam Lambert praised the singer's charismatic performance, saying it was "by far one of the coolest things I've seen since I've been here".
