Matt Linnen and Kevin Davy White have made a "pact" one of them has to make it to the final of 'The X Factor'.
The 28-year-old singer and the budding French artist - who are both in Nicole Scherzinger's Over's category - have both agreed "at least" one of them has make it through to the big finale on December 2, although they "don't care" who it is.
Speaking about their agreement to The Sun Online, Matt said: "We've made a pact that at least one of us has to get to that final and we don't care which one it is. Obviously I want to be there but equally I'd love Kevin to be there ... well I'd give myself a bit extra" .
Although Matt is desperate to make it to the end, and even be crowned champion of this year's series, he is "not sure" whether he will get that far.
He added: "It'd be great to be there together but I'm not sure that's going to happen."
Matt has admitted he has struck up a great rapport with the 29-year-old singer, songwriter and guitarist on the show, and despite competing against one another, they are in fact "best buds".
He said: "[Kevin] is probably my best bud in the house and on the show.
"Sometimes you just click with certain people in life. I think we're similar in terms of musicians we want to be and musicians we are.
"I don't think there's anyone out there who wouldn't like Kevin. He hasn't got a bad bone in his body and he's such a nice bloke."
But Matt is not the only one who is a fan of Kevin, as the contestant has admitted his children are also huge Kevin supporters.
Matt explained: "When I speak to them, they're like 'Is Kevin there? Is Kevin there?' He's been speaking to them loads and stuff.
"Initially, I didn't want to get my kids involved with the whole 'X Factor' thing but they've been getting behind it and they really want to get involved."
