Who it's gonna be for X Factor New Zealand as Kiwi fans await for the Grand Final Decider on Monday night, July 22, 2013 at 7:30 pm?

As for the three X Factor finalists, Benny Tipene from Palmerston North, Jackie Thomas from Greymouth and Whenua Patuwai from Cristchurch, they were already happy for what they have achieved and will be happy for whoever gets to win. After all, they were already winners just by reaching this far into the contest.

X Factor NZ judges, Melanie Blatt former All Saint, New Zealand-born British pop star Daniel Bedingfield, Australian Idol winner Stan Walker and Kiwi singer song-writer Ruby Frost will definitely have a hard time choosing if ever the need arises.

During X Factor's NZ live show finale, judges Stan and Melanie already engaged in a friendly banter over "who deserves it the most."

After Jackie's performance, Judge Daniel went about telling her that the "big, bad, world of the music business" was something she will be dealing soon.

Judge Melanie thought that Benny reflected his international star quality with his performance and judge Ruby said he made the song sound so sincere.

But it was Whenua who charmed all three judges as Judge Paul told him, "I'm so proud of you bro!" Judge Ruby was deeply touched by his performance and judge Melanie praised how he dedicated his performance to the audience.

However, Hollie Smith, who collaborated for Whenua for Bathe in the River last week tweeted, "How is this competition? Benny for the win."

Whoever gets to win will sign a recording contract with Sony Music and will be launched in total stardom.

X Factor series launched careers for Leona Lewis, One Direction and Olly Murs.

According to a report from Voxy.co.nz, X Factor NZ became the most talked about show in TV3's history, with record levels of audience engagement for a New Zealand television show and that was even prior to the X Factor's weekend showdown. Who could ever forget the auditions of Mitchell Wahl and his chickens and Ashley Tonga's acquiring over a million YouTube views?

According to the report, X Factor NZ had stormed the social media that it became the most socializsed television show in New Zealand.

To date, X Factor NZ Facebook page acquired 112,000 fans, 70,000 followers actively talking about the show and individual Facebook statutes went as high as 300,000.

Each and every episode was trending on Twitter in New Zealand with #xfactornz as hashtag.

TV3.co.nz was able to obtain 6.3 million page impressions, with video on demand content hugely popular.

MediaWorks TV Chief Executive Paul Maher said, "The X Factor has rated incredibly well for TV3, with New Zealanders engaging with our brand more than ever before. The show has lived not just on television, but on our radio brands, social media platforms and we sites, and its success across the board shows the power of MediaWork's broader assets."

"That's the kind of 'lean forward' engagement that creates value for our brands, viewers and partners."
