After last year became its biggest season yet, it should come as no surprise all four judges are returning to The X Factor this year.

There was much speculation *Ronan Keating *wouldn't

return to the hit Seven reality search which has discovered stars such as *Perth *'s *Samantha Jade *and *Johnny Ruffo *, *Dami Im *and *Reece Mastin *.

But it appears Keating, along with * Redfoo *, *Natalie Bassingthwaighte *and *Dannii Minogue, *will all be back behind the desk when live auditions kick off in Melbourne next week, where *Perth * teenager *Terry Vo *, below, is among the young talent hoping to make it through to the live shows.

The biomedical science student at the *University of WA *, who inspired Australia after a horrific accident in 2005 in which he lost both hands and a foot when a basketball backboard gave way, said he was most nervous about singing in front of Redfoo.

Local fans of Vo have created a fan club on Facebook supporting him.
