In the first round of auditions, Shane found it hard to hear the judges' comments due to the high pitched screams of adoration coming from the girls in the audience! Reflecting on his audition, Shane says "I felt vulnerable putting myself out there to be judged in a public place; it took a lot of courage."

Shane was a gymnast when he was younger but was told he was too tall so he went to dance lessons instead. From the age of 16, Shane trained at Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts.

His first job was a Can-Can soloist at the Moulin Rouge in Paris and a career high for him was performing on a float at the Rio de Janeiro carnival. He said the experience was emotional as there were so many people who were extremely passionate and he felt overwhelmed.

Looking towards the live shows, Shane is worried he is "too tall for hip hop" but hopes the public have a soft spot for an Aussie!
