Excelling in streetdance, the youngster first appeared on television screens during one of Lauren's X Factor performances, where he breakdanced beside her whilst she sang Whitney Houston's 'How Will I Know'.

Lewis' performance led to a compliment from reality TV supremo Simon Cowell, who enthused: "Tell your brother 'Britain's Got Talent' is back on soon."

And having applied for this year's programme, Lewis has already emerged as one of the favourites to win the ITV talent show.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "Lewis is a great streetdancer. He didn't need to be asked twice by Simon to audition.

"He wowed the judges with his first routine and is definitely one to watch.

"Lauren's very supportive."

Meanwhile, Simon recently confessed he's taken a new approach to his role as a judge on 'Britain's Got Talent', promising to be more "nosy" with the contestants.

Simon, 55, shared: "I think the public at home feel the same way. Sometimes when you ask these questions you really get to know whether the person is sincere and whether they are serious about this - and so it helps me make a decision.

"Actually, if you like the person before they have performed then they stand a better chance."
