Danyl Johnson, a reading school teacher, has more than a million hits already on YouTube after his audition on the X-Factor on Saturday night.

Johnson, 28,  has been invited to fly to the U.S. to appear on “The Today Show”.

A source close Johnson stated: ‘The Today Show contacted him because they saw his audition and think he’s a real star. They want him on this week – and he thinks it’s an amazing opportunity.’

Simon Cowell was wowed by Danyl Johnson and hailed him as the best audition he had ever seen, after his audition performance of  The Beatles’ With A Little Help From My Friends.

Simon said, “Danyl, I’ve been doing this for eight, nine years, and that was single handedly the best first audition I’ve ever heard”.

“When we see a performance like that, it’s the absolute perfect audition. So exciting to be sitting here on this panel,” added judge Dannii Minogue.

“You’re a natural born performer and I will take you in my category right now,” Cheryl Cole told him.

Despite his success it has been revealed that the bisexual singer was struggling with a family rift, and had not spoken to his father Owen McCubbin for over a year.

But McCubbin was cheering his son on as he watched his performance on television. A tearful McCubbin, a former delivery driver, 51, said he had no idea his son had even auditioned for the show until last week.

Mr McCubbin, who separated from Mr Johnson’s mother Maria Burgess, 48, ten years ago, suffered a nervous breakdown last year.

McCubbin said his breakdown was a  ‘personal family matter’, but added: ‘I had a breakdown and was in hospital, but I’m better now. I really miss Danyl and would really like to see him when he has got time.

‘I was so proud when I saw Danyl on the television. I did shed a tear as he was singing.’

So will Danyl Johnson be the next Susan Boyle?
