The former Liberty X singer was the first of four finalists announced on tonight’s live show, following a public vote.
He told presenter Emma Willis: “I can’t believe it, I didn’t think it was going to happen.”
Kevin, 35, who is on Ricky Wilson’s team, sang first in the live show, performing his version of Adele’s Rolling In The Deep.
Judge Ricky said: “It’s a good start. So good you made it impossible for everybody else.”
