After the elimination of Nofo Lameko on week 2 and Stevie Tonks in week 9, Beau was the final act on the boys category who progressed through to the grand final.
Going in to the grand final, Beau is also the only act in series 2 who has never landed in the bottom two. He was initially mentored by Natalia Kills, but was replaced by former Australian judge Natalie Bassingthwaighte after Kills was removed from the show due to a bullying controversy in the first live show.
