X Factor, the Belgian version of the British show The X Factor, started screening in late 2005 on VTM. The judges were Kris Wauters, Jean Blaute and Liliane Saint-Pierre; the series was hosted by Koen Wauters. The series is a postcursor to Idool 2003/2004 which features contestants & jury members from both seasons.

The winner of season one was Udo Mechels from Nossegem and the runner up was The Cappaert Sisters (Annelies & Sarah Cappaert) from Tongeren. Contestant Robin Danneels had to quit the show due to being hospitalized for his back pain. Therefore Ivann could return to sing in the contest.
