Singer and actor Shayne Ward rocketed to fame by winning the U.K. talent competition The X Factor in 2005. That same year, his debut single, "That's My Goal," went to number one in the U.K. in advance of his first album, 2006's chart-topping Shayne Ward. With a smooth, earnest delivery on adult pop songs that favor romance, he released three more Top 20 albums before becoming even better known for his portrayal of Aidan Connor on famed television drama Coronation Street, where he stayed from 2015 to 2018.
