The Collective were a five-member Australian male pop vocal group consisting of members Trent Bell, Jayden Sierra, Julian De Vizio, Zach Russell and Will Singe. Initially rejected at bootcamp as soloists in Season 4 of The X Factor Australia, they were put together as a group and were mentored by Ronan Keating.

Due to the eliminations of What About Tonight and Fourtunate, The Collective were the only act left in their category. They finished in 3rd place behind runner-up Jason Owen and winner Samantha Jade.

Trivia

• In the quarter-final, Hawke received more public votes than The Collective. This meant that if the result went to deadlock, Hawke would have advanced to the semi-final and The Collective would have been eliminated.
