Udo Mechels (born 10 May 1976) is a Belgian singer. He auditioned for Season 1 of X Factor Belgium and made it all the way to the final as part of the Over 25s category mentored by Kris Wauters.

Due to the eliminations of Véronique Flamand and Helena Fontyn and the withdrawal of Robin Daneels, Mechels was the only act left in his category. He was crowned the winner defeating The Cappaert Sisters from the Groups category mentored by Jean Blaute.
