Vidgen, 14, had over 300,000 YouTube hits from around the world this week after wowing the Australia's Got Talent judges with his powerhouse performance of Whitney Houston's I Have Nothing.
Immediately, everyone is talking about how Vidgen could be the next Bieber. He has a similar background as the Canadian superstar, growing up with music from a young age.
"I don't mind it at all," he said of the comparisons. "If I was successful as him, that would be pretty amazing."
Vidgen, who goes to school in Sydney, said he jumped at a chance to get a record deal now, despite his age.
He is the favourite to win Australia's Got Talent, which was a ratings hit for Channel 7 this week.
