Harry Antoniou ( Greek: Χάρης Αντωνίου; born 9 March 1989) is a Greek Cypriot singer and musician. On 11 February 2011 he won the third season of the Greek version of the television singing competition The X Factor after singing Joe Cocker’s " You Are So Beautiful". He was awarded a two-year contract with Sony Music Greece.
Harry Antoniou (at times Charis "Haris" Antoniou) is the third Cypriot to have won the Greek competition, after Loukas Giorkas won in the first season and Stavros Michalakakos in the second season.
