X Factor Winner

[Markymark]

No, a young female singer with a big singing voice and a dodgy speaking voice!! Adele came out of the Brits academy I believe

X factor is all abouts the ratings. That's where they make the money. Then if Simon spots an act to make a fortube he will. Makes little odds whether they've won or not or whether they're goid or not.

So winning X factor means bugger all and an awful lot end up nowhere.

True but the winner can actually hold a tune quite well

Of a similar ilk, Adele isn't doing too badly for herself

Which reminds me, what ever happens to leona Lewis?

There are other producers other than Simon Cowell no?

In X factor, no.

A trawl of this article reveals most winners get at least one number one single and an album which sells well.

If the money's done right, that will set them up for life, OK, not Sting's gazillions, but well into six figures, if not seven.

Being made the subject of snidey 'has been' comments can't be so bad if you've earned a million or so in a couple of years.

Oh, and One Direction are the biggest band in the world.

In X factor, no.

Not sure what your issue is

Loathe or like her or X Factor...
20 million sales worldwide, the album Spirit went 10 xPlatinum, Bleeding Love was 7 weeks at number one in the UK, also number one in 30 other countries...etc etc. I suspect she's done quite well.
Shame she was pretty mundane with Ben wassisname Sunday night.

The winner Sunday night...wassername...she was really quite good, but then when the likes of Adele sing, you realise there is still a huge gap in talent. Adele was just perfect.

If an X Factor win is worth a million quid can't they just give them the money and leave it at that? Please...?

Shame none of these winners go onto achieve anything isn't it? Maybe Leona will be serving me in McDonald's next week.

I was listening to a rerun of The Kris Kristofferson Story on You Tube whilst the final of X-Factor was on.

I dont mind the show as there is some talent on there compared to other attempts at this kind of thing . When someone very talented ( like Adele ) sings it really does show how crap they are though .
I normally watch it for the songs and then youtube the original artist to hear it properly

Will young has been very successful after winning pop idol. He has kept working, retained credibility and made a few quid.
This girl that just won X factor was 4 years old at the time!

That's what Simon Cowell made from her.

How much has she made I wonder.

Does she write her own material, I'm guessing not. Which means that, despite her success, only one person really earns the big bucks from her winning X factor.
