According to Dean Piper in the Mirror:

Better management for Olly than Simon would have been.

    Ooh good for Olly if this is true... Though I'm going to remain skeptical until its announced officially :).

    Congratulations Olly fans if its true that hes getting signed! Though am I the only one who hates the way these articles insist on making it out as though they are competiting against eachother? First Joe and JEdward and now Joe and Olly :rolleyes:

    Isn't Dean Piper close friends with Dannii Minogue? Maybe true...

    I hope this is true too. :)

    I agree with Tye about the annoying spin that the papers always put on these things though. I've no doubt at all that Joe would be delighted for Olly and I very much doubt that Olly would view it as competition between them, they both seem to be generous spirits and they looked to get on with each other very well.

    Very happy for Olly fans if EPIC signs him and I would also like to read something about Stacey being signed. :)

    They're taking forever this year to sign people up. I can see why Epic might be interested in getting another XF contestant after their success with JLS and maybe they'll hope that Olly also has a strong female fanbase. Don't think he'll be as successful, though.

    Why hopefully not? Danyl was never my cup of Earl Grey but why even bother to hope that he doesn't get a deal? You won't be forced to buy anything he produces. :confused:

    Great news .
    The acts were all very different and I would be happy for any of them to be signed and for their fans wether I liked them or not.

    He has an X Factor contract to finish before he talks to any label same as Danyl.

    Any news regarding Stacey? :)

    I did hear rumours that Polydor(?) were interested in her but don't know how truthful that is?

    JLS had a deal with Epic by now and Jedward have a record deal.

    If you sign with Sony you can do it any time you like. If you sign with anyone else you have to wait until after the tour.

    X Factor contracts are usually tied to the main Sony Music label they didnt sign with Epic (off shoot of Sony) until after the tour.

    Yey if this is true! I was happy when Simon didn't sign him, I want someone to sign him who gets him, and hopefully Epic do!
