NOTW reports: "WONDER boy Joe McElderry has set his sights high after his expected X Factor triumph tonight - he wants to be the next Michael Jackson."

"I absolutely love Michael Jackson," he said. "I like watching people who are wild on stage and just dance all over. That's how I want to be."

I would have kept that to myself if I was him.

Who's going to tell him......?

Not me, will you tell him please?

I can see Joe playing Joseph and wearing his technicolour dreamcoat next christmas..

Yeah total own goal saying something like that. Joe is simply NOT pop. Let alone think he can come close to MJ lol

he wont last more than a year

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.... *intake of breath* ....hahahahahahahahahahaha!

Ahem, that is all...

I agree. He will end up in the west end and have a succesful career there imho. He is not meant for the pop charts.

That's the thing, I think Joe would do amazingly on the west end, and well done to him if he goes down that route.

This is a music contest to be a musican with albums and tours and so on... Olly is more suited to that side of entertainment.

Olly is thou..I can hear him on the radio..

Joe won't even be the King of his own house.

Whatever he goes on to do, his life is going to be different now. He won't be 'ordinary Joe' now. He might have one hit, but it will be one more hit than he would otherwise have had.

He's the king of the castle instead..

There isn't going to be another KOP (imo) Sorry Joe
