Yet somehow he walked in the door and EVERYTHING seems different. SC must not be able to believe his luck that Matt came along after the Rage thing, and has actually exercised an element of nouce in stepping away from our boy.
Couple with that the fact that Matt is supremely talented, utterly charming, handsome in a scruffy interesting kind of way, a bit naughty and yet endearingly clueless, what a combination!
One other thought I had - the highbarn stuff. It crossed my mind at the time that it would be a PERFECT opportunity for some serious music biz honchos to see the real Matt, like a showcase or audition, with his right hand man Mr McMillan to complete the picture. I've no idea if this was the case, but it could not have done more to impress anyone who saw it.”
Bingo...u said it all in this post Cardie!
Adorable, talented, supremely charming, edgy, naughty, you forgot a great bit of sexy scuffy hottie -helps u know! the camera loves him

Re Ali: this is major spot on timing...to Ali moving to Highbarn, that "impromptu" gig, where they pulled out 3 seriously impressive performances showcasing Matt's talent perfectly..Ali will be heavily involved..major opportunity grabbing by Matt Cardle sir

I have shown these to everyone who tuts & says Foxy you're JUST following an XFactor winner.."ah no..he's more than that..
much much more..wait & see"
