I was really impressed with this (http://www.youtube.com/user/JamesMic.../1/pscF9C9EdNM) and also the other 4 videos he's posted up. I think he would have done so well if he hadn't been booted out by Gary in favour of bloody Frankie.

I liked James right up until Week 1 of the lives! He was so crap in the first week, you have to admit. Then again the awful, boring song choice was down to Gary, so..

James was stitched up with that! He posted on Facebook that he didn't want to perform 'Ticket to Ride' at all but Gary insisted.

I'm convinced the purpose was to give Gary an excuse to keep Frankie in for the sake of tabloid coverage for a while.

I agree with you he was stitched up, and I for one was very annoyed, he has a lovely voice, I hope he does well, even in modelling where he could earn very good money, but hope he carries on singing as well.

I thought James was a possible winner! He's going to carry on with his music and I'm glad he's doing the modeling as well. Some of his fans have been urging him to audition for The Voice.

I am so pleased to hear this, get a facebook page going for him, ie back James Michael to enter the Voice.

I thought he had winner written all over him Wandashirk.. was gutted. And even more so when I saw how upset he was, totally disgusting tv to watch that was.

Ouch no thanks. But he's way bettter than Frankie though and by all rights should have got through. Nice one Barlow another notch to add to your ego stick.

so ummm wheres this proof you claim to have?

There's no doubt he's talented but he is boring and irritating to watch. Those faces he kept pulling were a distraction to me and his songs all ended up sounding the same.

Stunning face, angelic voice.

james if you read this - change the colours on your youtube page.

Still think he was the best of the boys this year. Gary definitely made a mistake sending him home.

This is his latest upload: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaaCRwBR_TA

He does pull some funny faces when he sings. He's a hell of a lot better than Marcus though, I'm quite content to leave his cover playing in the background without forgetting it's there.

Agreed, with the right mentoring and songs I think he could have done well. Guess not being friends with a member of Take That meant Frankie got chosen over him.
