The Sun/Nathan

Another anti-Nathan story


http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage...th-temper.html


Strange how we never get stories about the other contestants. Also strange that the production team has so many leaks.

I know.........I know.........the press print rubbish but if there is any truth in this one, Nathan should be ashamed of himself.

Maybe there aren't any stories about the other contestants.

If that were true they'd have managed to get rid of him by now

If he did scream at staff...maybe it was the pressure of knowing he's not being treated fairly???
He wouldn't be the first artist to do that-not that it's right.

Maybe something happened before then-we just don't know.

He tweeted today that he knows there are people who don't want him to do well in the comp-he is 23-maybe not thick skinned enough yet?

I just thought it's a very convenient press leak seeing as it's so obvious they don't want him for the role. Maybe I'm just being cynical

Gah!

That man is awful, it was not her fault, why take out your anger on someone who cannot defend themselves or rectify the situation?
I used to get this sort of behaviour when I worked in Top Shop.
So did a lot of my staff.

I was looking for an article where they were picking on Nathan not where he was picking on someone else.

Are there articles about the atrocious behaviour of any of the other remaining contestants or even the previous ones?

This cannot help him at all.

Basically, ALW wants him off the show and judging by the comments below the article, his tactic has worked.

I'm getting sick of the ridiculous press stories that are constantly being 'leaked' about talent show contestants. There's something deeply unpleasant about the Superstar team targetting a particular contestant in order to boost ratings. I hope it backfires spectacularly on them.

Not sure it was a convenient press leak, if I was Working on a reality show and someone treated me like that I would tell my friends and the press.

Who would not?

Not sure Nathan is the victim here in this one, maybe in another story

What do you mean by this?

Is The Sun not one of Britain's largest selling national papers?

Yep, and every page is full of shite, aimed at people who would believe the moon is made of cheese.

As you said in another thread;

"The Sun and The Mail are rubbish papers, unfortunately they sell more than any other National press so that is a lot of people seeing junk "

I think you answer your own question.

Me too. The press has already made up stories that Nathan has a weave and he had to prove that his hair is real and now this.

I think it's disgusting to be honest.

If it's true, why isn't there a picture of the person along with a full name of the person who 'cried'?

And who would cry at someone being a tit about a seat being available? Hmmm.... very suspect...

I think the press, or worse someone on the ALW show, just wants to trash him. And it will probably work too.

Even if his personality does need working on, trashing him like this is still cruel because it will damage his whole career. Poor bloke.

Or it could be true and she didn't want to be named because she knew his fans would make it difficult for her. Who knows what he said, I can see that if he didn't let up it would make her cry. It may not be true, but just because it's in The Sun does not make it instantly false.

If the story turns out to be untrue, given the Press leaks, if Nathan goes, and he were in the corporate world, would he have a case for "construcive dismissal"? or could he seek compensation for bullying? Re the "hair extensions," has he been libelled?

Whether the story is true or false, it shouldn't be in a tabloid newspaper. The fact that is is, strongly suggests an agenda on the part of the Superstar bods/ALW. I suspect that Nathan has been topping the votes and ALW is scared to death of ending up with him as Jesus. The only way he can get rid is if Nathan ends up in the bottom two. Cue a 'Nathan Is An A*se Who Makes Girls Cry!' story leaked to the Sun and published on Monday morning.

ALW used to bang on about how the TV Casting Shows were different to X-Factor because they were about 'nurture, not torture'. Sadly, he's gone down the X-Factor road on this one, and in the process has gone right down in my estimation.

It's ITV's fault. They're trying to appeal to the X-Factor demographic by turning this into trash TV.

'according to a source' most likely complete and utter bull poo! If he had behaved like that, I'm damn sure the production wouldn't put up with it. 'They' are just trying to put people off voting for him by trying to make people think he's an arsehole. Some people will believe anything! He knows the score and I'm sure he wouldn't jeopardise his chances by behaving like that. I hope he wins because I think he's great. Gutted Jeff has already gone (he was my fav).

I would be very dissapointed if it a set up by the production , But equally you have no evidence that it didnt happen .

I wonder if ITV told ALW to put him through and now it's all gone wrong.

I do think it is probably true.

The Sun dont get many things right but with ITV shows they usually do.. They ran alot of stories on Misha B's behaviour in the x factor before the Tulisa comment

There is no credible source for this story, in fact there is no source atall. Also no spokesperson for the show has associated themselves with the story.

Take with a very large pinch of salt.
