Thought it was quite surprising as he only recently released material like 'Diamonds', he must have been dropped quickly and pushed on the X Factor

I also would have thought Tulisa would've known him?!?

CONTROVERSY ALERT!

What do people think????

I was shocked when I heard he was auditioning but even more shocked that he isn't signed! No wonder his songs don't last long in the charts.

It's taking him a while to realise he hasn't huge potential to take off in the Industry. He has songs on the music channels years ago that weren't exactly hits, then he was on Big Brother: Celebrity Hijack (He didn't come across as likeable, but quite big headed, to me), then he relaunched, won a MOBO (in fairness, well done!) and he barely made a ripple in the interesting people category tonight.

I don't watch x factor but I have downloaded a couple of songs I am surprised to hear he has turned up there!

But according to his facebook fan page it seems x factor has been mentioned .... oh well


EDIT: I stumbled across this by accident but thought whilst at it research a bit into it


also does this make it look like x factor are desperate for talent ... rather find "unknowns" now aiming for "known" people now (they must look at youtube more and ask contestants to "tag" along)

apparently he was never signed in the first place, so there you go. He was allowed to audition for the X Factor, just found it weird that they didn't make his story bigger by showing how Tulisa knew him...

I'm surprised to hear about this.

I don't think he really needs the show. I know he's not the biggest pop star, but he's done incredibly well now that I found out he never even had a record deal. I've heard a few of his songs on the radio before, and he's very well-known with my age group.

Has he gotten through to further rounds or what?

dunno but i'm surprised the papers don't seem to have picked up on it either, they're usually hot on this type of controversy...

theres no denying he has quite a good voice though

Of course they are hiding a fact like that. The producers want the public to believe you can get famous just for singing into a hairbrush in your bedroom while being a humble "everyman"...they probably work overtime to try and prevent connections like this guy and Tuslia from being obvious.
