She is in a very good place. She has essentially got what all other X Factor acts haven't got, a clean slate. I've not seen any other act manage this, she has worked hard for this.
It has taken well over a year, but to be honest, if we consider what happened back in June 2012 with HOH, miracles have been worked for Alex. She's got a team that believes in her, new management and a brand new sound.
I just hope it pays off. Of all the X Factor winners, Alex had the most potential imo, but she wasn't handed out the opportunities that other winners got. She had to work for a lot of it, and Beyoncé also did her quite a few favours as well. I don't think Simon ever really knew what to do with Alex, so I'm glad she's totally free from his brand now.
