There's too much randomness involved, so I voted for many of them...

I voted for the Girls, Rough Copy, the Sams (yes, both), and Nick.

Tamera - with the right material she could sell a lot of records rather like a UK version of Rhianna.

Seriously, she is young, has a good voice and she is very pretty. She does need to work on her likability though. People are jumping on her for lying about a police incident but she is only 16 and Cheryl Cole did worse.

Rough Copy is the only act I can see having a shred of success in the 'real world'.

None of them. Last year's winner is also going to bomb.

The most marketable are Luke (acoustic rock market), Tamera (pop/r&b mainstream market) and Rough Copy fill the boots of JLS.

Rough Copy as the new JLS
Kingsland Road on a more Union J level
Sam Bailey could, if she's given the right stuff


Possibly: Tamera, Nicholas, Sam C = That may just be show hype though....remember how Lara White was going to be the next big thing....yeah.

To be complete the poll should have another choice "None of the above". I suspect that this would get the most votes.

Having said that it's always possible that one or two acts will have some sort of commercial success, but I can't as yet see any of them doing well for very long.

No sure bets this year, but acts I see having a chance are: Tamera, Abi, Rough Copy, Kingsland Road.

Personally, I wouldn't buy any of their music though. Either not my style or not quite good enough.

Tamera. She fits the mold needed for a Roc Nation artist but I doubt Syco will let them have her, they'll want her for themselves.

They're right though, she was hyped up to become a big artist and unfortunately has had no major label backing or marketing - she's done AMAZINGLY well though off her own back, and that girl has got determination! So it's not taking anything away from her, she's just not as 'big' as people thought she would be.

I feel like Tamera could do well, she's my favourite by far but it depends how Syco would deal with her. They'd have to make sure her debut was with a shed load of good producers and writers.

Same goes for Sam, she's INCREDIBLE, but I worry that if she won - they'd make her do a cheap covers album because of her age It'd be interesting to see if they took a different approach though and tried to give her a bit of a crossover appeal like Celine Dion is doing by working with people like Sia and Ne-Yo, but still keeping that core "older audience" sound with a bit of a mainstream pop twist.

Tamera will be this years success story

Abi will probably have small success with an independent label, Sam Bailey will go down the Niki Evans route into the West End (they look and sound the same and even do the same songs) and Rough Copy will probably manage to work themselves a small career too.

I can't really see many of the others doing much.

Tamera is a ready made popstar as far as I'm concerned. She's good to go.
And Rough Copy will fill the JLS void.
Nicholas, I am unsure about.

And that's it, Sam B won't sell, Abi Alton is the new Janet Devlin (who was just Ellie Goulding but Irish) and I can't see any of the boys making it big.

Well the majority of people who aren't necessarily hardcore fans of Janet would not have known that.
