Yeah, I know Joey Essex doesn't have 2 million real followers (you can see the bots on the TOWIE lots follower lists)
But Amy's seem to check out - if you check her Instagram you can see her pictures Likes going up from 20 on average to over 30,000 now, which is as high as the likes of Ellie Goulding and Cara Delevingne
It's very significant as far as media work goes because it means anything you're involved with automatically has an audience

They've probably got more sense - it doesn't really matter just so long as you're in long enough to get your publicity ... That's all the show is - you don't really get anything from winning or staying in the extra 2 days ... The most successful X Factor acts rarely made it to the finals
In fact, Amy coming out the same time as Joey seemed to set them up perfectly for marketing themselves as more of a couple - so it couldn't have gone any better for them really
