X-FACTOR

The winner doesn't actually get that cash though as far as I'm aware, it's just how much the company is prepared to stump up to record tracks and promote them.

ye i think your right, if they succed and get famous then they get cash, but i don't know any xfactor person that has?

They will get cash for the first month or so through adverts etc
 
I don't care who win's as it will seem that they will disappear once the show has finished. Their music is far from my taste this year.

Look at Shane Ward for example, where did he go to?

I actually didn't mind him.

will young - clearly a star
girls aloud - doing well enough, im sure you will agree.
lemar - how many awards now?
chico - didnt even win, but got a no1!
kelly clarkson - she went big didnt she?

It's an interesting point made here since the only one amongst the Pop Idol crowd that can be said to have made it is, Will Young: and this is only because he started to write his own stuff. Gareth Gates: Michell Mcmanus: Shane Ward- I do not think so. Personally I believed there was more tallent and ability in that little Ashley guy's fingernail than there is in both Ray and Leona put together. He probably could not afford £80000 worth of vocal coaching either.

Yep, Liberty X made it because they broke the bonds of Fuller/Cowell and co. I think Virgin actually signed them while Hearsay went down the toilet. Bad management sent them to the Brits and they got slaughtered.

Girls Aloud have had decent success but they haven't actually made much money, while the pop stars the rival success has just made them party whores for BMG.

Every year on these shows they do the same tracks, because he had mild success with Robson and Jerome and unchained melody that pap gets pedalled out every year.

Even with westlife, they start struggling out comes a cover. Mandy anyone?

The stupid thing about the whole format for me is there is plenty of talented singers but when the show finishes they never sing live again.

You cant compare the yank one to our pap. Chico made next to nothing from that no1, whats he done since?

Lemar was on fame academy he came third or 4th.
Girls aloud lost 26k this year. Sure they have had a good old party but they will end up with as much as sclub7.
Will Young isn't exactly on fire these days but granted he did well. But then he wants nothing to do with cowell and distanced himself. Cowell didnt want him to do his own stuff and had enough cover album planned.
