Steve was disappointed that the record label would not entertain original songs so rather than do another album of covers Steve requested to leave. He was offered a £12,500 to go away quietly and not make the fall out public but Steve said no to Simon Cowell. Steve has since been subject to much negative PR after trying to speak about his experience.

£12,500?? Simon spends more than that on his breakfast I'm pretty sure.. goes to show how much he really respects the X-factor competitors!
