Default Leon\'s mom furious about \'LeonGate\'






Leon Jackson's mum Wendy isn't going to let anyone getting away with having a go at her wee boy. Talking about the phone-line episode on Scottish radio this afternoon, Wendy says, "I think it's just a lot of rubbish because on Saturday night I had a lot of people texting me they couldn't get through on the lines for Leon – they were absolutely jammed. I even had one person tell me they had tried 300 times to get through to Leon on a landline and they couldn't get through – so it's not just the Welsh folk that the lines were jammed, the Scottish ones were as well." But she doens't stop there – and why would you, when you can have a bit of a dig at Rhydian's family, too? "Actually Rhydian's mum came up and cuddled me at the start of the show," says Wendy. "When Leon won, not one member of his family came up to me to congratulate me after the show. I think it's been a fair competition and because Rhydian was the favourite all the way through that's why his family's upset, because he didn't win it."

At least she's not as pathetic as Rhydian's parents.

Sunday: "We aren't commenting on the voting problem."

Monday: "It was fixed."

I dunno why she's furious. It's just Rhydian fans being bitter.

Well it can't be nice for a mother to see her child's victory/achievement be totally undermined by a few sore losers who won't let them have their moment.

And she wasn't even having a dig at Rhydian's family - all she said was that not one member of his family came up to cuddle her like they did before the show. She didn't even add anything to that, she merely decribed what they were like before and after the result.

Why is she getting involved? The victory is unlikely to be overturned so what is she commenting on? Leon won, she should be celebrating.

It's obviously not going to be overturned but she is complaining because Leon's victory is being undermined by these complaints.

And so by your own admission - this means Leons family also have the right to be upset.
