Joe McEldery dropped
Mentored by Cheryl Cole, Joe fast became a viewers' favourite before going on to win in December 2009.
Now the performing arts student has been told his record deal with the label, a division of Sony BMG, is not being renewed. Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...#ixzz1JaAN6fWk |

Not surprised, but I think its wrong since hes won the show and they drop him immediately after a flopping debut, contract should be extended to 2 years, if the debut flops they get another shot to make it with a follow-up album.
Id be seriously pissed off after all that effort, but it was obv it would happen.

This does not surprise me. I always said he was too similar to Leon Jackson and look what happened to him

Not surprised and it didnt help him that Olly had a very successful year.

Shows the winner doesn't always come off best in X Factor. It's sad for Joe, he has a really great voice but he needed to be groomed far better than he was.
It's maybe time to get away from releasing a single chosen by Simon etc,then doing a debut album made up of mainly the songs they sang on X Factor, Then long pauses before releasing a follow up single too.plus the album comes a fair time after winning as well. Too many constraints, I hope Joe does well still but really if they push to have winners the X Factor needs to do a lot more with the acts that win and not assume all will be well instantly. Far better not to have a top hit right off but build up to real success rather than be constantly compared and have expectations to continue with the initial success gained form that winners single. Cheryl has failed Joe bigtime and now he looks a failure when really he has likely only done what he was told to and is paying the price for others old hat ideas and their failures.

Olly had more personality and a more interesting sound, the way in which Joe came out (denying it before coming out), bland singles, invisibilty (where was the promotion?) and Beiber basically becoming a phenomenon all helped to crush his career.

he's not like Leon Jackson at all. He's upbeat, cheery and obviously loves being on stage and performing. Leon always looked like he was about to piss his pants.
which is why Ive always thought Joe would be more suited to west end musicals. I think he could do much better there than in the fickle world of the charts. Ive never thought he was hugely ambitious for fame and just wants to get up and sing. and, yeah, him being dropped is no surprise. Although it doesn't make XF or Simon Cowell look very honourable or supportive of its winners. Very cold and ruthless considering they brought in huge money from voters right up to the very end. More than the others. They should be allowed at least 2 albums before being dumped. and Joe is a really nice guy so I wish him luck.

This. Poor Joe. Simon and Chezza are more concerned about arse licking each other than concentrating on the "winning" act. I am sure Joe will pull through!  Lucie Jones is in the West End. I really hope she eventually makes an album though!

Joe was the right winner. But a TV show and the real world of selling merchandise are 2 very different worlds. Many voters will not buy your music and many non voters may well buy your music.

Been telling you all for 2 years that Olly would sell more than double that Joe did and have a longer career
More proof that I am always right

I wonder what Joe's reaction is and what he'll do next...

Olly may have gone down the same route had he won and then with Joe able to do his own thing the roles may have reversed. The fault lies in a big part with the contractual demands and constraints placed on the winner by Simon and co. |

Charisma vaccum. Screw him. He is boring as sin and never registered a blip on anything but gaydar.
Survival of the fittest. Some people just don't make it because their just not that good.
