Tulisa Contostavlos's debut solo album is on course to miss out on a Top 10 placing this weekend.

The star's first collection The Female Boss has shifted 7,000 copies during its first two days on sale, despite a high-profile performance on The X Factor on Sunday (December 3).

The album currently sits at number 17 on the midweek rankings, but it is expected to fall out of the Top 20 when the final placings are announced on Sunday (December 10), according to The Sun.

Meanwhile, Contostavlos's new single 'Sight of Me' has landed at number 10 on the midweek chart.

Last week analysts predicted that Contostavlos's performance on The X Factor would make or break the album.

"We're not thinking it will be number one - that's never going to happen," they said. "It won't be Top 5 in a million years. But hopefully it will make the Top 10."

A rather lack lustre performance on X Factor did her no favours then...

[Z]

She's useless as a popstar, but at least she's a good television personality.

[MeMyselfAndI]

Shes so untalented & her songs are all terrible. What did she expect, her voice isn't good enough..

[Black Dagger]

Flop bitch.

[Z]

Young was great, it's a pity none of the rest of her music has been anywhere near as good

[Brother Leon]

She's ****, but I thought her new X Factor fans would at least help her sell more than Dappy who flopped too :laugh:

I actually hope they don't go back as N Dubz, because he will go back to being **** again.


Oh and "Chris, I dunno who will buy the album" lol

[MeMyselfAndI]

Had it been released last year it would have done much better, this year on X Factor she comes across as super miserable

[Munchkins]

Terrible album name... terrible songs why would anyone buy it?

[Brother Leon]

Not all is bad with "urban music"


Skepta flying high on iTunes with a mixtape full of nameless tracks :laugh:

:worship:

[Munchkins]

Lol oh my poor Tulisa


Tulisa Contostavlos has defended the chart position of her latest single.

The X Factor judge's latest track 'Live It Up' reached number 11 on Sunday's (September 16) chart, following the chart-topping success of 'Young' earlier in the year.



"I said I don't know if it will even get into the top ten," she reminded BBC's Newsbeat.

"With that single it was strategic to sell the album. I'm not trying to get a number one with this one."

She added: "I know it's urban. I know that it's probably not going to chart high. I want to show a different side to the album. For me it's a bigger picture."

Contostavlos recently told Digital Spy that her third solo single will be a "Christmassy" ballad that will "stand the test of time".

Well the strategy isn't working :laugh: and omg sight of you will stand the test of time :joker: ?

[MeMyselfAndI]

:laugh3:
Sight of you is such an awful ballad, it's hilar :laugh3:

[arista]

Must be the Porn Tape
that gave her a low position

[Munchkins]

For me, just like with N-Dubz, I don't care about having a number one album, I care about going platinum. I care about the overall sales. What's the point in having a number one but people saying, 'She only sold 60,000 though'? I don't want that. Most people these days kind of drop the one single and then the album but that was one thing I said I would never do," she explained. "I have to put the background work in. I've got to give people a reason to buy it. I want to prove myself this year, more than ever, as a musician and as a solo artist."[4]

Well she isn't going to sell as much as she hopes :L.. she has no chance in hell of getting platinum

[Brother Leon]

Blaming it on the fact it is urban.


Go away lol. It is **** electro pop and club music.

Skeppy's mixtape is 10x more urban yet is doing fine with 1/20 the promotion she has had lol

[MeMyselfAndI]

urban is **** anyways

[Novo]

Very True MM&I bit of a pointless genre

[Marc]

Her performance at the weekend was dreadful :laugh: probably stopped people from wanting to buy it

[Marc]

I'd love her to debut at #34 on the album charts

ha2

[MeMyselfAndI]

Looks like shes gunna sell as well as Dappy... terribly. N Dubz are so over :laugh2:

[King Gizzard]

Can we imprison her and everyone that bought her album?

I so so so so so so so hope Cowell gets rid of her

[Jordan.]

The album chart is a mess at the minute, all albums seem to flop. She didn't help herself with the single choices though.

[Shaun]

Young was great

no

[Saph]

why is she calling herself the female boss? its so cringey :laugh: I'll give the album a listen sometime

[Munchkins]

It really is awful
i listened to the preview of all the tracks and that was bad enough

[Saph]

:joker:

[Me. I Am Salman]

She's useless as a popstar, but at least she's a good television personality.

She's neither

[Munchkins]

She's neither

Agreed!
why can't she just leave eurgh

[Saph]

coz shes da female boss but she aint no chav

[Saph]

apparently anyway

[smeagol]

does the bonus include her bj video. she is as bad at bjs as she is at music. truely awful.

[Scarlett.]

What the hell is the deal with that whole "Female boss" crap? lol

[Me. I Am Salman]

My God there's a song called British Swag

[Me. I Am Salman]

Just finished listening to the album. I'm scared.

[Jordan.]

Metacritic score of 36/100 pmsl

[Doogle]

Wonder if Dermot will congratulate her on her top 30 album on Sunday

[Me. I Am Salman]

36/100 :o

[MeMyselfAndI]

lmao :laugh3:

[Saph]

you can tell she was expecting a #1 album

[MeMyselfAndI]

you can tell she was expecting a #1 album

She was definitely expecting a top 10! :laugh2:
At-least she should have a 'smash' top 30 album!!

[Saph]

no doubt on Sunday night she'll be on twitter saying "I knew all along the album wouldn't sell well, its not a commercial album its a personal message for my true fans". What makes this whole thing even funnier is that the act Tulisa lead to victory last year have outsold her :laugh3:

[Me. I Am Salman]

Something about the album being too 'urban' :rolleyes:

[MeMyselfAndI]

Her album is utter trash, I'll lol so much if she tries to make it out the album isn't commercial. 'Young' & 'Live It Up' are mega commercial, and Sight of You is just such a terrible ballad.

[Saph]

lmao Adele's more urban than tesco value Tulisa

[GypsyGoth]

Sounds like a pretty big flop to me.

[Mrluvaluva]

On offer already...
