Leon Jackson dropped by Sony

[podge2007]

According to The Sun website Leon has been dropped by Sony following dissappointing sales of his album.

Can't say I'm surprised but good luck to him in the future.

Agreed!

[Arneldo]

He should have won. He deserved to have won. Leon is a great talent, but Simon just didn't want him. Now he's got Rhydian he's happy and doesn't care bout Leon.

His album sucks, period.

[Ruth*Star]

He never should've won, he Sucks, His music sucks. As for Rhydian he's so talented and has an enchanting voice. Rhyd should have won.

[Mrluvaluva]

The real winner of Series 4 was Niki, the only reason she didn't win was because you had silly young girls voting for Leon and kids and 'happy families' voting for Same Difference which knocked her out on the semi final :mad:

I don't mind Rhydian as he had real talent and deserved to be in the final.

I hated Leon, but Niki was **** with a capital S. Have you listened to her 'one moment in time' :joker:

[Lewis.]

Hope should have won that year, they had the whole package. I'm glad Pheobe has moved on though and is in a new Girlgroup

[Ramsay]

Good cus hes shite

[KillER]

xDDD not surprised. where did he disappear to? :O i always thought he was average at the very most. nice enough guy, but being nice doesnt make your singing any less sh!t.

Which version? The one she sang before the results or the one she sang when she got voted out?

The first version is a bit wobbly, and she was playing safe and not hitting high notes. But have a look at the second time round after the results, it's fantastic . . .

That was awful, like seriously. Have you heard the original?

Her voice is WAY to small for songs like that :joker:

Yes I have heard the original, but the whole idea is to find a new singer not one who is a copycat of another.

So. who was your favourite of XF4? I'd love to know :whistle:

[Benjamin]

Oh dear, that is a shame...

I'm not saying she should have tried to sound like the original, but she just doesn't have a strong enough voice for those songs; even the Kelly Clarkson one she done was awful :joker:

My favorite was Rhydian, but that series was a flop.

[Z]

Poor guy. I didn't really rate him, I can't believe he even got to the final, let alone win it, he should have finished 6th in my opinion. That whole series was a bit messed up; Hope were my runaway favourites of that series, but in all honesty they didn't deserve to finish 5th. On the other hand, I don't think Same Difference and Leon deserved to finish ahead of them. The final should have been Rhydian, Niki and Beverley, they were all fantastic singers.

[HalfwitFTW]

Aw I love Leon. I voted for him to win too :(

wish him luck for the future

[Marc]

LOL shouldn't be so rubbish.. would never have happened to Rhydian

[Tigglet]

He should'nt have won! He just had a better sob story than Rhydian :bored:

[Adamw92]

I'm not suprised he was dropped, along with Steve Brookestein he is the worst winner of X Factor ever

[donnatomasson]

With his third single 'Creative' reached a lowly position of 94 in the charts and Jackson was dropped by Sony BMG.

The Michael Buble-soundalike is now reported to have moved in a new direction and working with writers who have collaborated with Paolo Nutini and James Morrison. As yet though, there is no news in regards to Jackson releasing any new material.

I found out this interesting X Factor Betting Blog (http://betting.betfair.com/specials/xfactor/6-x-factor-stars-who-faded-into-obscurity-010910.html) featuring the previous winners who faded into obscurity...:xyxwave:
