Alexandra to Duet with Girls Aloud?

Alexandra Burke has announced plans to perform with X Factor mentor Cheryl Cole's group Girls Aloud.

The 20-year-old described winning the ITV1 talent contest and a £1 million record contract last night as "the best feeling ever", revealing that she was sure runners-up JLS would take the crown.

She said: "I am in disbelief. I keep saying to my friends and family, 'This isn't real'. I cannot believe it's happened, but I am so happy. This is the best feeling ever."

Burke will now appear on the Top Of The Pops Christmas Special alongside acts including Girls Aloud and Take That. She added: "I want to do a duet with Girls Aloud. That will happen, I guarantee it."

A performance of Burke's debut single 'Hallelujah' during last night's final was described as "seriously incredible" by Simon Cowell.

Fearne just said Alex is going to be on the show (Radio 1) and they're playing her song.

MarkWaldorf 14-12-2008 04:56 PM

Tom 14-12-2008 06:22 PM

She said shes taking the next year to release her album so maybe it isn't out in March afterall

Yeah, it would be a travesty if she released a half-hearted album in March. Hopefully Simon will do what he did with Leona and wait until September time until releasing any new material.

MarkWaldorf 14-12-2008 07:29 PM

It's going to be a long wait though. I almost forgot about Leona while she was recording.

Christina 15-12-2008 11:03 PM

I love the video, just saw it today but i still havent heard it on the radio yet lol but anyways i have it on my phone now.

Matt08 17-12-2008 04:36 PM

Just added a proper thread header that Riz made.

MarkWaldorf 24-12-2008 01:24 AM

Bump.

Alex looks set to be number one again this week. She's already sold over 100,000 copies in a day!

Alexandra Burke will not be releasing her debut album until Autumn, reports a UK newspaper.

There were originally plans to bring out an album as soon as the Spring, but this has now changed in order to let Alexandra "polish her skills".

An insider is quoted in The Sun as saying: "[Her label were] planning a quick release - possibly as early as March in time for Mothers' Day, but they have reconsidered and will now go for the autumn - probably November."

"They want to wait to find the right songs and let her polish her skills, like they did with Leona. She can then launch it on a live X Factor show."

And despite Leon Jackson's disappointing sales of debut album 'Right Now', Alexandra's people are more confident that she has enough talent, that a delay in releasing the album will not affect it.

"Leon Jackson's album failed to shift as many copies as they hoped when they waited ten months after his X Factor win before releasing it," the source continued.

"They didn't want to risk the same thing happening but think Alex's talent and appeal is closer to Leona's levels, so they can afford to wait to get it right."
