He's right she's far more versatile than Leona. Strange because Simon initially claimed she lacked originality.

KKBL 15-12-2008 04:32 PM

Bullshit,Simon wouldnt say that.

How do you know what he'd say behind closed doors? You're bound to defend Leona.

Adamw92 15-12-2008 04:39 PM

Why would he say that?

That's his opinion, although he likes Leona he might have different expectations and opinions on Alexandra.

The Daily Mail are usually a reliable source.

i know,but i doubt Simons friends went to the Daily Mail with direct word for word quotes as to what he said.

Simon lives up Leona's ass. He would never say that about her, especially when he knows how nice of a girl she is and considering she's signed to his label.

It isn't that bad of a comment, but I just can't see him saying it about Leona.

Matt08 15-12-2008 04:44 PM

I hope Alexandra does have bigger success than Leona, she's more versatile and has a better voice in my opinion.

30stone 15-12-2008 04:46 PM

Lol i wouldnt think he would say that.

And im not sure she will be. I think leona will be biggest thing to come out of x factor.

Considering she's just broken a record which Leona held before her, she has a very bright future ahead of her. They just need to get her debut album right now.

Artists like her are in big demand in America at the moment, and I expect Simon will make sure she gets there. She'll probably be recording her album there anyway.

GiRTh 15-12-2008 04:51 PM

I dont think she'll have any problems breaking America. I think they'll love her over there. She'll be appearing on Oprah or somethig like that very soon.

EDIT: According to her Wiki page Fiddy cent has expressed an interest in working with her.

Yeh because there was 14million viewers watching x factor.

There has never been that before. It was failry obvious it was going to happen. I Think she will do really really well, but as for better than leona, i don't reckon.

Leona's barely been around 2 years, its awful to say something like thatwhen he's made such a big deal about making her the star she is, now he's ust gonna push her aside for Alexandra, its just not right, i want to support Alexandra but i won't if she's gonna take all Leona has

I agree i also think leona naturally has more talent and pushing her aside will make her end up leaving his record label.

gavinh2008 15-12-2008 05:25 PM

Well I hope she does, I want someone who will release more happy songs then sad song after sad song after sad song then ooh a happy song, then oh a sad song

Alex is more versatile and has amazing potential to be just as great

Leona doesnt need Simon anymore, she'd do fine without him, Simon is only thinking about the next big thing, and that is Alexandra

XxShortyxX 15-12-2008 06:39 PM

I think Alex and Leona will be be around in like 5 years time, still selling Albums/singles ect, they have the voice, you could give them anything and they would be able to sing it, these two both have so much talent, two of the best singers out there.

KawaiiSakura1 15-12-2008 06:48 PM

Alexandra does don't deserve to be bigger then leona because Alex copyed leona, and leona is alot better then her .

How did Alex copy Leona?
That's like saying Leona copied Mariah Carey, or Leon Jackson copied Michael Buble.

Barely anyone's unique anymore, definitely no-one off the x-factor anyway.

Just for winning The X Factor? That's not copying

Then I guess Leona copied off Steve and Shayne too?
