Eoghan Quigg is on course to win The X Factor after topping the viewer vote every week, according to a report.
The Daily Star claims that Quigg has been "comfortably" ahead of his rival contestants, including bookies' favourite Diana Vickers, throughout the competition.
"It's not even close. Eoghan's captured the public's imagination this year," an insider told the newspaper. "It's like the George Sampson effect in Britain's Got Talent - an innocent-looking young lad is attracting huge numbers of votes.
"He was singing first last week, normally the worst position, but he still beat everyone. It'll take a miracle for anyone else to win."
A previous 'voting leak' report named Quigg, Vickers and JLS as the frontrunners this year, while axed singer Laura White, Alexandra Burke and Dannii Minogue's 'Over 25s' were said to be trailing behind.
