The fame is obviously going to happen and they should of expected it, they are not forced on stage all of this was choice. They have probably got a contract now but they were not forced to sign it.
This paper makes the x factor sound like a devil and that we as viewers are ripping them apart, we are not... we are watching entertainment, how about all those performers booed off stage, bottles thrown on stage yaddy yadda, maybe that should be talked about more? As I said the X Factor contestants get it easy, the hardest thing to cope with is fame, and they have themselves to blame for that.

You're not really getting it here at all. This isn't just about the contestants; it's what the X Factor says about us and about the people who started it. We're all complicit in creating a show that chews up and spits out human beings for entertainment purposes, with only a few people reaping the monetary rewards. The fact that the producers openly pursue controversy in order to gain more exposure makes the whole thing even more loathsome.
