Gareth Gates plots comeback with documentary

Gareth Gates is planning to relaunch his music career with the help of an ITV documentary.

Camera crews have been following the chart-topping Pop Idol star in recent months as he works on new material and seeks a record deal.

An spokesperson for ITV1 said the hour-long programme will "showcase some of Gareth's new music as he prepares to re-launch back into the spotlight to do what he loves most".

22-year-old Gates was released from his contract with Sony BMG after his second album Go Your Own Way failed to reach the Top 10. This followed a tabloid expose of his affair with glamour model Jordan, despite Gates' initial denials. With his innocent image shattered, his predominantly young female fanbase deserted him.

The ITV1 spokesman added: "This prime-time footage will show the impacts and consequences that fame thrusts upon artists hoping to survive successfully within the pressures of the music industry."

Is it me or does anyone else THINK that this will be a WASTE of tv time i mean Lisa Scott Lee did the same thing with MTV with her trying to get her carrer break but her single only MANAGED to make No.15. I think Gareth is just wasting time he will just flop AGAIN.... BUT if he DID manage to get a TOP 10 then good but i personaly think the music industry these days is JUST so hard
