G4 has been named the most financially successful finalist of X-Factor since the programme began. Research reveals how the classical quartet has earned almost double the amount of Shayne Ward, winner in the same series, according to leading independent personal finance website Fool.co.uk.

With Leon crowned X-Factor winner this weekend, Fool.co.uk has analysed past participants to see if winners of the show generate the most cash. The research shows that only two of the top five most successful X-Factor contestants were the actual show winners – something that could be music to Rhydian’s ears!

Budding auditionees for next year show might want to keep this in mind, with other X-Factor losers such as Andy Abraham and Journey South outselling the show’s first winner Steve Brookstein by over £1 million.
