Diana Vickers - constantly compared to the singing style of Janet Devlin also finished 5th in 2008. She's doing ok, and more importantly is independent from Syco and is not given songs to sing. She writes them.

Nobody expects Michael Buble to sing rock or Queen songs, yet his style has made him the sort of superstar that Cowell would love to get his hands on.

Janet will do well. Nobody will finance Alexandra's 2nd CD because they're not that interested in her. She's just a TV personality now. If Misha makes an album, it won't be as successful as Alexandra's because the show was at it's peak in 2008, and Misha hasn't got the personality to fall back on for TV work.

Olly isn't a great pop star, but the X Factor is producing some very good, young TV talent. Alesha Dixon another example. Olly is very good with Caroline on the Xtra Factor though.
