I don't think that tells us anything. You've got to bear in mind how many X Factor viewers actually use Myspace, who in particular would add X Factor contestants etc. - I wouldn't say it's a huge reflection of fanbases as a whole. Having said that, Leon does seem to have a pretty good fanbase... what's more, those who are fans of him are pretty loyal ones.

To be honest, I do think he picks up a lot of votes simply through his looks and his cute appeal, not to mention picking up more votes from Scottish viewers. However, I do think he has a pretty decent voice. His main problem is that he does come across as quite afraid and shaky on stage, which despite his efforts still come across pretty strongly.

I think he has a personality, but the actual charisma and vibe of being a star isn't there, sadly. I'm sure many XF hopefuls who didn't get through to the live shows would have had the complete package - that is, the X Factor, which Leon unfortunately doesn't seem to have yet. I say 'yet' because it is possible for him to work on it, but I do feel it's something that comes from within and with a bit more confidence.
