Leon wins hands down when it comes to looks and career span.I dont agree with you there,imo Rhydian is wayyy better looking but i reliase that the majority of teenage girls will see Leon as the 'fit' one from x factor so im not going to argue with you there.However as for Leons career span i think he could well have been dropped by his record lable this time next year,he so forgettable and predictable and old,he brings nothing new to the table and imo his voice isnt all that an xfactor winners should be so i cant see him sticking around for long.Someone like Rhydian will be able to go on for years and years in the public eye as there will always be new opportunities for him and his fans will be of a much broader age range,one the x factor buzz has died down most of leons fans will be teenage girls who will soon get bored.
