It's not surprising, they have their looks to make up for their completely sub par and generic songs.

I wouldn't bet on it, Leona has a much wider target audience then JLS' army of teenage girls. Plus ITV will be whoring her ads all week as well as the X Factor. Leona's gonna sell more simply because her target audience is wider as is her worldwide fanbase.

I think in the long run Alexandra will be a lot more succesful. She's going to be huge in America soon

I hope you are right.
I was talking to my friend from America.
He had heard lexandra's Bad Boys and said it mightn't do well because they don't like it when black artists sing popier songs.
I hope he's wrong though.

The female audience is a powerful retail group, The most successful film of all time was Titanic which was aimed at a female audience, If we look at films, female based films generally always do extremely well. The female audience is what's made Nintendo such a force to be reckoned with again.

JLS' success is purely down to their looks. The first thing the girls I know that like them comment on first is their looks.

I think they are all really ugly.
Apart from the main guy with the cheekbones.
The rest are mingers.

Exactly. At least Alexandra sells for her voice and not her body or her looks, But Alexandra will also do better than them in the US IMO

On the front of her album cover she is showing her bra, and spreading her legs open. On the back of her album she has her ass out. She has done topless (covering) photo, almost every performance I have seen her do she wears tiny skirts and has all her legs showing. Yes, she does use her body to try and sell more records.
