[LukeB]

Luke Friend has become the latest X Factor star to be dropped by his record label.


The singer came in third place on the show back in 2013 and was signed up by Sony label RCA Records shortly after.

His debut single however was seemingly forever delayed and EVENTUALLY got released in March of this year, placing at just Number 40 in the charts.

According to The Sun newspaper, while Luke is technically still signed for the time being there won't be any more music.

"Sadly it is now just a case of waiting until his contract ends," a source told the tabloid.

Still, Luke lasted longer than winner of his year Sam Baily did as she was previously dropped by Simon Cowell.

But maybe he should have auditioned for The Voice UK after all.

It does seem that acts from The X Factor only ever go one of two ways; at the same time that Sam and Luke are back to square one, others are continuing to enjoy huge success.

In the charts this week X Factor acts dominate the top three with One Direction, Little Mix and Ella Henderson all scoring hits.
