Default Leon Jackson dropped by Sony
According to The Sun website Leon has been dropped by Sony following dissappointing sales of his album.

Can't say I'm surprised but good luck to him in the future.

He should have won. He deserved to have won. Leon is a great talent, but Simon just didn't want him. Now he's got Rhydian he's happy and doesn't care bout Leon.

He never should've won, he Sucks, His music sucks. As for Rhydian he's so talented and has an enchanting voice. Rhyd should have won.

The real winner of Series 4 was Niki, the only reason she didn't win was because you had silly young girls voting for Leon and kids and 'happy families' voting for Same Difference which knocked her out on the semi final

I don't mind Rhydian as he had real talent and deserved to be in the final.

I hated Leon, but Niki was **** with a capital S. Have you listened to her 'one moment in time'

Hope should have won that year, they had the whole package. I'm glad Pheobe has moved on though and is in a new Girlgroup

Which version? The one she sang before the results or the one she sang when she got voted out?

The first version is a bit wobbly, and she was playing safe and not hitting high notes. But have a look at the second time round after the results, it's fantastic . . .

That was awful, like seriously. Have you heard the original?

Her voice is WAY to small for songs like that
