Just an aside , Ray Quinn went on to be a big theatre star . Alexander Burke the same and just going into acting as well now . Diana Vickers took the same path in the west end . Lots carried on singing and acting , writing big songs for big artists. I never got the snobby attititude to the show , it made simon millions and quite a few ordinary people millionares a few times over and a life they never dreamed of, it was a very successful show
There was ella henderson who had a very good career , wrote some really banging songs for herself and other artists , i think she made it big in yankland , she was voted out early which was a real scandal at the time , the public got that wrong
Could go on for some time on this , lol
And lets not forget rylan ! He does very well for himself
