“It’s not a bad pay check for just a few days of work – and for those who want to launch a pop career, it’s the perfect platform.�

£25,000 for getting to the last twelve? That’s not bad is it? Think of all the ice-creams the MacDonald brothers could buy with that. They could even buy their own ice-cream van and set up outside the studios after next week!

Is that £25,000 per act, or per person? If it was per act, it wouldn’t go very far when shared around ‘The Unconventionals’ would it?
Just be enough for Drew to open an account with ‘Cardigans-r-us’, I should think.

Curious
this money isn’t for normal X Factor contestants, it was for the celebrity X factor show earlier in the year.
