X Factor singing sensation, Eoghan Quigg, is rumoured to have been dropped from his label, RMC, and bookies are already betting on who will snap up the young superstar.
Apparently the reason that RMC gave for releasing the young Dungiven man was because of poor sales of his debut album, self entitled ‘Eoghan Quigg’.
Paddy Power has also included a number of the giants in the music business as possible takers of the local X-Factor finalist.
Whether you know it or not, Eoghan Quigg was the most popular X Factor contestant of the 2008 series. The producers confirmed that Eoghan received the most phone votes in 6 of the live shows of the series.

X Factor singer, Eoghan Quigg will see his debut album released this March, just in time for Mother’s Day.
In recent years X Factor albums have been delayed for at least a year after the show ends, which worked well for singers like Leona Lewis who people actually wanted to hear, but acts like Leon Jackson crashed and burned after people lost interest and moved on to the next big TV attraction.

Diana Vickers - X Factor 2008
Former X Factor contestant, Diana Vickers has denied all rumours that she is dating fellow singer, Eoghan Quigg.
Speaking to Heat magazine Diana claims that she is still with her boyfriend Chris Jones and that she has never cheated on him.
The 17-year-old said: “At the end of the day, I’m not a liar. I’ll tell him everything to do with me and Eoghan and I’d never cheat on anyone in my life. I know that people get hurt and I’d never do that to Chris.
On the X Factor final last Saturday night, Louis Walsh kindly offered Simon Cowell a two for one deal on boybands and brought both Boyzone and Westlife along to duet with the male finalists. Word is that Westlife were last minute replacements for Rihanna, but those rumours are as yet unconfirmed.
When we got the news I didn’t know whether to be glad or sad for Eoghan Quigg. He was to sing with Boyzone, who lets face it were never great vocalists. I wasn’t sure whether the boys would bring Eoghan down or whether he would spectacularly out-sing them making us realise that if Boyzone could be famous then young Eoghan was certainly able for the job.
