Eoghan Quigg - X Factor 2008
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
X Factor singer, Diana Vickers has landed a record deal with RCA, but only after being turned down by Simon Cowell’s label Syco.
Simon previously rejected Gary Barlow’s offer to sign Diana, but in the end decided to let her go to another label whilst he concentrates on the career of Alexandra Burke.
Fellow X Factor singer, Eoghan Quigg has also been signed to the same label.

Despite failing to land a record deal with Simon Cowell’s Syco label after this years X Factor, JLS and Eoghan Quigg have managed to get a contract elsewhere.
Northern Irish teenager Eoghan has signed with the RCA label, while boyband JLS have been snapped up by Epic Records.
It seems that any hopes Eoghan Quigg may have had of a relationship with Diana Vickers have finally been quashed with the news that she and boyfriend Chris Jones are very much together.
Chris was said to be “furious” when pictures emerged of Diana and Eoghan kissing passionately and he split with Diana however, a source close to the couple have told the Daily Mail:

Ruth Lorenzo - X Factor 2008
Former X factor contestant Ruth Lorenzo has jumped in on the are they, aren’t they scenario between Diana Vickers and Eoghan Quigg and said that she thinks they should definitely be dating.
Ruth told MSN:
“They are best friends, we always see them together, they’re always joking around or if one or the other misses their families.
“They’re the same age, same situation so they really get along. It would be so cute for them to be together,” she said.
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.
After weeks of speculation I think that this picture confirms what we have all suspected, Diana Vickers and Eoghan Quigg are boyfriend and girlfriend.
Diana sensationally dumper her boyfriend last week after Eoghan rushed the stage, declaring his love for her as she left the X Factor. Since then the pair have been playing it coy and refusing to comment on their ‘relationship.’
