Scott Bruton- X Factor 2008

X Factor reject, Scott Bruton is reportedly seeking legal advice in a bid to get out of his X Factor contract which restricts him from releasing any music until February.

According to The Mirror, Bruton told friends: “I’m stuck in my contract with X Factor until February. I’m getting a solicitor to look and see if they can get me out of it. I know I still have what it takes to become a star and I don’t see why I should have to wait.”

Tickets for the X factor live tour were released weeks ago and I bet that many of you big time fans have already booked your seats for the show.

However, do you realise that just because your favourite act made it into the final twelve, does not mean that they will be on the nationwide tour.

We had a chat with outgoing act, Scott Bruton this morning and congratulated him on the fact that although he was leaving the show, he would still get to perform in front of millions on the XF tour.

A devastated Scott Bruton shuffled off the X Factor stage on Saturday night, having lost his place in the competition to an outstanding last-minute performance from Daniel Evans.

Still choked up after Daniel’s performance, Louis Walsh sealed Scott’s fate and sent him home. And as Dermot O’Leary attempted to interview him, it was obvious that Scott was shell-shocked from the sudden defeat.

We caught up with Scott during his hectic Monday morning interview schedule and asked him how he felt in the wake of Saturday night.

Scott Bruton- X Factor 2008

Well we hit the nail on the head once again. Scott Bruton was placed at the bottom of this weeks Unreality TV X Factor chart and when he ended up in the bottom two acts tonight, three out of four judges opted to send him home.

Scott was up against Daniel Evans and was completely out sang. Daniel dedicated his final song to his dead wife (clever eh?) and made Louis Walsh cry, not an easy task I tell you. In comparison Scott’s lacklustre version of ‘I Can’t Make You Love Me’ seemed weak and lifeless.

We will be chatting with Scott on Monday morning, so pop back to see how he feels about his departure and what he has planned for the future.

Simon Cowell is feeling a bit put out this week as Peter Kay’s single ‘Winners Song’ trounced Leon Jacksons ‘Don’t Call This Love’ in the UK charts.

Simon has spoken out calling Kay’s single pathetic and added that Kay’s planned Christmas single it is no threat to the eventual X factor winner.

“I thought the show was clever, but the record was stupid. The single is a pathetic waste of time,” Simon told The Mirror.

“He is going to bring out a Christmas single? I mean, come on. I don’t feel threatened by him in the slightest,” Cowell continued. “I’ve got something in mind for our Christmas single and I know which one I would put my money on.”

Scott Bruton- X Factor 2008

X Facor contestant Scott Bruton, was really thrilled with his performance and the Judges comments last Saturday night and he’s loving making his parents so proud. However he has had a crisis of confidence this week and feels insecure in the competition because he believes Austin and Eoghan are stronger contenders than he is.

At choreography practice Creaibe Director of the show, Brian Friedman took him to one side and gave him a pep talk telling him he wanted to see the cheeky chappy blue coat that first entered the competition, and after doing a few mantras in the mirror of “I am going to win” Scott’s feeling much better about his position in the show.

Scott Bruton- X Factor 2008

Scott Bruton had a “disaster” last week on the first X Factor live show, with even Simon admitting he’d picked the wrong for him.

Scott saw his dream slipping away from him as he really believed he was going home, making him realise how important this competition is for him.

Thankfully this week Scott has admitted that he “loves” the song Simon has given him (find out on Saturday!) and he’s had really positive feedback from the vocal coaches so now he believes that he can right the wrong from last week by blowing the public away this week.

Scott Bruton- X Factor 2008

All the X Factor final acts are now living in an eight bedroom house together and in a house with 21 people some people’s antics are getting on their nerves….! Scott and Eoghan have been trying the others acts patience with their high jinx’s antics, including smearing Vaseline on door handles and hiding mattresses in peoples wardrobes!

And Austin seems to be just as bad in the house with his cleanliness habits being called into question, leaving his pants living around in bathrooms and drinking the “communal” milk from the carton. He also is a night owl, often not going to bed till the early hours, but continues to play his guitar even though the others are fast asleep…..
