Remember Brenda Edwards from two X Factors ago? Well, I got an email from her son Jamal earlier today saying she’s been nominated for Best Reality Star in Screen Nation’s Film & TV Awards.
Brenda was one of our favourite contestants in the 2005 X Factor, and we were glad to see she went on to bigger things. That’s why we’d encourage everyone to go on and give Brenda a bit of support.
Anyone interested in what Brenda’s doing at the moment should check out her website.

I have to admit to having a bit of a crush on Maria Lawson from last year’s X-Factor, and I’ve been waiting for her to release a single since she was cruelly booted out by Louis Walsh.
I caught Maria’s new single Sleepwalking on The Box(I think?) a couple of weeks ago. It’s quite a slick tune, bit of a smooth urban vibe, and the video reminds me of Craig David’s Seven Days with Maria witnessing a series of mishaps then reliving them and helping to prevent them.
You can catch a snippet of the video on the Maria Lawson website, and according to the blurb Sleepwalking is coming out on 14 August.
By the way, I wasn’t impressed with the gallery. They’ve airbrushed Maria to hell and it’s not nice, takes away from her natural beauty. Grrr!
What did you guys think?
