X-Factor winner Matt Cardle is reportedly livid that fellow competition finalists One Direction have been given a release before him – and is going to hold Simon Cowell responsible if the boy-band over-shadow his success.
Although finishing first in the seventh series of the show, Cardle has only since put out ‘When We Collide’, the song which he sang when he had won the competition. The singer has since been working on his debut album, but hasn’t yet finished work on it. But, One Direction were already ready to put out their debut single – and Cowell has put the release through, to the horror of Cardle.
“They're competition,” admitted Cardle. “It is shit they got to release before the winner of the actual show. It's also worrying me that if One Direction decide to get slicker and go for more of an older market, then I’m stuffed too. It shouldn't have happened really. Simon's naughty.
“I just hope I’ll be able to cement myself into the charts before that happens. Otherwise I’ll be fuming. I can’t win unless I have an album that does the talking, and I think it does.”
The Essex-born 28 year-old then went on to talk about how he needs to get rid of the X-Factor image that surrounds his career.
“I'm desperate to shake off the X Factor tag now. It's all about shaking the X when it comes to the music I’m about to release. But I can't knock the show for what it's done for me. I’ve got my break from it and I've got my foot in the door by doing it.”
