March 8, 201510 yr If not BB itself! He was heavily rumoured for the Jan series of CBB. :lol: It's not even difficult to imagine him stooping that low, tbf!
March 8, 201510 yr A shame because they have potential and a set of 4 guys who can actually sing very competently. But there's simply not a place for them right now in such a saturated market, they're young guys whose label never really decided if they wanted to market them to a Vamps type audience of a Westlife type audience. And because they were never directed at a Westlife type audience on X Factor, aka their biggest platform, even when that audience latched onto 'You Got It All', I don't think they really cared enough to adopt them into their lives. A shame and I liked their singles but evidently not a surprise and realistically not a huge loss.
March 8, 201510 yr Their biggest problem was the lack of any personality, the label just went for the smouldering look approach. Can't see any of them making it solo either, no doubt a bit of modelling for a year or two then a 'proper job'!
March 8, 201510 yr One of my former pupils stans for this lot so much she's practically best friends with them. She'll be devo'd. But they're just the same as every other boyband at the moment. Barely anything differentiates them and they can't all survive.
March 8, 201510 yr It was clearly going to happen. But I feel bad for them, poor guys. They had a couple of okayish songs.
March 8, 201510 yr Just to wind people up: would this have happened if they hadn't added streaming to the chart? :P
March 8, 201510 yr Still only one source I can find for this story, Daily Star Sunday. Anyone seen any others?
March 8, 201510 yr I think I'm more disappointed not one tabloid gossip column has chosen to report this with the headline 'Union J-ropped'. Puntastic. And it's not surprising to be honest. As has been said already, they were undifferentiated from what else was on the market and their singles - bar 'You Got it All' were atrocious to say the least.
March 8, 201510 yr Can't see any of them making it solo either, no doubt a bit of modelling for a year or two then a 'proper job'! George for a GT or Attitude shoot please *.*
March 8, 201510 yr They seem like nice lads but everything about them seems so flat and boring. They doesn't have that little something that made them special out of all the boysband out there. It was a step up to go from RCA to Epic but nobody was there for them anymore after their first era. I could see them going to CBB (JJ) or some Stricly come dancing (Jaymi). George going solo and Josh doing a sextape.
March 9, 201510 yr Its no surprise they just never took off, while they had a few top 10 singles and a number 2 they all left the chart quickly, the albums didnt sell much either. Th just seemed so forgettable, they needed stronger material, they must be gutted as it was all looking positive after their X Factor performance but it was very short lived, i cant see any of them having solo success either.
March 10, 201510 yr The possibility of them becoming an established and long term act never looked promising. They did appear to have a loyal fan base but it was a very small fan base that helped them achieve high peaks with their singles but not enough to sustain what you could call a genuine hit.
March 10, 201510 yr I think as a group they certainly had potential, but they were screwed over from the very beginning by being given material that sounded like discarded demos from other acts (their first single sounded like something The Wanted threw in the bin, for instance). Plus all the remaining singles sounded like things other boybands in the market were doing too, they never really stood a chance. I'm still amazed they got to a second album, although I'm sure the label which gave it the go ahead must regret it now.
March 3, 20169 yr George has been kicked out of the band by the other boys due to lack of commitment. He will be replaced by a new member.
March 3, 20169 yr Poor thing was probably surplus to requirements now he'd come out. I look forward to Jade Ewen taking on his solos.
March 3, 20169 yr Ha! I've just seen on their twitter a picture of the three remaining members with the caption "the three best friends that anyone could have". Savage.
March 4, 20169 yr The article on digital spy is one of my favourite things ever. Who would think a flop boy band could have such a hilariously blown out split.
March 4, 20169 yr The article on digital spy is one of my favourite things ever. Who would think a flop boy band could have such a hilariously blown out split. I said that to my friend earlier, how can such a dull boyband with a pretty uneventful career create so much random drama? :lol:
