I think 1D will win both but interesting side note in the UK, Ben Haenow's album is out the same week. I think he could possibly sell more than Justin.

OK I know this isn't about this single but lovely pic of Ben getting his platinum disc today. https://twitter.com/syco/status/649275734893199361

Beautiful pic. He looks so excited.

Wow I hope he does it! I'm not sure of the other releases that week and his chances. Although I do have a good vibe about Ben in general.

You're right!

Ha ha you guys and your fonts I was too busy looking a Ben :) Although now you mention it I can see the Busted comparison.

So this is now out to pre-order. Released on 9 October! Sooner than I thought. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Second-Heart-Haeno...ords=ben+haenow

Yes Ben replied with this :) Can't wait to hear it now. https://twitter.com/Bhaenow/status/648522897259130880

http://www.zapgossip.com/ben-haenow-duets-...his-new-single/ First actual article I've seen confirming this. I am so glad Cowell seems to be right behind Ben as opposed to his attitude to most previous male winners. I don't condone his treatment of them but as a fan of Ben I'm pleased he's not being thrown under the bus!

Yes that's right, I think its the last trimester, so after 6 months into the pregnancy. I'm not sure how far along she is. But all the reports say vocal rest until the end of the year, so doubt she will be able to sing. I guess they could play the video and have Ben do his parts live. Bit of a shame all round really. But yes I'm sure he will have a version he can sing without her after all he will surely be doing other promo and I doubt even if she was well she would have followed him around to every performance.

I guess there are a few options, live performances are not always "live" so they could mime if Kelly can't sing as she would want to or Ben could just sing a version of the song by himself. I'm sure Flo-rida wasn't with Alexandra Burke on all performances of Bad Boys for example. I guess we have to wait and see how big Kelly's part is and if it can be changed if need be.

Well for Ben I'm guessing he will perform on the live shows first weekend (31 October). The Friday being the 30th for the single release. I think that's a couple of weeks later than normal for the first show, so the week before is a possibility. Just depends how they want to play it. Assuming this schedule is correct. http://www.tellymix.co.uk/reality-tv/the-x...edule-here.html

The release dates are going to be interesting. I have to assume they are going to be sensible enough to not have their acts clashing and fighting for chart positions on the first week of release. Not much time to play with though.

Thank you agree. I just got carried away at posting the news :)

Sorry just posted this on the other thread. Thanks to whoever made the new one :) Its Ben's lead single for his album and its called Second Hand Heart.

Ha you are just peeved you were wrong and it wasn't a mothers day album of covers :P I am looking forward to this as I love Ben and Kelly! Hopefully this will help Ben in the states. Cmon you never know you might like it :)

Aaaaaaaaaaaaghhhhhhhh Ben is dueting with Kelly Clarkson! https://instagram.com/p/8BO_ABln0F/ A bit excited about this!

So we have a title for Ben's first single it seems "Second Hand Heart". He landed in Nashville today to film the video. According to his Facebook Q&A its out in October, which would tie in with the first XF live shows.

Well finally getting a bit more information about what Ben will be releasing and according to Simon Cowell on TV today, his first single will be a duet with someone "really really famous" I've also watched the program he was on Loose Women (wouldn't normally but recorded when I heard the Ben news) so its not Twitter gossip. Obvious choices would be Danny from The Script or Ed Sheeran as these have been reported as possibilities but it really could be anyone. Ben recorded his album in LA. I do wonder if it might be a featured guest artist rather than a full on duet (a bit like Alex and Flo-rida) but very interested to see who it may be. https://twitter.com/JustSimonCowell/status/...859879020843008

Thought Always on my Mind and Suspicious Minds would be higher on the list. Also one of my personal favs In the Ghetto should be higher :) Way Down being released after his death is in a false position really as his passing clearly boosted the sales. Interesting list though.

Very happy that Ben Haenow got his platinum certification. Good timing just before he brings out something new :)

Such a shame, Joel is so much more interesting.

I don't know how will you?

What a travesty! I'm never watching again etc etc :lol: The British public strike AGAIN.

Jack still arguing about being nominated :lol:
