Leon Jackson is addicted to X Factor
X Factor winner Leon Jackson has admitted to loving being on the other side of the screen for this year’s show.
He said: “It takes you back, it’s like a trip down memory lane and I sit there in my pyjamas watching it.
“I know exactly what they’re going through (this year’s contestants), all the emotions - I’ve been teary-eyed already.”
He was at the premiere of Guy Ritchie’s new film, RocknRolla, where he was rubbing shoulders with the likes of Madonna and Gerard Butler.
Jackson won the final of X Factor, beating bookmakers’ favourite, Rhydian Roberts, to the prize, but the result caused a public stir that prompted an investigation from Ofcom into the night’s voting figures.
However, Jackson bounced back and released a the single, When You Believe which went to number one.
He is currently preparing for the belated launch of his album, Right Now, released on October 20.
