Stickerwatch: Aburke

  • October 20, 2009
  • Popjustice

1. Alexandra Burke won The X Factor you know. Do you think that if Steve Brookstein releases an album tomorrow he is allowed to put 'The X Factor WINNER' on a sticker? Probably not the logo, but the words? After all once one has won The X Factor, one is always an X Factor winner, in the same way that even once one has served one's sentence and been rehab­il­it­ated into society, one is still a convicted arsonist. 

2. We hope the next single isn't 'Good Night Good Morning' (deep breath) 'feat Ne-Yo' because it is, sadly, quite shit. It's no 'Broken Heels', that much is certain. 

3. We went to www.alexandraburkeofficial.com/bonus for our 'bonus content'. As you know we simply can't get get enough of generic bonus content. Doesn't matter what it is, if it requires the press of a red button or isn't worth consuming in its own right, we love it. Tragically the Alexandra link seems to be more inter­ested in data capture than providing us with shoddy behind the scenes footage nobody in their right mind would actually choose to watch, so we gave that one 'a wide berth'.
