It’s only a full month after X Factor wound up, and JLS have finally signed with Epic. I’m actually very pleased for the boys – they were definitely another of my great hopes to win X Factor aside from Alexandra Burke.

Now, as long as Louis ‘let’s put some nice suits on you and give you an Osmonds song to sing’ Walsh doesn’t get his hands on them, their success seems certain.

Of course, I’m curious to see how they’ll be styled, and what type of music they’ll be doing. It would be a shame to reduce this talented bunch into another run-of-the-mill boyband.

Here’s a quotable from Epic’s managing director, Nick Raphael.

"JLS are the best boy band to emerge from a TV talent show. The band already have an incredible fan base, and I look forward to launching their recording career."

In other important news, I deleted G4’s debut album from my iPod yesterday. I never actually listened to it.
