Ever wondered just how much cash is involved in the X-Factor? Well, now you can worry no longer. That impressive sounding one million pound contract for winner Alexandra Burke isn’t all for her – it counts the total spend on promotion, recording, management fees, and other incidentals, alongside an advance to Burke for £150,000.
Simon Cowell of course is the big winner here, as his record company, Syco, now has Burke on a multi-year, multi-album contract with a “modest percentage” of sales going back to the protege.
Fellow finalists who will also be signed up are JLS (£75,000 advance), Eoghan Quigg (£50,000) and Diana Vickers (£10,000). Still, for a few months work on national television and a chance to be lifted out the rat race, it’s not all that bad.
