James Arthur slams The X Factor


James Arthur has launched a new attack on The X Factor, branding the show 'karaoke' and slagging off former male winners of the contest, reports the Daily Mirror.

In an interview on Polish TV, he said: “Having watched X Factor over the years, they just haven’t got it right. The male winners haven’t been believable. They look like puppets, they sound like puppets.

“I happen to agree with a lot of people who say it’s like karaoke. I’ve done it myself watching the show over the years and saying, ‘I’ve seen better down my local pub. Unfortunately, there’s a f***load of karaoke singers in the world and all they can do is make them look like good karaoke singers.”

The singer, who recently slammed 'bullies' in the press for 'disgraceful propaganda' written about him, also appeared to hit out at his record label during the interview.

He said: “I have people telling me what I can and can’t do, what music I can and can’t make. People who aren’t artists don’t think about creativity and art, they think about money.

“When you find fame or you get signed to a record label, it’s not what you imagined – because you imagined they would have 100 per cent trust or faith in you as an artist. Unfortunately, that’s not really the case – it’s what sells.”

Don't  get me wrong I like James and nobody can say that he doesn't have talant. However  it comes across as a bit ungrateful, there are something's you leave at the kitchen table.
