Hot Shot: Alexandra Burke Arrives In LA

Published: Sunday 22nd May 2011 by Sam

Pop starlet Alexandra Burke was spotted strolling through the Los Angeles‘ LAX Airport earlier this week.

The X Factor winner has taken up temporary residence in the US, as she completes work on her hotly anticipated sophomore set. Producers Burke has worked with on the project include Rico Love (‘Motivation’), Andre Merrit (‘Disturbia’), Wayne Wilkins (‘Fight For This Love’), RedOne (‘On The Floor’), and  Swizz Beats (‘Get Me Bodied’). {Pic Source}

Randomness: With X Factor USA set to launch in September, I sure hope plans are being put in place to use it as a launchpad for Alex Stateside. Besides the $5 million deal signed with Epic Records US two years ago, it’s common knowledge that Alex is one of the very best things to come from te X Factor franchise; it’s high time she was showcased as such. For, in every sense of the word, she is world class.

    Alexandra is the bossbitch of the UK atm she runs things over here i hope simon launches her on the show and her team really come up with HITs for her this time round that the US will enjoy aswell as the UK but shes secured her UK fanbase so its only the US she needs work at, alex runs england atm though everything she drops turns into a hit

    i love this chick, loved her first album and hopefullyy the 2nd wont be a let down. glad she takes enough time between albums, UK acts are notorious for dropping albums within 6-month or so gap

    I realy like this girl and I hope she make it big in the US. She just record with SWIZZ BEATS called “Show Off”.

    “Show Off” featuring Alexandra Burke
    The beat maestro creates a worthy successor to Drake’s “Fancy” with another showy tune bound to be the anthem for fly folks everywhere. British “X Factor” winner Alexandra Burke sings the snazzy chorus. “You got your red bottoms on, show off,” Swizzy encourages the ladies.

  5. Dave May 22, 2011

  6. GREENCIOLET May 22, 2011

    MARK MY WORDS.

    SHE HAS IT ALL TO BE A WORLWIDE SUPERSTAR.

    US CITIZENS, PLEASE, WATCH THIS GIRL AND SUPPORT HER!

    Why does the UK always think any idiot who sings over there MUST be liked by the US??? Truth is no one knows or cares who this b**** is… much less than that other twat Cheryl “lip syncing” Cole. We got rid of Leona Lewis’ lame ass and she was more successful in the US (as far as UK artists goes) than Burke will ever be. Heads up to Burke – stay across the Pond.

    everybody seems to be arriving in L.A

  17. Scott May 22, 2011

    Alex is talented full stop.There is no need to compare her to anyone else she is head and shoulders above most of her compettion.Sorry but vocally the British girls are way better than the americans-Alexandra, Adele, Jessie, Leona, Cocknbullkid, Amy and Dionne Broomfield-they do what the Americans have stopped doing -SINGING LIVE, NO AUTOTUNE JUST BIG VOICES.

    She’s talented. She looks decent this go round. Just needs them hits.

  19. Jayjay May 22, 2011

    It would seem that if you all from the UK would like us to support your peers younmight not want to dog ours. And if it wasn’t such a big deal for them to be in the USA then why are they all always trying to break through, move to, or make it here. It’s no need for all the comparisons just enjoy. However in Beyonce’s defense when you make her status then compare. I do believe that Beyonce sings live at all her concerts so keep the auto tune comments and I ain’t no Stan just a person who can hear. Rihanna a different story but let’s keep in mind it is the UK that worships RiRi and then has the nerve to talk about autotune. I think you all are a little confused when it comes to music. Just say that you like this girl who ever she is because we don’t know her yet and keep it moving. You don’t have to prove nothing for her that’s what her music will do. Now to say we Americans don’t know what good music is would also be another UK lie because we love Adele over here and Boyle did nicely
    too.

  20. Scott May 22, 2011

    I am really not dogging US acts but in terms of who is popular here Rihanna, Alexis Jordan ,J-Lo and Jason derulo they do not have the best voices.It would be great to hear more music from Melanie Fiona, Jill Scott and Fantasia but they do not release over here.

  21. KAT DELUNA FAN May 22, 2011

    I Love Alex,Her first album was/is amazing.I got it she is mad talented

    PS:Beyonce name already here ,SMH?!

  22. Dev May 22, 2011

    I cant stand the people who think that Beyonce is the be all and end all, Alexandra would sing better to those people who prefere her voice.
    In terms of singing and pulling off a performance credit has to be given to Alexandra because currently in the U.K there is no one else, Adele and Leona dont sing music that is requires a routine and jessie j doesn’t dance.

    Alexandra like many other artists maynot make it in America but its not the end of the world, and it doesn’t make them less talented, many American artist dont make it in the U.K and are still successful. The fact she still has a U.S record deal means that they are interested in her and have a plan

    I’m not a stan and to be honest can’t stand her music but respect the fact that on the xfactor she sang her ass off and continued to do so till now, i hope the music is more to my liking this time because i couldn’t do with another broken heels.

    She looks nice in this picture.

  23. TS May 22, 2011

    God no. We got too many talented artist in America. We dont want this type of rubbish. And @ Scott American singers are way better than The Uk singers. Adele is good but she’s far from the best. Case in point her music is good but I still prefer Amy. We have Christina,Beyonce,Aretha,Patti,Donna,Mariah,Whitney,Kelly Price,Jill Scott,Fantasia,Jennifer Hudson,Karen Clark Sheard. The list goes on. Wish the Brits would’ve kept their gay dance music too. Now we got all this s***** music on the radio

  24. Dev May 22, 2011

    Yes TS there are many talented artists in the US, but there is also talented artists in the U.K and wordwide there is enough for all of them.

    As for the “gay dance music” i kinda agree but people are gonna love what they want to love.

  25. hans May 22, 2011

    TS: No No not all of them are all good babes 🙂

    MAHOGANY: YOU need to drink your own USA PEE.

    CHRISJ: Your the b**** and beyonce is not that good you are just binging up beyonce because she is light skin.

  26. WonderLand19 May 22, 2011

    I love Alex and i hope she makes it BIG in the USA! Both her and Jessie J are AMAZING!

  27. Glen Tilt May 25, 2011

    Cannot tell you how excited I am to hear Alex’s second album! ‘Overcome’, her first album, is out of this world and she’s also the best live act in like forever. Spellbinding voice, soul, moves . . just can’t get me enough of such an all-round talent. Go Alex!!!!!

  28. Yemmy May 31, 2011

    HECKKK! All I can say is..it’s about time she got here! What the HELL too her so long!
