One year after Sam Bailey was crowned the winner of the ‘X Factor UK 2013‘, Pop Rock singer Ben Haenow has beaten Urban Pop singer Fleur East to win this year’s show, bagging himself a contract with Sony Music Entertainment.
His win sees him follow in the footsteps of previous winners Alexandra Burke, Leona Lewis and ‘Suicide’ performer James Arthur, all of whom went onto release chart-topping solo albums under the tutelage of ‘Syco’ exec Simon Cowell, also a judge on the hit series.
