Matt Cradle is the winner of X Factor 2010. He won the British Music talent show on December twelve with his incredible voice. The 27 year old from Little Maplestead in Essex who was once a lonely and shy boy is now recognised and own one of the greatest voice in music. It was unbelievable because his rival and co-singer Rebecca Ferguson was brilliantly amazing as well. Both of them stood out early in time during the whole contest, both were really shy in the begging and ended up being brave, strong, unbelievable and breath taking at the end of the programme. it was left for the public to choose their winner, and they choose Matt, it was also said that Matt had the highest vote of all time throughout this year programme.
This is the seventh UK series of the programme and a product of ITV. This year, Simon Cowell the music gurus' show started airing on August 21 2010 and ended on December 12 with Matt as the final cake winner.
Majority of viewers were very happy to see Matt Cradle win, most believe there aren’t enough male singers in the British music industry and Matt winning will be more helpful compared to a female winner. Most of them also accepted that Rebecca has got the voice and will make it any way because over the past few years, JLS has proved it that runner ups can make it as much as the winner. Some viewers also thought it was all about the judges and was very happy to see Dannii Minogue win this year.
Matt Cradle didn’t undergo a happy child hood he was diagnosed with a wired tumour, which was a form of cancer as a toddler and recovered after one of his kidneys was removed at the age of two. Before applying for the X Factor, he was the front man and acoustic guitar of a band called Seven Summers. The band with alternative Rock, pop and urban was struggling and managed to grab a Panice Best Band 2010 award. For pocket money and beer money, he was a house painter and decorator before auditioning for The X Factor.
His Runner up Rebecca Ferguson twenty four from Liverpool is a single mother of two. She has previously auditioned in The X Factor and P. Diddy’s Starmaker in New York and was unsuccessful on both over the past years. As dream never dies, destiny can never be taken away but can only be delayed. She made herself known to the word as she tried again in The X Factor 2010.
