‘X Factor’s Jack Walton on Mel B: ‘Apparently she is a big deal’
By Sam Rigby
Eliminated X Factor finalist Jack Walton has criticised his mentor Mel B for not listening to him.
The 18-year-old singer – who was kicked off the ITV show on Saturday (November 1) – said it was “hard to pipe up” in front of her.
Speaking to Metro, Walton explained: “I spoke to her about not feeling comfortable with some of the stuff I was doing. But I am just a lad from Castleford and she is a Spice Girl.
“I don’t know much about her, to be honest. But apparently she is a big deal. It’s hard to pipe up in front of someone like that.”
He added that fans should know that The X Factor didn’t show off the type of music he would perform at one of his own concerts.
“I want everyone to know what people saw on X Factor was not anything what you would see at a gig. I enjoyed the show, it were amazing. But don’t expect Eye of the Tiger at a gig. It’s not going to happen,” he said.
Walton recently admitted that he got “a lot of stick” after his mother came out as gay – read more here.
Meanwhile, the singer has stripped off for the next issue of Attitude – take a look at a sneak preview here.
