We love watching those shows, great Saturday evening entertainment. It is all about the show though, how many of them ever really back it big afterwards, very few anyway.

I think that X-Factor is starting up again over here in a few weeks.

I was just thinking though, I sure hope that it does not become the only way of making it big, can you image if the following started their careers on these shows:

David Bowie

Bob Dylan

Neil Young

Janis Joplin

Some of the most talented artists in the world have unique voices that would never fit into the ‘pop star’ category, we never would have heard of these musicians if they went through the Pop Star/X-Factor root.
