The X Factor promo videos have finally surfaced on the internet and they’re not disappointing either. For months, headlining stories have surfaced in the tabloids around the show from Cheryl Cole‘s departure to Simon Fuller wanting to sue Simon Cowell for not crediting his work making it one of the most talked about talent shows.

The X Factor is another follow-up to American Idol where contestants compete for the winning prize, a $5 million record deal to Sony – one of the biggest prizes to be given away on television and of course a debut album to follow.

Tension has already risen as the videos launched on YouTube earlier this week and we’re eager to know what happened to 27 year old Xander, a contestant who seems to have ‘real attitude’ to Simon Cowell, whenever Simon asks him a question he seems to respond negatively up until the point where he was finally told to ‘Shut Up’. He tells Cowell that they should take this outside (fight) but a lot of editing was done from this clip so will not know what happened to him until the show starts.
