Stacey Soloman's Pizza Encouragment

Sunday 13th December 2009 - 13:47:33

Stacey Soloman doesn't know if it's a complement that she has a pizza named after her.

'The X Factor' finalist said she is flattered a local pizzeria in her home town of Dagenham, Essex, has created a special pizza to support her in the show - but she is not sure about the topping.

Downplaying her good looks, she said: "It's got everything on it, they must think I'm a right pig! But my picture goes out with every pizza, I'm not sure that's what you want to see just before you eat!"

Stacey will compete against male singers Olly Murs and Joe McElderry in the reality show's final this weekend, but no matter who wins, former reality show judge Pete Waterman reckons they will have a short career in showbusiness.

Criticising the programme, the former 'Pop Idol' and 'Popstars: The Rivals' judge said: "I can guarantee they all have decent but unremarkable voices, no discernible personalities - and some heart-rending tale to tell about a granny who's died, a distant cousin with a drug habit or some other such sob story.

"Will any of them have the elusive X Factor? Absolutely not. And I can promise you another thing - when the interminable farrago of karaoke wailing and crooning is over for another series, we'll barely hear a peep out of this year's winner again."

He also blasted show head 'X Factor' judge Simon Cowell, saying he has "no interest in acts with longevity".
