Alesha Dixon on heartbreak after Polydor dropped her

Alesha Dixon has spoken of her heartbreak when Polydor dropped her in 2006, ahead of her new single The Boy Does Nothing on Atlantic on 3 Nov.

What a great headline, it's like something from Take A Break magazine. Anyway, poor Alesha Dixon. The former Mis-Teeq singer has spoken about how heartbroken she was when Polydor dropped her in 2006 because her second solo single failed to make the top forty. "When I got dropped, I was heartbroken, distraught", she's quoted as saying. "It took me a long time to get the strength to go back in the studio".

Anyway, since winning 'Strictly Come Dancing' last year, the world's been her oyster and nothing can possibly go wrong, ever again. She's releasing a new single ''The Boy Does Nothing', via Atlantic, on 3 Nov. She says: "this time I feel like I've put a protection around myself and I'm stronger. I'm trying to be more practical about it while still putting my heart into everything I do".

I hope things do go well this time around. I like her a lot.
