Fighting talk may not be enough in the futile battle for Christmas number one though. The latest word from the stats monkeys is that Girls Aloud are about 8000 units ahead of One True Voice in this week’s festive chart race.
But whatever happens it is likely to be good news for ITV bosses this Sunday as Popstar acts are expected to fill the Christmas top 3. Girls Aloud and One True Voice will be in the number one and two spot, with the Cheeky Girls, who were laughed off Popstars but went on to release their own single, ‘The Cheeky Song’, expected to be at number three – their third week in the top three.
The current number one from Elton John and Blue is currently in fourth place.
