X-Factor reject James Bellamy has landed a starring role in a West End musical. The seventeen year old singer is to take the part of Stevie Wonder in 'Dancing In The Streets', a revue of Tamla Motown classics that has already toured the UK.
Bellamy was considered very talented by the X-Factor judges, but he failed to make it into Louis Walsh's final four, largely, one suspects, on account of his youthfulness. He will continue to attend college whilst appearing onstage in the evening. Which is pretty dedicated. He'll be knackered.
