Leon Jackson Is "Insane" Says Razorlight's Johnny Borrell

Razorlight's Johnny Borrell says Leon Jackson is insane for taking so long to work on his debut album, after winning last year's X Factor.
Since he won the contest, the young Scottish singer has taken ten months to record the album 'Right Now' (in shops this week) to make sure it was the best he has to offer.
Talking to the Daily Record, Borrell says of Jackson: "He's not even on my radar I'm afraid. I have never heard of him."
"I'd say you have either got it or you haven't. But if it takes that much effort, you probably haven't got it. The idea of this Leon guy spending the last ten months making a record is insane."
It seems Johnny isn't a big fan of the TV music contest either: "That whole Pop Idol and X Factor thing passed me by. I don't understand what it is for and what the point of it is."
