Cheryl Looks Set For Number One

Sales figures after one day show the song is selling three times as many copies as its nearest rival- Alexandra Burke’s Bad Boys.

 

Cheryl’s performance on the X Factor this Sunday will certainly have helped sales with over 12 million people tuning into the ITV show.

 

Ironically Cole was Alexandra’s mentor on the talent show and they are apparently close friends.

 

The extent of X Factor’s influence on the charts is seen elsewhere in the Top 10. Whitney Houston looks likely to hit Top 5 despite mixed reviews for her own performance on the programme.

 

Christina Aguilera could also score a surprise top 10 re-entry with Hurt- after the track was sung by contestant Jamie Archer.
