Joe McElderry in Talks To Release New Album

Joe McElderry has hinted that he is poised to make a musical comeback following his success on Popstar To Operastar.

The 2009 X Factor winner, who was dropped from Simon Cowell’s record company Syco in April, spoke to The Sun about some “exciting” new developments in his career.

“I had a very exciting meeting last weekend,” he revealed. “I’m going to be very busy over the next couple of weeks, put it that way.”

The singer also expressed hope that Cowell would support his new deal and witness his participation in the Popstar To Operastar final on Sunday.

“I just hope Simon Cowell is watching,” he said. “Maybe he can tune in on Sunday and see what he’s missed!”
