Louis Walsh believes Sam Callahan should ditch music

The longest serving X Factor judge Louis Walsh has said of the 19-year-old live show contestant Sam Callahan will leave many teenage girls deeply upset!

Here at MarkMeets, we’ve been supporting hot new music talent for a decade now and have known Sam for a considerable time.

Sam’s vocal abilities have divided opinion among both the public and the judges, earning more praise for his looks and staging than his singing.

His biggest critic, panellist Gary Barlow, became so bored of Sam’s performances during the latest live show on Saturday that he claimed he couldn’t offer any constructive criticism.

And now Sam has told The Sun that Louis – who, in an unusual twist of fate, is the only judge with all three of their acts still in the competition – reckons that he’d be better off trying to make it as a TV presenter.

Sam said: “Louis brings so much knowledge and experience. He was saying I should try TV presenting. I’d love to do The Xtra Factor, it fits with my personality.”

However, he quickly added: “My music will always come first. I don’t care what haters say, I care what family, friends and supporters say.”

The X Factor continues this weekend on ITV, when the remaining seven contestants will tackle songs from ‘The Great British Songbook’.

Guest performances include Garu Barlow who’ll perform his brand new solo single ‘Let Me Go’ plus Miley Cyrus will be here!
