STILL JAH-MAZING!!!!!
X-Factor runner-up Jahmene Douglas does Swindon proud
Swindon's new singing star just lost out on the X-Factor crown tonight.
Despite producing one of his best ever performances when singing The Beatles 'Let it Be', Jahmene was pipped to the title by fellow finalist James Arthur.
"It's such a blessing to share the stage with such a talent," a typically unselfish JD said of the winner as the result was announced.
Jahmene will now get ready to appear on the X-Factor Tour which starts next month.
Swindon star up against James Arthur for the X-Factor crown

Jahmene Douglas survived a microphone problem to reach the last two of X-Factor tonight.
Christopher Maloney was eliminated leaving the Swindon star and the final favourite to battle it out in Sunday's grand finale.
During the first performance of the night, Jahmene was forced to share his microphone with his mentor Nicole Scherzinger as the two dueted on stage after a technical hitch.
But after brushing off the incident by saying 'we just stayed cool', Jaheme wooed the judges and millions at home with his opening solo - Moving on Up. A rendition Gary Barlow admitted was on 'another level'.
The X-Factor Grand Final is on Sunday.

Following tonight’s elimination the acts through to the final are... *drum roll please*... James Arthur, Christopher Malone and JAHMÉNE DOUGLAS!
All three acts are going to have a fight on their hands as they’re some of the strongest singers to come from this year’s competition. Next week each act will be singing with their respective mentors so we have some Gary Barlow and Nicole Scherzinger action to look forward to!
01 December, 2012
It’s now December and we all know what that means – Semi Finals week! Tonight one of the four remaining acts left in the X Factor competition will be leaving, while the others move on to the finals.
Who will it be? Swindon’s very own Serenader, Liverpudlian Christopher Malone, charming Union J or bad-boy James Arthur. All four acts will be singing for survival with a song dedicated to someone special and one other of their choosing.

Axed Ella Henderson has said in an exclusive interview with LOOK Magazine that she thinks Jahméne will be the one to scoop the winning spot at next week’s final. Let’s just hope he can sail through the semi-finals like he has through the rest of the competition!
25 November, 2012
That was an amazing sing off tonight!! Everyone was left feeling a little sorry for poor old Rylan though it seemed it was his time to go. Needless to say Jahméne sailed through to the semi-finals. Next week is going to be so exciting!! Tell us who you think will win on Twitter @Swindonweb
24 November, 2012
‘I’m running out of ways to lick your a**e’! Tulisa’s comment says it all. Another fantastic week of performances for all the remaining boys, but who will be safe and who will go home?
23 November, 2012
It’s a mash-up this week with each act performing TWO songs on the X Factor. One Abba. One Motown. I am very much looking forward to this as our boy Jahméne is the king of Motown. Everyone remembers that Etta James classic from his first audition; can we expect another belter like that?
19 November, 2012
WHAT A SURPRISE! Following the shock elimination of the favourite, Ella Henderson, there has been a mass Twitter war discussing the legitimacy of the show. But look on the bright side! Jahméne is now the favourite to win!
18 November, 2012
After Jahméne’s fantastic performance of Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes’ hit Don’t Leave Me This Way; we are all hoping and praying that our boy stays in a few hours we will find out for sure who is safe for another week and who will be getting the bus home.
17 November, 2012
It’s week 7 of the live X Factor shows and we are left with; Rylan Clarke, James Arthur, Ella Henderson, Christopher Malone, Union J, and of course Jahméne Douglas! What will they pull out of the bag for Guilty Pleasures week?!
16 November, 2012
While some may believe that Jahméne Douglas has ‘sold-out’ by doing all the recent magazine interviews, he firmly sticks by the fact that he is purely trying to raise awareness of domestic violence and promoting his mother’s charity for the protection of women.
A fine and worthy cause backed by the honourable Jahméne who later refused to sing any songs on the X Factor that promoted ‘boozing’!
15 November, 2012
Are the X Factor camp working Jahméne too hard? Late nights are plaguing our boy and we hope that it’s from working hard and not partying like the other contestants!
11 November, 2012
After last week’s visit from Robbie Williams, Jahméne went for a Robbie inspired song in the form of the British classic; Angels. But will it be enough to take him through? Looks like it as Nicole’s boys are all through to the next live show!
10 November, 2012
Tonight’s the night, once again the contestants of the X Factor are going to be battling it out to secure a place in the finals. The theme: Best of British! But who will do our nation proud?
04 November, 2012
Tonight Jahméne was made safe once again by the public vote, but we say goodbye to rocky contestant Kye Sones who was eliminated after his sing off with Rylan Clarke which resulted in Deadlock.
Kye admitted, on the Xtra Factor, that he is now backing Jahmene to take the crown and told Olly Murs: “I would love Jahmene to win just because of where’s he come from and he’s the most amazing singer.”
03 November, 2012
There wasn’t a dry eye in the house tonight as Jahméne Douglas sang his incredible rendition of Beyonce’s song; Listen. All of the judges were left astounded by his talent with Tulisa saying “I guess I'll see you at the finals, right?”.
31 October, 2012
Today is Halloween and the X Factor clan are celebrating by heading to ASDA to give Nicole Scherzinger, Judge of ‘The Boys’ category, a taste of the world that Jahméne has come from.
Hanging out in ASDA has given her the opportunity to experience the everyday activities that Jahméne undertakes while adding a touch of glamour to Swindon. Although I don’t think she’ll get along so well stacking shelves in her enormous heels!
30 October, 2012
Our X Factor golden boy is turning out to be a real diamond in the rough. Hailed for his dapper and quirky style; Jahméne is now being recognised by the UK’s shopping outlets as a style icon.

It appears that the young Swindoner has a secret passion for Countdown and a crush on the impeccable Carol Vorderman! Getting excited on the red-carpet he says "I've just seen Carol Vorderman walk past [...] She’s beautiful”.
28 October, 2012
It’s sad to see another contestant go on today’s X Factor, especially the beautiful Jade. However, our boy Jahméne is safe for another week!
27 October, 2012
Jahméne sang Killing Me Softly by The Fugees tonight but will it be enough to get him through to week 5? The judges seem to think so with their truck-full of praise which sees Judge Tulisa hailing him ‘the man who can’t be moved’. @SwindonWeb
