Simon Cowell and Joe McElderry Congratulate Rage Against The MachineDecember 21, 2009
X Factor winner and Christmas chart loser Joe McElderry has congratulated Rage Against The Machine on their triumph.
The 18-year-old from Newcastle branded 'Killing In The Name' “dreadful” on Friday and added “I hate it!” After hearing about the result this evening, McElderry said: “It's been exciting to be part of a much-hyped battle and they definitely deserve congratulations." He added: “This time last year I never thought for one minute that I'd win The X Factor, never mind about having a debut single out, so I'm just delighted to be in the charts. "It's been such an incredible couple of months and I got the best Christmas gift I could ever have asked for in winning The X Factor." Meanwhile, Simon Cowell praised Jon and Tracy Morter for their Facebook campaign. He told the BBC: "I am gutted for Joe because a number one single meant a lot to him but I have to congratulate Jon and Tracy, who started the Facebook campaign. "I called Jon on Saturday to congratulate the two of them that, win or lose, they turned this into a very exciting race for the Christmas number one. "I am proud of Joe - he worked really hard this week, but he has a great year ahead of him." Don't forget, you can still donate to Shelter HERE.
