Last year’s ‘X Factor’ runners-up JLS have said that they are backing Rikki and Rachel in this year’s competition.
According to Digital Spy, Ortisé Williams: “We’ve got two friends from last year on there, Rachel Adedeji and Ricky Loney, and they’re both incredible talents so we hope they go all the way.”
“We would love a band to win, I think it’s about time. For us, we’re a band, so it would be like, ‘Yeah, another band’s won, another band’s coming through’.”
“There’s also some great groups, solo males, solo females — it’s a very strong year.”
His bandmate Aston Merrygold said: “Another band would never be a threat because you’ve got so many females, they’re not threats to each other. They’re all doing their own things and they’re still there.”
