Alex's love rat

As X Factor's Alexandra Burke is on the cusp of having her wildest dreams come true, and ex-boyfriend is out to shatter them.

This weekend a Sunday newspaper revealed that Alex's ex allegedly approached them trying to secure a £100,000 deal to sell them a sex tape, which he made of the talented singer when she was just 18 years old.

Going by the name of D'Andre, the ex has apparently been obssessed with Alex since they split over two years ago. He's said to have begun sending the X Factor contestant incessant text messages detailing that he know where she is every second of the day, even mentioning what she is wearing.

So far the Sunday newspaper have refused to buy the tape or pay D'Andre any money for his story, and we hope for Alexandra's sake that no one else will either.
