JLS were disappointed to be beaten into 2nd place but still have a great future ahead of them.
Cute Eoghan Quigg, 16, also has a huge fan teenage fan base.
As winner of The X Factor, Alexandra scoops a £1m record deal and will release her stunning version of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, a cert for the Christmas No 1 slot.
Alexandra was so overwhelmed by her win that she fell to the floor in front of host Dermot O'Leary, speechless with emotion.
Finally, Alex composed herself so that she could sing Hallelujah as X Factor winner 2008. But her voice broke halfway through the song because she was still so choked.

she should be winning an oscar for her performance, what an actress, ive never seen anything so fake, and crying without tears is an outstanding bit of acting
Crying without tears? Wow that must of been some magic make-up that magically started to roll down her face!
I know what you mean Sharon, there's something about Alex that I just do not like. She doesn't seem genuine to me, but I can't put my finger on it. I know many people will disagree as she obviously has a large fanbase, but I'm just not one of them at all. She's not a patch on Leona, she's a sweetheart!
theres no WAY she got a million more votes than JLS. i loveeeeeee jls!! :)
