James Morrison: JLS Are The Worst Singers I've Ever Heard

James Morrison has slammed JLS, describing the former X Factor boy band as “the world singers I've ever heard”.

The singer's comments came during an attack on TV talent shows like The X Factor and the impact the impression they give to wannabe performers.

"That show sends out the message that you can be famous for doing f*ck all and that you can succeed even if you're not a good singer,” Morrison told the Daily Star.

"JLS are the worst singers I've ever heard. I've heard their raw vocals in the studio and they just cannot sing, yet they've had multi-million selling albums."

He added: "That's a weird message to give kids. People need to keep believing in real music, yet these X Factor idiots are on the radio and that's a downward spiral."

Morrison releases his third studio album 'The Awakening' on September 26.
