What a great piece to celebrate our 1 year birthday of www.joemcelderry.com launched 12 months ago today, before X Factor first came on TV.

Joe McElderry has confirmed that his new as yet Un-titled debut album will hit the shops on October 25th and he will launch the Album at london’s trendy G-A-Y nightclub 2 days before release date.

G-A-Y has had a number of huge pop stars appear there and it helped kick start Girls Aloud career while they were still trying to breakthrough.

Joe also said that he has been working with producers who have worked with artists including Rihanna, Pussycat Dolls and Enrique Iglesias.

We cant wait! Are you going to see Joe McElderry at G-A-Y in London or have you pre ordered his Album?

Joe McElderry has announced to Gordon Smart of the Sun Newspaper that he is Gay. After lots of speculation about Joe’s sexual preference, everybody now knows what floats 19 Year Old Joe’s boat.

Mirroring Will Young in many respects after a landslide win in the Nation’s biggest TV Show, With screaming girls lusting after him. Then announcing after “I am Gay”.

Will Young announced his own Sexuality after his smash hit Evergreen, shortly after Winning Pop Idol and talking to the News of The World. At the time people worried if narrow minded people would affect his career, those worries proved unfounded and Will Young went on to be a massively successful Singer with a big fan base.

If Joe can now let his singing do the talking so to speak, he knows that this news will not hinder him. Will Young is one of the UK’s most adored Singers. There will be some Girls who adored Geordie Joe McElderry who may take time to get to grips with the news. Will Young proved that the voice is what counts and only Bigots and Homophobic people will give Joe stick. It also opens up a whole new fan base for Joe McElderry too.

Good on ya Joe, now hurry up and get this album out and get the Solo Tour on the road, we can’t wait and frankly we do not care who you fancy or whether they are Male or Female!

We are sure you will be just as successful as Will Young as you both have a superb voice and are loved by all.

The early signs are as most would have thought, very positive and that its no big deal for Joe McElderry’s fans or the public.

Its nearly here, Despite some problems with earthquakes and a change of location to London from LA. Joe McElderry is working on his eagerly awaited Debut Album. John Shanks and Dallas Austin are working with Joe and these two have worked with the very best in the business, including Leona Lewis, Gwen Stefani, Madonna, Take That, Pink and Michael Jackson.

So despite the Studio time being spent in London instead of LA, Joe still has the producers he wanted and was due to work with in America. Look out for some great Pop Songs and we have a feeling there maybe a bit of Hip Hop or RnB thrown in as Dallas Austin is the man when it comes to those type of songs.

Joe has been in the Studio in London for a few days and has been burning the midnight oil. We cannot wait to hear some of the new songs and for Joe to appear on TV singing them.

He said: “I’m having so much fun being in the studio and working on my album.

“The producers I have been working with are amazing and I love the whole process of being creative and making my own record.

“It’s so exciting.”

Its been a wait for Joe’s fans but we are sure it will be well worth it. Go to our Forums now (Main Menu at top of the page click Forum), register if you have not done so already and chat about all things Joe McElderry on the first ever Joe McElderry site to hit the Internet back in August 2009!.

Are we all excited?

Joe McElderry continues to show that he gets better and better. At the Recent Glam in The City 2010 event in Glasgow, Scotland, Joe looked very confident and happy on stage singing live. Joe never held back on the big notes and really gave a sensational perfomance. This makes us all the more impatient to hear news of the Debut Album and a Solo Tour. Go Joe!!

Below is a great video by Joanne, Enjoy

Joe McElderry posted on Twitter that he couldnt believe how the Uruguay Linesman failed to give Frank Lampard’s goal as England exited to Germany. Joe seemed excited as the Match progressed then showed he was disappointed.

about 17 hours ago via UberTwitter .Yeaaaaahhh!!!
about 17 hours ago via UberTwitter .Omg!!! Whattttt!
about 17 hours ago via UberTwitter .Nooooo!!!!

In a strange spooky way Joe will be even more freaked now that his Official Website has disappeared and is now showing as a GERMAN Sony site.

I wonder if Joe is getting the hump with Germany. Do you know what has happened to Joe’s Official site? Were you as angry as Joe at the World Cup match between Germany and England.

Joe McElderry has told the Sun Newspaper that he is about to Fly out to Los Angeles to start work on his Debut Album. Joe has been delayed a number of times and some of the British Press had started to label him a flop despite winning X Factor and Headlining the X Factor Arena Tour and appearing at Radio 1s Big Weekend.

Joe also told The Sun that he has a few surprises up his sleeve for the Album and that he cannot wait to get started.

What type of songs would you like to hear Joe Sing on his First Album?
