It has been reported that Simon Cowell plans to drop UK singer Shayne Ward next year.The News of The World newspaper reported that the singer is on the verge of being dropped from label SyCo as his comeback single 'Gotta Be Somebody' and album 'Obession' under-performed in the charts since his three-year absence.
A source revealed, "Shayne is finished at SyCo. Simon has tried his best to turn him into a star but it simply hasn't worked."
"He gave Shayne one more chance after ending his working relationship with Louis but his music hasn't connected with the public."
"The chances of him being a popstar again are incredibly low. It's a huge personal blow to Shayne. For a long time people thought he'd become the next Robbie Williams. But the music industry is ruthless and he is costing the company a lot of money at the moment."
They continued: "Shayne is also quite arrogant about his music [and] isn't the easiest person to work with. He will be quietly let go next year and the focus will turn to the new crop of X Factor contestants."
Ward's next single 'Obsession' is due for release early next year.
