Eoghan Quigg blasts 'jealous' Sampson

Eoghan Quigg has lashed out at Britain's Got Talent winner George Sampson, branding the breakdancer a "jealous flop".

The 16-year-old X Factor star has claimed that Sampson posted abusive remarks about him on the internet recently.

Speaking to the Daily Star Sunday, Quigg complained: "I don't know what George's problem is. We met once and we spoke and it was fine. Then he posted loads of rude stuff about me on his website.

"Clearly it's jealousy. I mean, he was the only young heartthrob on the scene last year and now I'm here. And let's be honest, there's only so much dancing you can do.

"He tried bringing out a song but that was an absolute flop. What's he gonna do, dance until he's a pensioner?"

Quigg released his self-titled debut album last week. It has since topped the Irish chart and featured in the UK top twenty.

Meanwhile, 15-year-old Sampson recently announced that he is planning to launch a film career.
