X Factor - Leon Jackson duets with Michael Buble

6 December 2007 - Leon Jackson wowed the crowds at Wembley Arena when he performed a duet with Michael Buble, it has been revealed.

The Scottish singer, who is now in the final four of X Factor, was invited on stage by the Canadian crooner when he played a concert at the London venue this week.

And Leon, who previously worked as a shop assistant before entering the talent contest, was shocked to join Buble for his hit single Home.

"That's the pinnacle for me, man," he said of the experience. "I've grown up in the last few years listening to Michael Buble and I got to sing with him. I just can't explain it."

All contestants on the show were given a masterclass by the singer this week, in preparation for the upcoming semi-finals.

According to the Times, Welsh Billy Idol-lookalike Rhydian Roberts is favourite with the bookies to win, followed by Leon.

Same Difference and Niki Evans are also in the running for the £1 million recording contract prize and are being mentored by Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh respectively.
