X Factor contestant Christopher Maloney has revealed that he received "offers" of a record deal just 20 minutes after he was eliminated.

The 34-year-old wild card contestant came third on the show last night (Dec 8), leaving Jahmene Douglas and James Arthur to battle out for the crown.

But, it seems success is already on the way to the former call centre worker, as when asked by Xtra Factor hosts Caroline Flack and Olly Murs about what the future holds, Maloney replied: "At the minute I'm just taking everything in.

"There's been a few offers made. I've only been out of the competition 20 minutes and there's been quite a few offers. So watch this space."

Maloney, who was mentored by Gary Barlow, duetted with the Take That star last night, said that the experience was "amazing", adding: "It just goes to show how far I've come from my first audition."
