Quotes about Steve’s autobiography “Getting Over The X”
If you’re thinking of going on The X Factor you need two things. An application form and a copy of this book. The hardback version of this book has a spine. Unlike some of the people in it.’
Ian Hyland, The Mirror
‘It’s got the snappiest title of any autobiography out this year and Steve’s X Factor revelations are truly eye-opening. No fan of Steve’s or the shows should be without a copy!’
