James first shot to fame on the 2012 series of the ITV singing competition, but after he was drawn into a number of social media arguments and had a series of public outbursts, he was dropped by Simon Cowell's Syco label.

However The Sun exclusively revealed the Middlesbrough-born star was resigned by the record company last year and James has never looked back since.

James will be supported on his tour by fellow X Factor alum Ella Henderson, who finished in sixth place in the same series as James, and has also gone on to have a number of hit records including Ghost.
