I think we'll be the judge of that James Arthur... Are we ready to forgive and forget?

Disgraced former X Factor Winner James Arthur speaking at a gig, hopes his new single will be picked up by radio after the last single performed terribly, reaching number 19.

Arthur hit the headlines last year after releasing a 'diss' rap containing anti-gay lyrics.

During an Edinburgh gig, in which he introduced his new single Get Down, it is reported that he said:

'This one will hopefully get played on the radio, cause I'm not a homophobe any more.'

I mean it must be true, even Rylan Clark has defended the Impossible singer.

What do you think? Forgive And Forget, or hold a grudge like a dog with a bone?
