JLS take on Robbie Williams in chart battle

JLS have revealed that they are looking forward to taking on Robbie Williams in the album charts next week. The X Factor stars will go head-to-head with the former Take That star's comeback album 'Reality Killed The Video Star'.

The boyband told reporters that they believe that their album `JLS' stands a chance of taking the top spot from Williams.

Singer Marvin Humes told the Daily Record: "There's a chance we could beat Robbie. It's incredible people are even thinking that we might.

"It's absolutely amazing to be releasing our first album and great to be going up against a giant like Robbie - it's insane. We are over the moon to be part of it.

"Regardless of the final position - whether we get top ten, top five or No.1 - it's still going to be a massive achievement for us."

JLS are hoping that their second single `Everybody In Love' will clinch the top spot in the charts on Sunday night.

Band member JB Gill claimed that their recent appearance on The X Factor had been responsible for some of their success.

He said: "It just shows the power of The X Factor.

"It is an incredible platform for musicians.
