It has been confirmed that Alexandra Burke's first single will be called "Bad Boys".
The single has been distributed amongst certain music reviewers in the past week.
Reviewer's have said the song is uptempo, got a catchy chorus and has a similar feel to Sugababe's new single "Get Sexy" leading to some people assuming it's produced by The Smeezingtons.
Alexandra is currently in LA finishing her debut album as well as making the video for the first single and doing the album shoot.
The album is expected to be released in October and will feature productions from Jay-Z, Stargate, RedOne and Timbaland as well as a possible Beyoncé duet.
The single and the video premier next month.

"Oooh, I heard her actual proper first single today!
It's called 'Bad Boys'. I really really liked it, but for some reason I found myself disappointed that that was the first Alexandra Burke single. I was just expecting something different, that's all. But that's just me. In the same way I like the new Sugababes single but am disappointed that it's their big comeback single.
It's very uptempo, very club orientated. Lots of massive beats. And the chorus is catchy enough too - Alexandra lamenting the fact that she can't help but be attracted to bad boys because of the chemistry that she always gets with them.
It'll be a huge hit of course, but when compared to say, 'My Man' by Jade Ewen, it's just not as instant. I only heard it once though so maybe it'll be one of those songs that clicks on the third listen."
Obviously unconfirmed. Alex has hinted on twitter that all the details will be officially revealed very soon. Think the producers are the Smeezingtons (Sugababes 'Get Sexy', Flo Rida 'Right Round').

I really wanted her to go down the R&B route rather than follow in the footsetps of Rihanna,Britney and Beyonce and release an album full of soulless Hip Pop.
But anyway im sure it'll be catchy so im excited to hear what she(or should i say her label) have come up with.
For the record, I liked that song.
