News from Digital Spy:

Pete has been offered a record deal and is already lined up to work with Robbie Williams' former songwriter partner Guy Chambers.

The Big Brother winner will be launched as a solo artist rather than fronting his band Daddy Fantastic, and Chambers apparently has hopes of Pete becoming a "Billy Idol for the 21st Century".

A friend of the 24-year-old told The Sun: "Pete’s a fan of Billy Idol. Let’s face it, he looks a lot like him so Guy’s using that as a template."

and also
Pete has been accused of betraying his band Daddy Fantastic by planning to go solo.

As previously reported, the 24-year-old met up with songwriter Guy Chambers to discuss plans for a solo career. Pete's stunned bandmates claim that he is now refusing to return their calls.

"This was totally unexpected and Pete has completely stabbed his bandmates in the back," a source told the Sunday Mirror. "They gave him their full backing in the Big Brother house. Now they're gutted. They never thought he'd do this."

Yeh daddy fantastic anounced this on their myspace earlier. I can see petes ideas that he wants to go it alone but at teh end of the day his fame wont last that long. However his band are good and their music will be good with or without him!
