Matt Cardle has aired his views on the conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 (PA) Matt Cardle has taken a break from promoting his album Letters to reveal his views on the conspiracy theories behind the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the US.
The X Factor winner told the Big Issue magazine that something is 'not quite right" about the 'whole 9/11 thing'.
'I think the way it was portrayed on TV and who was responsible and the way it happened was not the way it happened. It's just not what they say it is.'
The Run For Your Life singer said that some of the conspiracy theories surrounding the attacks on the US over ten years ago 'may be bulls**t', as well as the particular theory he believes to be true.
'But all I do know is what they're [the US government] saying is bulls**t.
'From the things I've seen... I don't care what anyone says. To not question it is silly, I think,' he continued.
A career in politics may be in front of the singer/songwriter after it was revealed earlier this week that his album is being outsold by almost two copies to one by Noel Gallagher's debut solo album.
But, the X Factor winner said he's not concerned where his single and album end up in the charts, saying: 'I just want to do the best I can. I know that's a cop out to say but I've always been dreaming big and wanting to achieve the best I can.'

At least the Metro didn't totally try and make him look like a...
"wiskey drinking loud-mouth" as the UK's favourite source of Cat Litter Box Liner THE SUN tried to do (below)
MATT Cardle must have been on the whisky to talk of conspiracy theories behind the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
The X Factor winner gave the baffling chat to Big Issue magazine.
Why he didn't stick to his specialist subjects — music, booze and girls — is beyond me.
He told the mag: "The whole 9/11 thing... something's not quite right there.
"I think the way it was portrayed on TV and who was responsible and the way it happened was not the way it happened. It's just not what they say it is."
Thankfully he then attempted to downplay his claims — but that didn't stop the hole he was digging from getting any deeper.
He said: "Other conspiracies might be true and the one I believe might also be bulls**t.
"But all I do know is what they're saying is bulls**t.
"From the things I've seen... I don't care what anyone says. To not question it is silly, I think."
The odd quotes aren't quite in the same league as Lee Ryan's 9/11 conclusion — saying the attacks weren't as newsworthy as the plight of whales — but they're not far away.
Matt is a decent bloke and probably didn't mean to come across in the manner he has.
Hopefully in future he'll let his music do the talking and leave the crackpot theories to others. His debut album, Letters, is likely to get to No2 in the charts this weekend which is a big achievement.
