The most revealing part of the story is that MPs are using Parliamentary time to ask about this!!!! I mean, there can't be anything else for them to do I suppose, what with happy students and a high-flying economic situation .... oh, wait ....
At the end of the day she a) has a contract with X-factor/Cowell - if the contract says she can't do other things she can't do other things (plus the producers have said they haven't stopped her anyway!) - and b) she shouldn't even be in the country!

"X Factor’s producers, Talkback Thames, last night claimed it was Gamu’s decision not to promote the song."
A spokesman said: “We have not banned Gamu from promoting the single.”
I'm fairly good with interpreting legal jargon; Its all about reading between the lines.
Having said that, the actual act of saying she is contractualy obliged not to promote other records outside of X-factor could be considered as promotion, and there is probably a clause in the contact pertaining to it, so she's probably screwed now anyway. May as well go ahead and do it
On the otherhand, it could all be **** and bull conjured up by Gamu's PR manager to create some media stir (anything that gets a headline in the media is good for business), however, such an act maybe considered as defamatory.
....time will tell

She'll be under contract at least until the show ends if not 12 months from when the show ends.
Last year it emerged that the contract they enter into gives a certain management company first refusal on any artist discovered on the show. There was some ruckus over Jedward signing a management contract and who has rights on that contract.
The article is correct, she will be under contract and will be obliged not to promote the single.
What the hell the due process of tort has to do with Parliament is beyond me!
