I love to write poetry.

Children are so precious.

I'm a proper mummy's boy.

I've always wanted to act.

You judge people as you meet them.

I don't see the point in being bitter.

Yes, I adore the fact that girls like me.

Once I got in the public eye there was no going back.

It's easy to have the wrong type of people around you.

I don't think that money makes you any better brought up than I was.

I can never go to a clairvoyant. I'd be too afraid of what they might tap into.

My maxim is that no one's ever made it. I haven't and that's why I work my hardest.

Obviously there are a lot of 12-year-olds over in America who are incredible singers.

I'd love to venture into TV or do some gritty dramas - Guy Ritchie, that kind of thing.

What I said to my family is, 'Our history is our own. Let people write what they want, we know who we are.

I love a challenge, and I think it's when people least expect you to do something that you often do your best.

Have you any idea what it's like to live under the same roof as four women? Armageddon is the best word for it.

I put my money in property and I love merchandise; such as Muhammad Ali boxing gloves. It's about stability for the future.

If somebody tells me I'm famous I say, 'I'm not.' I can't see myself as famous and I don't think I'll ever call myself famous. I definitely don't feel famous. To me, this is just a job.

I grew up in Manchester in a big Irish family - there are seven of us in all - so my life has always been about role-playing, about doing anything for a laugh. I'm always joking about; that's the way I am.

I would never have been discovered without the X Factor. I was just doing the working men's clubs and I loved doing that. That was the life for me at that time. I never expected to be noticed doing that, that's why I went for X Factor by myself.
