"Stand, look down the camera and give it to 'em." [advice to The X Factor contestants 2009]

"I'm quite obviously not the world's most handsome man - I'm the second world's most handsome man!"

"There's no point regretting things. If you can't do the time, don't do the crime. Life's too short to worry about things I've said."

"I couldn't live without my music, man. Or me mum."

"I didn't lose my mind, it was mine to give away."

"I've nothing against anyone following their dreams -- but not if they're crap."
