The lovable George Ezra joined us backstage recently at a gig where he performed some of his biggest hits such as 'Shotgun', 'Paradise' and 'Budapest'. During his chat with us, George talked about THAT performance on Strictly Come Dancing.

George performed his massive hit single 'Shotgun' on the results show back in September, with some pretty amazing dancers around him, but there was one thing that made him incredibly nervous...

Speaking to us, George revealed the cameras were really distracting, adding the 'red light' on the camera kept catching his eye, making him remember he wasn't just doing a performance, he was actually 'performing in people's living rooms'.

The one and only Ed Sheeran has also tipped George for a BRIT Award, so we wanted to know what he thinks about that. He told Sarah-Jane Crawford, "I don't think you can hold your breath on these things, it would be lovely to get at BRIT, but it's always just flattering to be invited along."

With his amazingly distinctive voice, George Ezra is quickly becoming one of the most recognised male singers around the world right now. He released his second studio album 'Staying At Tamara's' in March 2018, which featured his huge hit singles 'Paradise' and 'Shotgun'. George Ezra will also be going on tour in 2019 and you can buy tickets to see George Ezra on Tour from Aloud.com
