Will Young saw therapist

Former Pop Idol winner Will Young has admitted he received therapy after his new-found fame caused him a crisis of confidence.

Will Young had admitted he had a course of therapy to boost his confidence after winning Pop Idol in 2002. "I had thought I was coping well with my job and being famous but I became scared of going out and meeting people. I was going into loony, reclusive-pop star mode, which is very easy to do because you're always busy and people tend to do what you want," Will told the Independent. "I went on the course and stood up and said, 'Hi, I'm Will, I'm a pop star and I'm not very confident.' It was like being in a Richard Curtis comedy. But it was extremely valuable. I'm going on another one soon. I'm looking forward to it."
