Jamie Pugh, I nearly Quit
Jamie Pugh has said that he nearly left the set of Britain’s Got Talent before he even began his audition.
The 38-year-old widowed pizza delivery man won three “Yes” votes from the judges after his performance of ‘Bring Him Home’ from Les Miserables on last weekend’s show.
Pugh told The Mirror: “I wanted to go home. I didn’t sleep for three days before and I’m now on 40 fags a day.
“This is going to sound really weird – I fear success but I don’t fear failure. I’ve failed at a lot of things and I fear success because I’m Jamie. I’ve got to appear on a TV show and I’m dreading it.”
He added: “I’m a wreck – I’m not a star.”
His 35-year-old partner Donna Davies said: “When Jamie wanted to walk out of the audition I threatened him with divorce – well not quite because we aren’t married. But I said, ‘You have to do it. Go for the ride and see what happens.’”
