Biography...

Will shot to fame in 2002 when he became the winner of ITV's Pop Idol contest.  The former politics student beat the other Popstar hopefuls after receiving 4.6 million votes!!

His first single Anything is Possible/Evergreen shot straight to number one and became the fastest selling debut single ever, selling over 1.1million copies in a week.  He has continued this success with his first album, From Now On, going triple platinum while his second album, Friday's Child is currently five times platinum.

He has won two Brit Awards, sung with James Brown and Burt Bacharach, performed for the Queen at Buckingham Palace, and was heralded 'The President Of Pop' by UK broadsheet newspaper, The Independent.

After releasing a third album, Keep On, Wills growth musically is clearly a source of considerable pleasure. 'If I was in this to be famous, I would feel like, 'oh great! I got on the cover of Heat!' And that defines success to some people. Success for me was becoming a professional singer. I'm always saying 'this is wonderful, I can't believe this is my day job!''

In March 2002 Will announced that he was gay by saying "It's time to tell my fans I'm gay.  It's totally no big deal, just part of who I am. For me it's normal and nothing to be ashamed about... I always try to be honest and true to myself."
