The legend-in-the-making James Blunt pays a visit to the heaving Hot Press tent. Here's the result...

When James Blunt agreed to chat with HP man Stuart Clark, he probably didn't expect to reveal in front of a jam-packed crowd that "on my first weekend in Los Angeles I found myself in a swimming pool wth nine naked women making out with each other". Or that in the army he wore "a metal helmet and a white plume, armour and boots up to my thigh. I still wear that on weekends."
Find out what other surprises he had in store for the audience.
