No one could accuse Olly Murs of being low in self confidence! The X Factor wannabe has been singing his praises today, even describing himself as the next Justin Timberlake.

The 25 year old impressed judges and audience alike on Saturday’s X Factor and he know’s just why. He told The Sun:

“I don’t want to sound big-headed or anything but I’ve got something special – I’m not just someone who can sing.

“I can dance and sing. I see myself like Justin Timberlake, Neo or Chris Brown.”

He added: “I think I could well be more successful than the previous male winners.

“Leon Jackson, Shayne Ward, Steve Brookstein are all good singers – maybe better than me.

“But I’ve got the dancing and I know that will put me ahead.

“I’m quite a shy person but that doesn’t stop me from knowing I’ve got talent.”

Shy, but not embarrassed by all the extra attention he’s received this weekend. He said:

“It’s gone crazy, I’ve never been so popular. All these girls are messaging me and saying I’m hot.

“It’s a real shock because I’ve never been the guy that pulled all the girls. I haven’t had a proper girlfriend for years.”

I feel for him, I really do!
