A lot of people don’t know this, but on BGT you get a prize and you get to sing at the Royal Variety, but I got a lot of stuff I shouldn’t have got."I got the album deal and I got a tour, and I got certain things out of it that I wasn’t supposed to, and I always say to people that I got a lot more than I should have.
