"Because the worst thing that can happen to you in the industry are things like 'X Factor' and instant fame on television, where you have no experience of playing live.
"You get put on stage, you go, and you can't do it. That's the worst thing. 'American Idol', just the worst. Take risks. Go and play in a pub."
