Darius: I'm Skint
Star's still In Debt Despite No1 Song
POP hunk Darius last night revealed he's still SKINT - despite notching a No1 hit.

The Scots singer - who topped the charts with Colourblind - admitted he's finding it tough paying off a £6000 student loan.

And the crooner insisted his bank account plunges into the red EVERY month - despite signing a three-album deal with Mercury records.

Darius said: "People think i'm an overnight millionaire because Colourblind went to No1 - but nothing could be further from the truth.
I basically signed a deal giving me an advance on royalties - but that all goes on the rent of my flat in London.
I'm always overdrawn at the bank and I still owe about £6000 that I borrowed when I was a student in Edinburgh.
I know the money will eventually start appearing but until then I can't do anything too flash - my bank manager sees to that."
Pals
Pop Idol hunk Darius, 22, from Bearsden, Glasgow, shares a London flat with posh IT girl Venetia Hibbert - who recently posed with fried eggs on her breasts.

But he insisted they're just good friends.

Darius added: "As soon as I'm seen talking to a girl everyone thinks i'm s******* her.
But we're just pals - there's nothing more to it than that."

Darius is expected to reach No1 again whjen new single Rushes hits the shops next month.

And Darius reckons The Beatles helped out as he cut debut album Dive In.

He revealed: "I recorded the songs using the same gear they used for three albums - and it totally freaked me out.
It was such a buzz knowing that my music was travelling through the same cables and wires as my heroes' did."

Darius added: "I have been hearing how this music should sound dancing around in my head since I was a kid.
Now I've been given the opportunity to make it all a reality and I'm going to make the most of it."
