James Morrison: My sister used to dress me up as a girl

Singer confesses his embarrassing childhood games

James Morrison has written a song about his sister, Dream On Hayley

James Morrison has admitted that his sister Hayley used to get him into embarrassing situations when he was a kid.

‘Hayley used to get me to do all sorts of f***ing weird stuff,’ he says. ‘She used to dress me up as a girl and pretend I was her mate.

‘Because she was my big sister I’d just do what she told me to. Obviously it go to a point where it was: "I’m not bloody doing that."’

James, 24, says as a teenager he also tried to copy his big sister's dance steps.

‘I’d try to nick her moves,’ he tells The Sunday Times Magazine. ‘Though obviously a lot of them were feminine so there was only so much I could learn.’

James’ new single You Make It Real is out now.
