Default Darius Danesh: Pop idol and West End star dies aged 41



Singer and actor Darius Danesh, who rose to fame on ITV talent shows Popstars and Pop Idol two decades ago, has died at the age of 41.

He came third on Pop Idol behind Will Young and Gareth Gates in 2002.

The Scot became a household name thanks to his theatrical rendition of Britney Spears Hit Me Baby One More Time.

He went on to become a West End star, appearing in musicals like Chicago and the Oliver Award-winning Guys and Dolls.

The Telegraph has reported he died on August 11th.

Could be a misprint.

Ah no how sad

Colourblind is such a great tune, one of those that I can go years without hearing it then still remember every word when it comes on

Look at the abusive replies to this tweet by a person of colour for just tweeting out the facts that are so far revealed.

More or less the same as what you just posted.

He must have touched some nerve with them, I don't know what it could be.
