Olly Murs has finally spoken out after that silver suited performance… the one where he earned himself the nickname Olly ‘The Bulge’ Murs.
Since the 2009 X Factor performance, Olly has drawn attention to his nether regions.
But he has now confirmed the actual size of his bulge and said he never tried to emphasise it… phew, we can breathe now.
“Maybe 13 centimetres? That’s what I’d go with, it’s definitely not 20cm. It would be quite big. I think 13cm,” Olly admitted to Heat magazine.
The cheeky Essex chap also admitted that he isn’t phased by his package being a regular topic in the media.
“It doesn’t bother me, I have never, honest to God, tried to emphasise it. It has always been other people.”
“I have never thought of myself as someone who has a big bulge. But this is probably the first time I will be arrogant by saying I have never had a complaint…it’s not about the size; it’s what you can do with it that counts.
“It’s not about quantity, it’s about quality. And I am all about quality.”
Well, that’s fantastic to know Murs!
And Murs is quality for reasons other than his bulge too…
The singer scored his fourth number one single in the UK chart on Sunday with Troublemaker featuring Flo Rida.
“It was great to go up against Girls Aloud, I wasn’t expecting to get a number one, I was obviously expecting Girls Aloud to take it because they’ve come back and they’re huge”, Olly said at a press conference yesterday.
“I was just happy to tip them to number one and it’s bittersweet because it was a charity single as well so I obviously felt bad about that”, Olly admitted.
You’re just too nice Olly!
As for the bulge… we found this video to jog your memory!
