Top Of The Pops - July 1998

he's coming home
kav is coming home!

After six months away Kav was so desperate to play with his TOTP
mates again that he squeezed into the nearest postbox
(OK, he hailed a taxi but only coz he couldn't fit through the slot!)

Kav, You've grown your hair! Thought you said long hair makes you look girly?
It used to but I've lost my chubby face and I've sprouted some stubble so I don't get mistaken for a lady anymore! I'm not sure about it though. Maybe I'll get it all shaved off for the second single off the album!

You Haven't released the First yet! What's it about?
It's called Special Kind Of Something. It's about when I first became a pop star. I hung around the wrong circles for a while and there's stuff I saw which I'd rather not seen so young.

Like What?
Messy Things. Robbie's a prime example. I was lucky to have people around me who wouldn't let me become like that. It's knowing your limits and when to stop.

You Wrote it from the Heart then?
Yeah. There's a line that goes 'Nobody said I'd feel this pain.' That's reffering to the loneliness I've felt (Suddenly looking very much in pain.) I need to be in love you know.

Any romance while you were away?
(Blushing redder than the postbox.) Yeah, there was this Australian girl called Kylie who I met in LA. She's a make-up artist and we hung out for a while but I had to move to Italy so that was the end of if.

How was Italy?
I lived in a huuuge villa by the sea and it was so quiet there I totally chilled out. I was on a real spiritual vibe - reading, lighting joss sticks, watching the sun set...

Do You Think You've changed in any way?
I've grown up a lot and I'm starting to like myself more. I used to put on this cheeky chappy Northerner fromt all the time. I'm a lot more honest now. Every night I look in the mirror ans say to myself, 'You're a geek but I love ya!'

Did you feel Lonely while you were slogging away in Italy?
Yeah, I missed me mum and dad and me mates. I used to get pretty depressed about that. I really missed hearing all the pop gossip too. I had to read 'TOTP magazine' to sind out all the latest stuff. I'm still dying to hear about Ronan's Wedding!

Have You Turned Down any  Job Offers over the past few months?
Yeah , there were two huge contracts. One was a film called ....erm Virtual Reality, or something. It's the next big Brit movie and they wanted me for the lead role. The other was for the lead in the musical 'Saturday Night Fever.' I really wanted that but I'm glad I said no coz I'm so chuffed with my new album.

Finally, what are you looking forward to most, now you're home?
Performing songs I enjoy. I can't wait to get back on TOTP too. I'm gonna run round like a madman and tear into the canteen shouting, "Hey everyone, I'm back!"

HOW OUT OF TOUCH HAS KAV BEEN?
1. Where did Corrie's Nick and Leanne get married?
Kav: Oh Dear. Pass TOTP: Gretna Green actually.
2. Who are Prince Will's favourtie pop group?
Kav: Spice Girls. TOTP: All Saints, you plank!
3.Which two pop peeps snogged on camera after
their TOTP performance?
Kav:Jamie Theakston and Natalie All Saints.
TOTP: Nope, Rene and Lene Aqua.
Kav: They never...!
4.Which band have spoken about filming, in their words a
"Full Monty" style film?
Kav: Em Five? TOTP: No Boyzone You clot!
Kav: I'm trying to be modern and it's not working!
5.Which pop star was linked, briefly, to Leonardo DiCaprio.
Kav:Emma Bunton. TOTP: Correct!
Kav: Phew! At least I'm not a complete dunce!

Scores on the Doors:
One out of five. Ok, we'll let you off Kav, but only coz you've spent the last six months
working on your scorching hot new songs. And coz you didn't fall off the postbox
once. Even when the old lady  popped her letter between your legs.
