James Blunt fears running out of beer
James Blunt’s “biggest fear” is not having enough
beer.
The 45-year-old singer has admitted he would panic if he ran out of the alcoholic beverage, but is confident that “would never happen” because his tour manager always makes sure he’s fully stocked while on tour, and he has plenty of other drinks to keep him going for years to come.
He said: “My biggest fear is running out of beer. But
that would never happen, because my tour manager is amazing. At my holiday
house in Ibiza I built a nightclub in the garden, and I was sponsored by two
vodka firms when we started out. One gave me 500 bottles of vodka. In the first
summer, I got through 50. I have nine years’ worth left – lunacy! Then Ciroc
Vodka sponsored me with 400 bottles. I have two decades of booze, so now I
actually bathe in it. If anyone needs a bath, come to me.”
The You’re Beautiful hitmaker loves a drink, and says he gets drunk fairly regularly.
He added: The last time I was really drunk was yesterday. I like to start the night with a beer. I have my own pub in Chelsea, and we serve a lager called the Fox & Fez, which is really good. Then I have good red wine, then vodka and tonics. If I make it to Jägerbombs, I know I’ve gone too far. But as my father always said, ‘Do it, just don’t get caught.’ “
