Stateside R&B sensation Jay Sean is steadily building up a following back here in the UK but he still can't quite believe the success he's had on the other side of the Atlantic.
The 26-year-old star had some difficult times making a name for himself and he told the Times newspaper all about the highs and lows of his career in a recent interview. He puts his success down to being highly driven, calling himself a 'supernerd' and revealing that his ambition also drove him to lose three stone to get in shape after he left school.
