Will Young: "I was miserable and addicted to porn"Will Young has admitted that he was "miserable" last year. The singer released the album 'Echoes' in August 2011, which charted at No.1 in the UK. Despite the record's impact, the Pop Idol winner told Style that he wasn't buoyed by his success - conversely, he was left feeling down. Young added that he believes he was addicted to porn during this time and was wrapped up in a fantasy desire for love. He said: "Addictions can be anything. Last year I moved into my new house, my album went to number one and I was miserable. And it doesn't even help when you have loads of money." Young also opened up on his sexuality as a youngster, with the 'Jealousy' man admitting that he initially felt "ashamed" about being gay. He added: "What I've realised is that growing up knowing I was gay from a young age, I always felt extremely ashamed. It's a cliche but it's true. I've only just realised how s**t that's made me feel about myself for a very, very long time."
