John Newman: 'I get mistaken for Sam Smith all the time'

Singer John Newman has revealed that he constantly gets mistaken for 'Stay With Me' hitmaker Sam Smith and it's such a common occurrence that it happened at a press event recently.

Speaking to the Kiss FM breakfast show, the 'Love Me Again' star admitted that it's getting quite bad and he's becoming tired of it happening so often: 

"I get confused for Sam Smith, like, day in, day out. It's bad though. There was a press mess up at one point as well which didn't help, I was doing some press the other day and it was for this photography thing. The guy said he was a huge fan, and I looked down at the floor and he had loads of references of how they wanted to shoot Sam Smith."

Newman added: "I said 'you think I'm Sam Smith' and then he walked off."
