Example on meeting Olympic athlete Jessica Ennis: 'I was really, really shy'

British hitmaker Example has revealed that meeting Olympic gold medalist Jessica Ennis was fantastic although he found himself short of words.

The 'Changed The Way You Kiss Me' singer came face-to-face with Ennis at a secret Stone Roses gig recently and admitted that he became a little star-struck, which took him by surprise:

"I didn't know what to say. I'm usually so confident around women and in your face. It was the first time in five or six years where I've been really, really shy and didn't know what to do."

"Even when I met her [points at girlfriend] and she's gorgeous, I was like 'yeah how you doing'... I didn't know what to say to Jess, I was like 'so what have you eaten today'?"
