Sex Pistols
Singer reveals what gives him the shivers...
The Sex Pistols’ frontman John Lydon has revealed that he used to be petrified of being in front of a camera.
The singer explained to NME.COM that his vanity meant that he creased up whenever a camera was pointed his way.
“My big fear used to be being in front of a camera – I had to learnt to conquer vanity,” he explained. “You’re always aware of your septic spot, you want to look good.
“To learn to be yourself is a lifetime’s job. But if you can get there, it’s a marvellous reward.”
