X Factor star Matt Terry reveals he is scared about failure after the show is over
MATT Terry has revealed that he fears failure after the X Factor is over.
The 23-year-old singer is keen to get straight into the studio and work hard to make sure that he will be successful.
Speaking to the , he said: "It's nerve-racking to know you could do well on the show and it still might not happen for you.
"I feel like it depends on who you are."
Matt added: "If you want it that much and you're prepared to work hard then you can make it happen."
He also revealed that he wants to get straight into the studio after the singing competition finishes and admitted that he'd love to be writing his own songs: "I'd love to get my own stuff out there."
On tonight's show Matt will be singing Sam Smith’s Bond theme Writing’s On The Wall, which he sang on the Movies weekend, winning the praise of Smith for his performance.
Matt revealed that Sam had been in contact with him after the show and said: “Sam messaged me afterwards saying it was unreal and how proud he was that I smashed it. To have his support is amazing.”
Unfortunately for Matt though, it was not enough to convince Sam to duet with him on last night's show and instead he paired up with mentor Nicole Scherzinger to sing Prince’s Purple Rain.
