Rag'n'Bone Man requests framed EastEnders stars for his gig rider

This has to be the best rider request we’ve EVER heard of.

Rag ‘n’ Bone Man insists he is no “diva” but there is one “stupid” thing he has to have for his dressing room when he performs, and that’s a framed picture of an ‘EastEnders’ star on his wall.

The ‘Human’ hitmaker doesn’t care which Albert Square resident accompanies him back stage, a photo of any of the actors from the popular BBC One soap will do.

He said: “I’m not a diva, I only have one stupid thing on my rider which is a framed picture of and ‘EastEnders’ cast member.

“I’ve had loads so far, I’ve had Ian Beale, I’ve had Dot, I’ve got Sharon, it always changes.

“I hope someone will go a bit rogue and I’ll get Wellard the dog.

“I’m a big fan, I love ‘EastEnders’. The only show I watch religiously is ‘EastEnders’. It’s comfort TV, as I’ve watched it since I was a kid.”

The 32-year-old blues singer took home two BRIT Awards on Wednesday night (22.02.17) and the Critics’ Choice Award and British Breakthrough, and says he’s considering getting a tattoo of the gong as a keepsake as he loves the design by the late architect Zaha Hadid.

The heavily-tattooed hunk told the Daily Star newspaper: “I’ve thought about getting one to mark the BRITs.

“I like the design of the BRIT Award thing but I could look real pony is it wasn’t done too well.”
