02/07/2011 - 13:27
Popstar to Operastar contestant Joseph Washbourn has revealed that he is keen to keep up his new-found opera skills - by becoming a wedding singer.
The Toploader star, who has made it to Sunday's semi-final despite being in the bottom two three weeks running, told The Sun he hoped he would be able to belt out a few arias at friends' parties and weddings.
However he added that he would not be singing opera at any future Toploader gigs.
"When it comes to a Toploader gig, you're going to get Toploader songs," he said.
"But opera is something I've had so much fun doing I might be busting it out at weddings and mates' parties."
And Joseph - who is favourite to get the boot on Sunday night - also said he thinks Joe McElderry will win the series.
"I think he's an expert at this type of show," he said. "He doesn't seem that nervous."
