George Sampson
Georgemania swept the nation yesterday as the break dancing champ George Sampson went on a flying visit of the UK to launch his debut single Get Up On The Dancefloor/Headz Up.
George took to the skies in a private jet making stops at Zavvi Stores in Manchester, Birmingham and London.
In each city hoards of fans had been waiting hours, all eager to meet him and many of them showering him with gifts of sweets, caps and teddies. Some were so overwhelmed at meeting the young heat throb that they were in tears afterwards.
About the signings George said “It was so cool. Flying by private jet around the country and meeting my fans was incredible – loads of them were really hot too!â€
However, due to a technical glitch, George’s single was unavailable for download on iTunes for the first 2 days it was on sale. George now is the underdog in the chart battle, as he takes on pop royalty including Take That, McFly and Same Difference.
An insider said "This is a complete c*ck-up. George will be devastated when he hears he's missed out on so many sales. Hopefully his fans will really get behind him now as he needs their help.â€
