Christian's Profile

Name
Christian Ingebrigtsen.

Date of birth
25th January 1977 in Oslo, Norway.

Family
Mum, Dad, one younger brother and one older half-sister.

Description
Sensitive, romantic, and quite sensible, I guess.

The story so far
Dad used to be a famous pop star in Norway, started the piano very young, after secondary school came to the UK to study at Paul McCartney's 'Fame' school in Liverpool.

Instruments
I'm a classical pianist and I play the guitar well enough to play all the guitars on the new album. I can also play the bass a little and various flutes. Once you play one instrument, you can pretty much make any instrument sound OK though I find it really difficult to play brass.

Best personal moment
Things are really beginning to fit into place at the moment. I used to work and work and work, but I've now got a nice house, a nice car and a good set of stable friends all over London!

Best a1 moment so far
The BRIT Award, Best International Artist in the MTV Mandarin Awards and when we were in the Philippines we realised we'd gone six-times platinum! But I've also had a tremendous sense of satisfaction making this new album - I played all the guitars, the bass and some piano.

Best a1 moment you can imagine
The best thing would be for as many people in the world as possible to appreciate the music and that we are musicians and songwriters and that we're trying really hard to be good guys!

Favourite celebrity you've met
Lionel Ritchie, without a doubt. We've met him a few times and he always remembers us. He's a nice guy, really genuine and friendly.

Celebrity you'd still like to meet
I'd love to meet Aerosmith and Bruce Springsteen.

Is there anything you miss out on because you're famous
Not really! But if anything, it's quality time with family and friends because there's never enough time. It requires a lot of understanding from the people you love.

Do you think you've got a soulmate out there
Yes, I believe there are soulmates, and I'm hoping real bad that I'll meet her. I really just want someone who's like me, but a girl! Someone I can share everything with.

Do you believe in love
Yes, definitely. Love is the most important thing, it helps decide everything you do!

We catch you on a Saturday night off, what are you doing?
Meeting up with friends. We might have a waffle party round my house or just play games, watch TV, talk or listen to music.

We burst into your flat on a Sunday morning, what are you doing
I'm in a hurry trying to make it in time for church! There's a Norwegian seaman's church in London, just a little oasis of Norway that I go to every Sunday if I can, but I'm always late.

Number one musical hero
Bruce Springsteen - the greatest musical and lyrical writer of all time.

Who made you want to be a pop star?
I guess Bruce Springsteen and my dad - my dad was a pop star in Norway, so I always wanted to be a bit like him.

Top three albums
Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen, Listen Without Prejudice by George Michael and then it gets very difficult as there are so many. A lot of Aerosmith fans will disagree, but I think Nine Lives.

A song that always makes you get down
"All Night Long" by Lionel Ritchie.

A song that always gets you in the mood
There's a whole album by Boyz II Men called Evolution, which is cool for lovin'!

A song that you always sing in the shower
Usually in the shower I sing new ideas in my head.

What's your motto
"Smile to the world, and the world will smile back."
