Busking Tunstall's early brush with fame through celeb tip.
Take That KT!

KT Tunstall has revealed she had some celebrity, er, sponsorship during her pre-fame busking days. At one of her early streetside gigs, who did she suddenly see throwing her some cash? Only Take That's Mark Owen!

"Mark threw a pound into my guitar case," KT revealed to Channel 4's Popworld. A quid Mark? How deep were your pockets back then?

"Now, years down the road, it's all changed," says KT. "When we met recently I brought it up with him and thanked him for his support. Mark jokingly replied that one day he might have to ask for it back if the comeback doesn't go to plan."

Hold on to your cash KT - depending on the success of their reported upcoming tour, Mark may be in need of a quid or five!


Check out KT at The Collective.
