The English singer and musician’s tour rider includes everything from grooming to usual food, juice and alcohol requests.

When asked what’s on his rider, he said: ”I have clean white socks. I have a lot of them on my rider.

”I have hairspray, hair gel, and a leather shoe-polish brush. They’re the weirdest things I think.

”And then the normal things. I have loads of vegetables and juice and things to keep me feeling alright. And then plenty of booze for when the evening gets good.”

It seems that John always has a lot of socks to choose from every day.

The ‘Love Me Again’ star admitted: ”We keep them in my stage clothes bag – there’s got to be 50 pairs in there.”

And the smart star insists he never dresses down.

He told Heat: ”I’m actually always in suit trousers. All the time.”

However, John sometimes finds his hair difficult to manage.

He said: ”I’d give my hair five [out of 10] because the side drops down and that’s annoying.

”The preparation itself takes minutes. Get out of the shower, put some hair gel in, slick it back and spray it.”
