Overview
Will Young reckons he's hugely underpaid by his boss - Simon Fuller.
A close friend told The Sun: "Will had to sign a contract when he won Pop Idol which gave Fuller a large percentage of what he earned. He had no choice but to sign, it was a condition of taking part in the show.
"But no one could have dreamed he would do so well. Now Will feels he has been given a fraction of the cash he's raked in for Fuller."
Since winning the TV talent search in February 2002 Young has notched up four No.1s in seven Top Five hits, says The Sun.
Young's friend added: "Will knows he earns a decent amount of money and is grateful for everything Simon has done. He values his advice hugely.
"But Will has been told that he has the potential to be a George Michael or a male Dido. So he has been seeking advice on how to get more money. Only his close friends and family know how he feels."
