Adam Rickitt

• Adam was born on May 29 in 1978. His star sign is Gemini and he grew up in county of Cheshire, in the north-west of England.

• He's part of a big family: There's his mum and dad plus his two older brothers Mark and Sam.

• His own pop star pad is in London's super-posh district of Chelsea.

• You won't often catch him wearing 'em in public - but Adam actually wears specs for when he's reading!

• His fave possession in the whole world is a v. ancient and fusty teddy bear that he's had since he was a little kid! He calls his furry friend Ogre and carries him around everywhere with him. He refuses to ever put him in the washing machine to freshen him up - pong alert!

• He's a v. sensitive bloke - definitely not afraid of showing his feelings. For instance, when the family cat got run over, Adam unashamedly cried for ages because he was so upset.

• In his teens, Adam used to suffer from the terrible illness bulimia. This is when people make themselves sick after eating. He is full recovered now and his favourite food is Frosties.

• He has a bit of a phobia about his hands - he thinks they're all flat from when he used to be a keen boxer.

• One of the things he's most scared of is sharks. That's because when he was on holiday as a little boy, his dad took him out boating and they were surrounded by a load of the fearsome fin-sters.
