British singer James Blunt says he will legally change his name to something suggested by a fan, if his debut album 'Back to Bedlam', which was released 20 years ago, reaches number one in the charts.
Blunt said in a message on social media platform X, that he would let "the people decide" on the name if his re-released album hits the top spot.
The star asked fans to submit their ideas using the hashtag #jameswho. Within hours the post had over 2,000 comments with fans suggesting names such as Blunty McBluntface and Blames Junt.
