I’m sticking with Oritse. I’m not entirely convinced it’s him, but I can’t think of anyone else who fits every clue.
The unnamed star has a string of successful albums and number one hits to his name...
This perhaps suggests he’s had, at the most, one number one album. Which fits with JLS.
...and has also been praised for his charity work.
He is/was ambassador for a couple of charities, including the MS Society. He spoke out about having to step down from his charity work after his rape arrest.
A source said: “His fans would be shocked.”
The fact he was previously accused of rape doesn’t mean his fans wouldn’t be shocked (as some posters are saying). He was found not guilty, and his band mates and the majority of JLS fans were fully behind him.
