Olly Murs training to become magician

OHMYGOSSIP — Olly Murs is training to become a magician.
The 32-year-old singer has revealed he’s started to study “card tricks” whilst on the road in between shows, in order to keep his mind off going out “to meet girls”.
He said: “I’m trying to be good at the moment.
“I don’t want to go out and I’m trying not to meet girls. I just want to be cool and stay chilled, so I’ve been learning card tricks. I’m really obsessed.
“One of my friends taught me and now I go online and practice them.”
And the ‘You Don’t Know Love’ hitmaker – who is currently on a lengthy 24-date tour of the UK – admits his new hobby isn’t just useful for keeping him in check when it comes to the ladies, as it also helps him get his “head straight” and “re-focused” in between his hectic touring life.
He added: “In this industry you go through so much, there’s so much going on, sometimes I need to take myself away from it all and get my head straight – get myself re-focused.
“With Ed Sheeran, hearing what he’s been doing while he’s been away for a year travelling the world.
“He probably needed to get away from it all. For me, it’s similar – I go back to Essex and see my friends. I learn new tricks and do something completely different to music. It gives me a reality check.
“I’m really enjoying learning – it’s fun.”
But the ‘Troublemaker’ singer has no interest in taking his magical skills to the stage though, as he’d rather entertain with his voice.
He joked to The Sun newspaper: “You won’t see me on ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ – but you might find me in the Magic Circle one day.”
