Darius Danesh (born August 19, 1980), British singer, is best known for
being a finalist on the British version of Pop Idol, coming in third behind
Will Young and Gareth Gates. His first single, "Colourblind", entered the UK
charts at number one.
Darius was born in Bearsden, Glasgow and educated at Glasgow Academy (not to
be confused with the live music venue of a similar name). He then went on to
study English and Philosophy at Edinburgh University, although he did not
complete this degree due to his success with Pop Idol. Both of his parents
are doctors, and he has two brothers, Aria and Cyrus. All three have names
rooted in their Persian heritage.

Darius' first attempt at fame on ITV's 'Popstars' made him a national
laughing stock, with an octave-switching rendition of Britney Spears' "Hit
Me Baby (One More Time)". However, a clean-shaven and ponytail-less Darius
on Pop Idol saw his image transformed and a clean slate given from fans.
Darius is currently playing Billy Flynn in the London West End production of
Chicago at the Adelphi Theatre. (21st November 2005 - 14th January 2006) **
