Darius says Hear'Say is not for him
Darius Danesh is vowing to continue his pursuit of stardom, but not as the new member of Hear'say.
The band is holding auditions to find a replacement for Kym Marsh.
Darius says it would be funny to turn up but there is no way he is going to audition.
"I wish them luck because I think they're great but I'm more suited to being a solo performer than a group member.
"You will never, ever see me audition on TV again."
The Edinburgh University student was booted off the Pop Idol competition but insisted he was still "the luckiest boy in Britain".
He put on a brave face and insisted he was not upset at missing out on the Pop Idol title.
"I'm not only the luckiest boy in Britain, but the happiest. Everything that has happened to me has been incredible.
"I didn't see getting voted off Popstars as being rejection, and I don't see this year on Pop Idol as being rejection. I see it as being a great personal success," he said.
He will be meeting Pop Idol judges Nicki Chapman and Simon Cowell next week to discuss what the future holds.
